‘"It was awesome to run up the tunnel, looking up at the fans," said defensive end Chris Kelsay. "Ruben Brown was in the tunnel. I played with Ruben the first time that we beat them my rookie year [in 2003] and the last time we beat them until today. … I went up to Chan and Buddy [Nix] after the game and said, ‘I’m not one to ask for much, but your 24-hour rule [on celebrating wins]? I might ask for a couple more hours to enjoy this one — 26, 28 hours — because it’s been a long time.’"’
