Seahawks Start Fast, Then Survive “Lousy” Second Half In Win at Atlanta. - Seahawks.com

“Great job by them, great job,” Carroll said. “Their resolve to keep fighting and clawing and scratching, they got physical, took over the game, really. Fortunate we were out ahead enough to hold them off. But it was a great testament to Danny and what he's doing with these guys, the mentality and attitude and all of that. Backup quarterback threw the ball for a million yards today. Did a great job. They have a lot of stuff to build on.”

Said linebacker K.J. Wright: “Obviously we’re happy with the win, it’s just that we want to win in a more beautiful fashion. But it happens, they’re a hard-working team, they fought to the very end. That’s a tribute to DQ, he just made sure those guys kept battling, kept fighting with a backup quarterback. So they’re a good football team as well… When it comes to the second half, we’ve just got to be able to continue to jump on them, regardless of what the score is, continue to go out there and play. Because you can’t give a team a chance. When you give a team a chance, they’re going to continue to play, and they did exactly that, came back. So for us, that’s something we’ve got to learn.”

But while it’s easy to nitpick after the Seahawks turned a potential blowout into a tense second half, they feel like they’re in very good shape from a big-picture standpoint. Sunday’s win improved Seattle’s record to 6-2 halfway through the season, a very strong record especially considering the Seahawks have traditionally been a strong finishing team under Carroll. The Seahawks also showed once again that they’re a very good road team, improving to 4-0 this season away from CenturyLink Field, including a 3-0 record in 10 a.m. PT kickoffs. Add it all up, and that’s a strong first half for a young team that still feels like it’s finding its way.

“We don't quite have it yet, we're not quite there,” Carroll said. “In one regard to be 6-2 and to be feeling that isn't so bad. We got a ways to go here, but we're going to finish. This club has finished forever and we're going to do it again and this, these next eight weeks will tell the whole story for everybody in the league. This story is not written. You guys write the stories thinking that you know, but it ain't written yet for real. So we have a chance to do our part and we're going to see if we can cause some problems for the rest of the league.”

Said linebacker Bobby Wagner, who on Sunday became the franchise’s all-time leading tackler, “Obviously, we have to finish better, we have to play better, but at the end of the day, we’re 6-2 with things to clean up, we can be happy about that.”
