With Pat Kirwan and Jim Miller (TR's replacement). Feel free to add, I may have missed a few things.
On injury: No lingering affects after missing two games and then playing @Rams. It felt good to play again, feeling a bit sore after the game but only the usual sort of game soreness.
Rams game: Wagner knew it was going to be a tough game and none of them took it lightly. They remembered what a brawl it was last season @STL and were expecting the same this season. The Rams offensive scheme was very similar with Kellen to what it was with Bradford, they opened up the playbook a bit more in the second half because their running game was doing well.
Run defense vs. Rams: Most of the credit for the Rams success goes to Zac Stacy making good cutback runs. Our defense was extremely aggressive and over pursued a few times. They have looked at that closely and Wagner is confident it will be cleaned up. Stopping the run remains a focus for the team.
On TB game: Wagner thinks the Bucs have much better personnel then their record would suggest and is confident the Seahawks will come to play hard. No matter who they play at home they feed off the crowd to play hard, and they know that anybody coming into Seattle is going to want to do something that very few people do (win @ SEA). Protecting their home field is critical and no chance of the Seahawks ever overlooking any opponent in Seattle.
On remainder of season: Coaches will give them some easy practice days to make sure they stay fresh in the second half and finish on a strong note going into the playoffs.
