    I hope the FO is watching Russ in the probowl.

    Russ played in the 2013 Pro Bowl. 3 TD's in the 4th qtr, doing what he does :D http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-high ... highlights

    Now that the season is over, Fire Bevell Poll

    I do not believe Bevell is the entirety of the problem. While he has been known to be a bit lazy, I, too, believe he is handcuffed by the head coach's desire to play conservative on offense and win with defense.

    Pete Carroll Wants to Accelerate the Process for Wilson

    This confirms what many believed was the case all along. Namely that RW was 'held back' until Lynch (and Rawls) went down. My guess is that he had little input into game-planning and was only sporadically able, at the LOS, to change a called play. Got to figure he wasn't consulted about...

    The One Play That Sticks With Me

    Kuechly's Pick 6 happened because Russ expected Lynch to sit down, but Lynch kept dragging across. Pretty sure that played into RW's decision to go down with the ball the second time that option presented itself. Yes, RW needs to 'make those reads' - but it's a team game. When the QB -- in a...

    Final Thoughts

    You can't win 'em all. Would have been nice to get back to the NFCCG -- and a chance at the big game -- but the Panthers and Cardinals earned their bye weeks and shot at glory. Our guys had a lot of off-field stuff to deal with to start the season, which no doubt cost us some games -- and...

    Effort

    This team prides itself on tough, physical play. Our boys needed a bye week -- not consecutive cross-country trips to play in hostile environments. I know they're all (relatively) young, healthy athletes -- but last week's game, in that weather, was BRUTAL. No doubt it drained them and played...

    If you didn't already hate the Camolina Panthers read this.

    I thought it was great satire.

    Wilson Saids Newton Is MVP

    Cam is a showman, a self-promoter, a #1 draft pick that took time to mature into what was projected for him. RW was a later-round draft pick that most believed was a smart choice as a back-up. Despite 3 years of working hard and playing smart, disciplined football -- which provided many...

    Confidence poll

    I have confidence that the winners will have to fight their collective asses off.

    People who said game over

    I don't have a pair (lol), but I didn't give up until MN lined up for the FG. Never, in my wildest dreams, did I think MN would shank a 27-yd FG.

    Two best tweets I saw today

    That ESPN stat confirms why I was thinking the whole second half (until MN lined up for the FG), "Here they come... we're going to do this... we're a comeback team." But I'll admit.... I gave up hope and walked away as MN lined up for the final FG. Then I heard my spouse (a GB fan) shout from...

    Playing in the cold.

    Accurate description of playing in the cold (I know because I live in the land of the Frozen Tundra!) Extreme weather games typically go to the team with the highest degree of mental toughness and adaptability. From locker room reports after MN beat GB last weekend, it sounds like many MN...

    Mike Pettine: Russell Wilson not quite among top tier of QBs

    What defines elite? In my book, a QB's ability to bring his team back from the brink of loss by making great plays when it counts, ie, in the 4th qtr and on final drives -- in addition to engineering long drives that keep the ball out of the hands of the opposing defense at the end of games --...

    Mike Pettine: Russell Wilson not quite among top tier of QBs

    Paraphrasing the guys on NFL Network, "Um, two SBs in his first three years say otherwise, Pettine." They're ripping him up pretty good over his comments, lol. ETA: Didn't see the previous comment. Don't miss the linked segment!

    Our Path To The SB Is Clear To Me

    I had to laugh listening to Packers radio commentators today talking about not wanting GB to be the NFCN champs, if it meant having to host Seattle at Lambeau in the WC round. I can't blame them. While GB's game vs the Lions on TNF was a fun win, it didn't inspire a lot of confidence...

    What happened to Wilson?

    I completely agree. Once it became clear that this year's offense wasn't running through Beast Mode, ie. that the primary production would have to come from RW deciding whether HE liked the pass option or felt a handoff would be better, things changed. Yes, Rawls has been terrific. But there's...

    10 am complaining

    I wonder if the players and organization mind playing early and getting back home Sunday evening?

    Dinner last night

    Thanks for sharing. I truly believe that who a person is off the field plays a big part in how the person performs on the field. Maybe not in the short term, but certainly during the course of a long season, a long career - when some measure of adversity is sure to hit.

    Bevell's Last Play Call

    Letting Wilson decide where to go with the ball was the right call. If Wilson couldn't run for 2 yards, who in their right mind believes a rookie would have been able to? At least with RW, the offense had options, which it turned out they took advantage of. That's why good QBs get paid more...
