Cardinals WR Steve Breaston
On going over 1,000 yards receiving:
"Personally it is a blessing. I know before this season my expectations were like 600 yards and 40 receptions. Everybody has gotten involved in the passing game this year and Kurt (Warner) did a great job of spreading the ball around. I am happy and even happier that we won the game."

On his feeling when Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie almost ran the interception in for a touchdown:
"My feeling was--I don't know--I was watching him and I was happy for him. He just said he lost it and I must being doing something right in my life for him to just lose the ball like that. I should have had it before that, I should have gone the extra yard. It worked out that I did get it. I guess I am just blessed."

Seahawks QB Matt Hasselbeck
On how he feels physically after his injury:
“I’m not concerned at all. I’m not concerned one bit. I feel great. I’m on a timeline; a conservative timeline. But I feel like I’ll be ready to go - first mini-camp, even before then, opening of winter workouts, March 31st or whatever it is.”

On what Head Coach Mike Holmgren meant for his career:
“He turned the Green Bay franchise around. I was fortunate enough to get on board the train after they had gone to a couple of Super Bowls, and I was able to enjoy some of that success. And here in Seattle, he turned this franchise around. I got here in time for the hard times and was able to go through the journey of turning it around with him. I think that’s his legacy. I’m just really happy that I got to be a part of it.”

Opening statement:
"I think we gave it a good go for a while and we got beat by some really fine players. (Larry) Fitzgerald is one of the best, plus he's a tremendous kid. I told Ken (Whisenhunt) and Russ (Grimm) and those guys after the game -- and I meant it -- they've worked really hard to get to this point and I wish them well in the playoffs. The Seahawks and the Cardinals are going to battle it out every year and we'll be back next year and hopefully have a few more of our guys. I was very proud of the way the players battled and it was a great effort -- we just ran out of guys. Kyle Williams, the only guy who really got hurt, had a concussion and they're going to take him to the hospital -- but I think it's a quick deal and I believe he'll be able to fly back with us."

Mike Holmgren was funny after the game. He said he has been getting a lump in his throat all week because everybody has been so kind, from opposing coaches to players to officials. Boling then asked him about his "special relationship with the officials," to which Holmgren replied, "OK, let's not get carried away."

He explained that he has pregame meetings with the officials to discuss things that might arise in the games (he was not specific about what they discussed) and then when something happened, he referenced that meeting and the officials acted as if they didn't remember.

Then when Kyle Williams went out with a concussion (he had to go to the hospital but should be able to fly home with the team) Na'Shan Goddard came in. He has been with the team two weeks, and Holmgren felt like the refs were singling him out and picking on him. "I need to get the question answered if you can get fined by the league after you retire," Holmgren joked.

Neil Rackers put the Cardinals up by 34-21 with a little more than three minutes to play with another FG.

I am heading to the field, but it appears as if the Seahawks are going to lose Mike Holmgren's final game, dropping their record to 4-12 this season, the worst since 1992.

Kyle Williams was just carted off the field, by the way, his head in his hands. He looks distraught, understandably.

I'll be back up with postgame stuff in a bit, but needless to say this wasn't the way Holmgren wanted to go out, with penalties and turnovers costing his team dearly. Arizona inproved to 6-0 against the NFC West this year.

Two big plays -- the 29-yard gain by Steve Breaston and a 35-yard run by Edgerrin James -- set up a 23-yard field goal by Neil Rackers, giving Arizona a 31-21 lead.

James is now in 12th place on the all-time rushing list. Is he a Hall of Famer? Everybody ahead of him is or will be in.

Ken Whisenhunt has pulled Kurt Warner and has gone with Matt Leinart, whose first pass was for 29 yards to Steve Breaston, who beat Josh Wilson.

The Seahawks are hanging around, thanks to a three-yard TD pass from Seneca Wallace to Deion Branch that makes the score 28-21.

Wallace's QB draw failed on third down, and the Seahawks were forced to go for it on fourth. It looked like the fourth-down play was about to break down, but Wallace scrambled out of the pocket and Branch was alone in the back of the end zone.

The Cardinals just scored another touchdown, taking a 28-14 lead with a minute left in the third quarter.

On the touchdown, Kurt Warner hit Steve Breaston on a crossing pattern. Breaston then outmuscled Kelly Jennings on the tackle, shedding him and waltzing into the end zone untouched. It was Warner's fourth TD pass of the day.

All you can say about Larry Fitzgerald is, Wow. Marcus Trufant had great coverage on the Cardinals' wide receiver, and he still found a way to haul in a 38-yard pass for a TD, shielding Trufant perfectly and timing the catch just so. It gave Arizona a 21-14 lead.

Kurt Warner just set a franchise record with 29 TD passes this season, surpassing Neil Lomax and Charlie Jones.
