“Turnovers are a huge element and issue in this game. Whenever you can control that in your favor, it makes a huge difference and generally leads to winning. It’s interesting that New England over the years has done such a great job taking care of the football, particularly in fumble situations, is not turning over to interceptions and throwing a shut out. That’s a big time factor that leads to winning. It’s one of the most important issues that you can stress. They do a fantastic job of it, we’ve always stressed it, we’ve done a really good job of it over the years and we share that concern.” - Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll
