Q: Can you take us through the first touchdown?
Sellers: We’ve been practicing that play for a while now. We just knew that we high-lowed that defender right there. If he took the flat we had that if he dropped back we had the flat. We just practiced it all week and go out there and execute it.
Q: LaNorris did you dance or celebrate in the locker room?
Sellers: I did what I could. I was happy. I’m not really a dancer but I celebrated.
Q: How do you make sure that whether you have a good or bad game it isn’t a blanket statement for you?
Sellers: I really just take it day-by-day. People are going to say what they want to say regardless, no matter if you do good or bad. When you’re down, they’re going to talk down, when you’re up they’re going to praise you, so I just take it game-by-game.
Q: You had some receivers step up and it seemed like you were seeing the field a lot better in the second half, did you feel more comfortable?
Sellers: I felt a lot more comfortable than last week. I just had to get that game in my system. Once we started rolling, started getting completions, started moving the ball I feel like we were going.
Q: So you felt pretty good all game?
Sellers: Yeah, yeah.
