So, after another stroke inducing game we are 8-1. I know we would all prefer blow outs every week so we could watch the game and enjoy a full game of butt stomping but winning in the NFL is hard! Think about how the Saints fans feel right now after LOSING to a team that no one thought they would drop a game too.
I also don't think the game was as bad as the score at half time made it appear. We took our opening drive all the way down to the red zone before Wilson made a bad throw. Even robots make bad decisions once in a while. The 2nd quarter was a killer but even that wouldn't have been that bad if it wasn't for a horrendous Def PI penalty against Earl Thomas when he intercepted the ball. That was inexcusable and I pray that Carey and his crew gets downgraded for making such a momentum killing phantom penalty call.
Our rush defense definitely got gashed during their first two TD drives but they did recover in the 2nd half and held TB to only a FG. Kearse's fumble on the kickoff return could have been the nail in the coffin though but you can't blame the defense for giving up a TD when a fumble gives the other team the football in the red zone.
The one play that absolutely killed me and I was screaming, "DON'T DO ANYTHING FANCY HERE BEVELL!!" was the first and goal from the 3 yard line. Why the hell did they not feed the ball to Lynch. I love Wilson, I trust in Wilson, but on a day where Lynch is averaging 5+ yards per attempt why don't you feed it to Lynch on at least 1st and 2nd there?!?!?! That was probably the single biggest stupid play I thought Bevell called.
8-1, that's all that matters right now and we are about to get some starters back so that makes this win even better!
Go Hawks!!
