Yeah, yeah. Whatevsky, Palevsky.

The important thing on all our minds is what you'll be eating during the game. Tacos? Ribs? Pizza?
Unfortunately just beer.. as the food at the stadium is damn awful

This is literally a fake news story. Russ didn't audible, Lynch already confirmed that. But it doesn't change the fact we would have won that sb with almost any other qb in nfl
God people on this site need to lay off the crack!!! Literally what other qbs? Dumbest shit ever. Like we werent down in that game where russ took over and started pushing scores in the second quarter before the half. Literally no other qb could gotten em in the position in the first place. Even lynch just said russ has done things no one else has. This ******* site man. Overpopulated with biased russ haters. Doesnt even play for the hawks anymore. Makes up 80 percent of threads created still. This forum has become a bunch of bitter ex girlfriends.

Don't bother, it's not worth it, and hasn't been for years. Bitter ex girlfriends describes it perfectly. People are obsessed with this guy, it's pure gold.
He's gone, and it was for the best on both sides.

Besides the end, Russ played great. Also weren't you the one that posted the thread about missing Russ so much? Lol.

Wrong! Russell was good but he was a game manager those years! With Matt Flynn or Mark Sanchez we would have also managed the game and kept the lob together! At least 2 sbs with Flynn because we run on the 1!

IF this was a true story, Lynch would have admitted it. He doesn't pull punches and does not BS.

You honestly think that a QB could call an audible at the LOS in the SB, blow the play, lose the game for all the other players and none of the players (even the ones that left the team) would say anything about it?

Unlikely.

Especially because you know other players would have heard the audible, and it would have gotten out into the lockerroom to all the other players that didn't hear it personally.
It would be impossible to keep under wraps. It would have come out and not just after the Seahawk PR machine with trying to make it look like they made the right choice betting on Pete instead of Wilson.
There is one very remote possibility that Lynch and other players couldn't know? When the play came in from Bevell, Russ was the only one on the field that knew what Bevell called, if Russ changed it to a different play in the hurdle. Other players would assume whatever Russ said was the play from Bevell.

I don't think the above happened, if it did, Lynch and others wouldn't know, Bevell and Pete immediately circled the wagon. This is one thing only known to Pete, Bevell and Russ. We have to accept whatever they said as the truth. I have accepted the official version.

There's a chicken and waffles spot that's pretty solid. And the Din Tai Fung is really good, if it's still there.

Yes, I interpreted Lynch's comment as RW should have audibled from the original play that was called where Butler intercepted.

iirc, Bevel did say that he made the call and explained his "adaptation" to the goal line defense (still a bad call) and then Pete (as usual) said "It's my fault, it's on me."
Wilson also took the blame as well

IMO - no "coaching" explanation will ever convince me that every play called from the 1 yard line should not have been give the ball to Lynch. If they stop him every time from the 1 then the Pats would deserve the win.

That being said - Wilson should have audibled. "Oh he wasn't allowed to. He might get in trouble and be on the outs with the coaching staff." And I'm sure that no QB in the history of the game has ever defied the coach and audibled out of a play. Lynch scores. They win the SB. Hurt coach feelings/pride goes bye-bye.
Perhaps but if Lynch doe snot score and they lose then you are on Wilson for audibling. You basically giving a pass to the HC and OC who called the play because you want to lay blame on the QB

Nope. I give no pass to the HC and OC. In that context - with that personnel - that play call was terrible. I agree with those that say it may have been one of the worst in the history of the game.

BUT - Wilson had the chance to overcome that stupidity and didn't. As far as failing - I would be willing to bet quite a bit that there's no way the Pats keep Lynch out of the end zone with multiple attempts from the 1 yard line.

And for the record - I would not blame Wilson if he audibled into a run to Lynch on every single one of the final downs and they failed to score. I actually would be at peace with that.

Or call a play that Russ run the ball in by himself.

That would have been a better option too.

But MAN - they Marshawn "Freaking Beastmode" Lynch - trying to punch it in from the 1. I don't care that every single player, coach, and fan knows they are handing off to him. I will never believe they could have kept it from scoring.

So you wanted a 3rd year QB to ignore his HC and OC an audible to a different play? RIIIIGHT

Or, y'know, play action to him since everyone knows he's getting it. Whoever said above that it may have been the worst call of all time... there's no "may be" about it. Hands down worst playcall in the history of the SB. One damn playcall that ended up destroying a would be dynasty.
