    Turning Point of the Game

    You have to wonder how emotionally strong this team is when a couple of plays (KPL hold and the safety) virtually puts this game away.

    Superstition

    What will be your collaboration for a win against Atlanta? Or a win at Super Bowl LI? What I mean with this question is: what winning ritual will you follow, or lucky jersey will you wear, or what coincidence happened that will help us win? The following happened about a week ago and changed my...

    Lets talk Atlanta...

    And Atlanta receivers won't dronp 4-5 balls on 3rd down and kill drives like the Lions did today. Especially if our pass rush gives Ryan as much time in the pocket as we gave Stafford today.

    Lets talk Atlanta...

    I think our team depends on Russell Wilson now more than ever. It's clear Atlanta will score against us. If Wilson is close to his pre 2016 former self (accurate, mobile, and a real running threat) then I think we have a chance. If not, I think we lose in a blowout.

    Most complete game this season

    Despite the decent QB rating, I think Russell Wilson is still far from his normal self. He's not mobile and his accuracy is off. Of course, I was spoiled by his stellar performance up to this year.

    Allow yourselves a moment of pride

    I feel like your post signals at the end of this era and it sure feels like that, at least to me. I think the team lost some of the edge, which is inevitable due to the salary cap. We have so much money commited to few players that our OL looks like a bunch of high school players. We all (PC...

    Richard Sherman threatens to 'ruin' rep of reporter

    I don't care that much either. Sherman is a Seahawk and as long as he doesn't cross a line (felony, I guess?) I will support him.

    Own it Seahawks!

    Momentum played a big factor in this game. Wilson overthrew open receivers (Baldwin and Graham) in what could have been two easy TDs in the 1st quarter. At the end of 2nd quarter, Doug Baldwin was open in the end zone, and Wilson underthrew the ball, leading to the INT. We score any of those...

    The Rest of the NFC West Lost Too!

    You're absolutely right. It's not just the loss today. It's the fact that our offense did very little in four of our eleven games this season.

    Humiliating loss.

    I don't like this idea that TB was playing their Super Bowl against us. It sounds condescending. I just think that we're not that good this year. If the opposing team has a decent plan, our OL is too bad to allow for any play to develop. The Bucs didn't even have to play a perfect game to...

    It's time to sit Jermaine Kearse

    I still remember the moment when he dropped that pass. It was a 3rd and whatever and I felt then that if that ball had been caught the game would have been over. Looking at that picture though, can the CB hold the WR arm like that? Isn't that PI?

    2 Point Try

    I did some basic calculations using the following numbers: Odds of Patriots scoring a TD in a given drive = 30% (this season's numbers) Odds of a successful PAT = 95% (this season's average) Odds of a succesful 2 point conversion = 50% (historical average) Odds of a win in OT = 50% (just a...

    2 Point Try

    You have to go with the statistically and mathematically correct play. That's why you double down with 11 on blackjack. On that first opportunity, the TD had given us a 5 point lead, so it's logical to go for 2 and make it a 7 point lead. In the second opportunity, the TD had given us a 7 point...

    2 Point Try

    The point is I'm not against a 2 point try, depending on the situation. When a TD puts you up 5 points, then yes, go ahead and go for 2 to make it a 7 point lead. When scoring a PAT forces the other team to score what's basically 2 TD to tie a game, then no, do not go for the 2 point try.

    2 Point Try

    That call alone was horrible. Combine it with not going for the 2 point conversion when we scored the first TD (we missed the extra point, by the way) and it makes it horrendous.

    No timeout?

    Do the Seahawks need a clock management coach? Pay me 200k a year and I'll solve all their problems in that area, only using common sense and the algebra I learned back in 3rd grade.

    No timeout?

    I was wondering the exact same thing. Before the FG attempt, there was still plenty of time on the clock to: 1) run one more running play 2) If it's a TD, we win. 3) If it's not a TD, we let the clock run to 1 second and call time out 4) kick FG The way it was executed, after we missed the FG...

    A Tie Is Like...

    This tie is like one flag for the offense and one for the defense. Our defense deserved to win. Our offense deserved to lose. They offset each other.

    Make PI Reviewable

    I already hate it when players gesticulate after a play, asking for a flag. Now they're asking for flags (or no flags) to be reviewable? No no no no no!!!! This is football, not soccer! Coming from country where soccer is very popular, I've grown to dislike watching it due to all the...

    I'll say it. We got a little lucky

    Well, that's one point of view. We may have gotten lucky in the last play, but there were several plays where we lacked luck. What about the easy catch that Graham dropped on 3rd down in the first half? Atlanta took it back for a FG. What about that easy throw that Wilson threw out of reach to...
