    Really strange moment - Griffin

    My guess is that he was worries about getting sealed inside by the receiver - always has to maintain outside leverage. Thought he could have been more aggressive and attacked for the tackle, but assuming he was playing it safe to make sure that pursuit would be able to make the play.

    Rams moving to Los Angeles - Implications for Hawks

    I'm a Southern Cal transplant. Thinking about buying season tickets - sell the other 7 games and get to go to the Seahawks game for free (ish). Not sure how easy this would be, but would think with all of the different allegiances in the LA area, should be enough demand to sell the tickets...

    NFL warns Lynch of 15-yard penalty for crotch grabbing

    All of the fine money is supposed to go to NFL charities. http://www.latimes.com/sports/nfl/la-sp ... story.html

    Belicheat confirmed...Deflate-gate

    If they deflated the balls for this game, there has to be suspicion that they have for other cold weather games. Maybe the week before - a 4 point win against Baltimore?

    NFCCG Matchups You Like and Dislike

    My understanding was that Maxwell played the slot when the match-ups worked for him - the slot receiver was bigger (ie vs the Giants). Burley matches up better with the quicker slot receivers. Lane seems to fair well against either. Edit: I would see Burley or Lane as a better match-up vs. Cobb.

    How often are only 10 men on the field?

    Usually happens on special teams or a quick transition. Especially if a ST player is dinged up. The communication to make sure that the backup is aware of the injury takes a little work. If it happens right before the play, or the injured player doesn't communicate what specials he's on, it can...

    Jon Ryan punt (@ sealevel) after the safety.

    Great punt - but I have to point out it's not much better (if at all) than the 66 yd punt earlier in the game. The free kick is measured from the 20 yd line while punts are measured from the line of scrimmage. As punts are usually punted about 9-10 yds behind the LOS, the 66 yarder might be...

    Overtime rule

    I like the OT rule currently in place. As a coach of a strong defensive team I might consider kicking off to start the OT period. You then would be able to possibly gain field position and only have to be concerned about getting into field goal range. I see the statistics are that 16% of...

    From the Broncos Board

    We actually won that, then deferred. You might be able to claim they scored first?

    Superbowl Sound FX

    Loved the whole thing!! One of my favorite parts is Sherman and Thomas talking on the bench. They are so in sync that they take a drink of water at the exact same time. It was oddly hilarious.

    End of season Offensive performance

    I have no doubt that we actually match up pretty well, and have played some good to great defenses. I just think that the addition of Kearse (and now Harvin) will add significantly to our production. Especially against a defense that is not of the same strength as the last 7 weeks.

    End of season Offensive performance

    I know the defenses have been very good - just thought that being down 3 of our starting caliber WR would definitely have some impact on our offensive production - especially in the Red Zone. Puts a major limit on formations and creating match up problems for the opposition - especially when...
