About coaching marshawn, you coached him since the very beginning. Hes a special kid. Youve got a lot of kids with talent here, given the right opportunity they shine.

So edwards says he just doesnt like talking to the media. He likes to prove everything on the football field. I also asked the coach to do that move, and he said hes too old for that. But he did give me his prediction. He said that he predicts that the score tomorrow will be 2414, the seahawks. Reporting live in oakland, cheryl hurd, nbc bay area news.
