Tate's celebration

[Shadowhawk]

I'd like to know if that Rams db was trash talking tate all night. Doesn't make it right for him to taunt, but explains it a bit.

He probably was. That just means that he was smart enough not to get caught, unlike Tate.

But seriously, penalties are never a good thing. Back up your talk with your play.

If he would have fumbled into the endzone and lost the ball, I bet Pete would have cut him after the season. He still doesn't deserve a good contract. He is a good player, but I don't see elite WR in Tate. BTW, I actually love the smack talk he does, but I just don't see a great WR in Tate.

I think Rice and Tate probably need to go next year due to $$ reasons, depending on how much Tate wants in salary. If it is anything approaching WR1 or WR2 money, the Hawks need to send him on his way.

I love it when they spin the ball..

 

[Cyrus12]

Very true..maybe some pent up frustration on his part with the way the game was going..but didn't need to do it. If he would have gone out of bounds it likely would of been remebered as one of the stupidest moves in nfl history...good thing it didn't happen!!

 

[HunnyBadger]

Say what you will, but Tate has been a playmaker. Yeah, it was a stupid move, but when your offense is stifled and frustrated the whole game and you finally get a big chunk play, I can imagine the emotions surging out of him in the moment.

He seems genuinely regretful in the post-game interview.

I'm glad GT is on our team.

Nothing classless about that. Goodell has just planted the seed in all of our heads and turned us all soft

How about stupid, then, for drawing a completely unnecessary 15-yd penalty and nearly stepping out of bounds and blowing a sure touchdown? Blame Goodell if you want but that was completely classless and it could have come back to hurt us had St. Louis taken the short kickoff and run it back for a touchdown.

It was stupid.

It was also funny.

Had it hurt us I would have been ticked. Luckily it was fine. Pete made it clear that it wont happen again.

Pete needs to respond to this stupidity, and not just give it lip service. Tate needs to be sat, perhaps for the first half of the Bucs game, fined, or both. That selfish act could have cost us the game.

I am glad that Sherman called him out in the post game presser, though. Play smart, not like some mindless thug.

 

[JSeahawks]

I liked it. Brought a rare bit of joy to this game.

 

[BillHawks]

I'm sure he'll get a thank you card from Steve Smith after last week.

Golden Tate: Legend

Absoultely loved it, and was literally one of the few bright spots this whole game. Got me totally fired up and back into it.

 

[AbsolutNET]

Just pretend it was your son out there acting like that, how would you feel? I'd be pretty pissed.

Make a great play and act like an adult. Celebrate with your team instead of hurting them.

Yeah. If someone's giving you trash talk, just quietly point to the scoreboard at the end of the game. Game. Set. Match.

 

[The Outfield]

I thought it was funny. However, I would rather it not be done so that we don't get penalized.

Thank you. Pure stupidity. Few things scream "me before team" more than taunting.

If that was Tavon Austin taunting us I doubt so many folks on here would be supportive.

 

[ensett]

Tate was the best part of the game, im not saddam hussein, he can do that. Tate earned the right to do that. He embarrassed the entire rams defense on that play lmao

 

[BGHawk]

I bet he does it again..Pete doesnt want him to spin the ball, but he still does.

 

[Blitzer88]

I didn't really like it, but oh well, as least he got in the endzone.

 

[THUGCAPS]

Cry me a river. The guy responsible for the only two touchdowns of the game can't celebrate? The game is over, the Seahawks won, he admitted it was an immature play, get over it. The best part about it was the rams getting penalized for holding on the return.
