I was literally JUST about to post the same thread title.

Seahawks and Mariners are going to be giving me cardio vascular problems today

Heard that Seattle is one of two teams to not force a fumble all year.

It is time

This would be an infuriating loss, imo.

I pray we end up with the ball but with either the game tied or us with the lead.

It is almost never a good sign when you score your first points in a game with 6 seconds remaining in the first half. We were fortunate to actually have a chance to win at the end, but our offense ended up giving the ball away with too much time still on the clock. Just the right amount of time if you are a Bucs fan.

It's also never a good sign when you interrupt a drive by your QB, by bringing in Jalen Milroe to do a gadget play that NEVER works and results in a fumble which is kind of the reason you end up scoring your first points in a game with 6 seconds remaining in the first half.

I hope the Jalen Milroe experiment has seen its last use.

That was just ridiculous.

Bucs D was all over that play before it even really got underway. The special Milroe plays have an automatic spotlight attached, especially because they are so infrequent. And as I saw it that was not a fumble. It was an errant lateral pitch attempt that was bungled due to defenders already hanging all over him. He should have just hung on to the ball once contact was made and take the loss.

Could have sworn someone injected Valium into my veins today. Then I realized, there are no Seahawks or Mariners games today!
Speaking of which, thank god the Mariners won last night.

Silver Linings!

Meyers and the stupid Milroe play, lost us the game. At worst we should have not missed the FG, and stuck with Darnold and got another 3 instead of the fumble. Oh well, hope they shelve any future Milroe trick stuff. Well and having 3 guys out in the secondary.

Who knows? If we stuck with Darnold, that also could've been 7 instead of 3 as well.

I mean Meyer is, to me, a mixed bag at this point.

Whether he converts a fg or not is 50/50 so it's out of the Hawks control.

What IS in control is the lame-brained decision to use Milroe.

THAT was play that prevented a possible scoring drive that ultimately was the difference in the end as far as the final score goes.
