Oh, c'mon Mac, everybody knows that every 3 and out ever experienced was 2 short runs and a 3rd down desperation pass.McGruff":3njcljvc said:The two possessions before our final scoring drive.
We went 3 and out both times while throwing 6 of 7 snaps.

Go Hawks
No no no. It's been made abundantly clear that this was a Schotty loss.SoulfishHawk":39lke56f said:And our D wasn't exactly on point. Team loss.
SoulfishHawk":1cr6ylrk said:Nah, they were moving the ball well in the later part of the game when they actually started throwing it. Agree to disagree. Way too conservative in the 1st half of the game. They need to adjust better.

Not sure why this is an argument, PC himself already said case closed.
Yep because Pete Carroll is known for saying what he really feels.John63":sjwxcfvq said:SoulfishHawk":sjwxcfvq said:Nah, they were moving the ball well in the later part of the game when they actually started throwing it.

So lets look ath those 3 drives
Drive 1
1st play run for negative yards so 2nd and long
2nd play pass for 5
3rd 3rd and long no go
So this started with a negative run that pretty much blew it up
Drive 2
1st play pass completed would have been 2nd and 4 but penalty now 1st and long
next play complete pass but another penalty
next play 2nd and 22 pass for 2 yards
next play pass for 13
punt
So on the 2 drives you are referencing we were forced to pass as opposed to dictating if we pass and both were blown up by either negative run or penalties. While, the end results you claim is correct the circumstances around them mitigate everything.
Now series 3 were we scored
6 straight passes, hmm
Lets look at the firsst series of the 3rd qtr
run, run, pass punt
2nd series
pass, run, run, run for huge loss, 2nd and long done
3rd series
run for 3, run for nothing, run for 2, pass for 22, run for 3, run for 2, pass for 7, run for 1, WIlson run for TD
So lets see in 6 non QB runs we got 11 yards for a whopping 1.8 ypc wow. Now let's add in Wilson 15 yards on 7 carries 2.1 ypc yeah running was working NOT
Drive 2 we came out passing and it put us behind the sticks as well. We needed to get another yard or two on a couple first down runs to setup 3rd and 5 instead of 3rd and 7. I always felt like we just needed to hit a 3rd down to get some kind of continuity going and things were going to get on track, and they just never did. We'd shoot ourselves in the foot or give up pressure or something. Neither Carson nor Wilson ever got into any rhythm. We needed an extra block here or there, find a way to make a completion and get it rolling, and just never did. But I don't know how you can logically feel that opening up the offense would've been the magic elixir, when it's usually a cause of disaster for us.John63":5bi0c9r5 said:McGruff":5bi0c9r5 said:2nd half possessions.
