The Seattle Seahawks squandered a double-digit lead at home against the Denver Broncos on Sunday, but that was all good with Russell Wilson.
The Seahawks star actually preferred the game go to an extra period.
“I know I shouldn’t say this,” Wilson told Peter King of TheMMQB.com, “but I actually wanted overtime. Of course I want to win in regulation, but overtime is so much fun. I live for those moments.”
Wilson voiced that opinion to his teammates when he addressed them before the extra period.
“This is what we live for, fellas: championship moments,” Wilson said. “Let’s go out and embrace it.”
