Mike Macdonald upset with garbage time yards

[Mistashoesta]

A clip of Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald talking with an old fan/friend from Baltimore about his displeasure in Seattle's defense surrendering garbage time yards and a tuddy to the Commanders during their game last week.

"Hey Mike.. you ain't forget the saying though? It ain't the first 48 (mins) it's what??"....

"60 mins!"

Good. Never let up and dominate for 60 minutes.

 

[pmedic920]

I approve of this sentiment!

Would be pretty tough to be feeling more excited than I am right now.

See my sig.

They hired the right guy, clearly. His jump from season 1 to 2 has been impressive. And his road record is ridiculous.

Dude won't be happy until we are the number 1 defense in the NFL in all categories and average under 6 points per game.

 

[Followthelegion]

He feels the same way I felt in the 4th quarter. Wanted us to really stomp them

So refreshing to not play for OT.
Curb Stomp the opponent over and over until 00:00.

Ok, so

We only allowed 14 to our 38. OT was never going to be the outcome.

It’s not coaches’ job to be concerned with the point spread. The point is to win games while best conserving resources for future games. Both we and the Commanders gambled with exposing their qb to injury risk into the fourth quarter when there was nothing to prove anymore.

Coachspeak. Have to have something to motivate the team to prevent a let down this Sunday.

Honestly I was more disappointed in the first TD than the final score. Our defense is good enough to keep an opponent out of the end zone. I want a shutout in the worst way. Maybe we can do it this week and get Murray his job back.

So we are gonna try to help out Murray. I am good with that. LOL

Yeah, me, too. I haven't felt this good about a Seahawk team for about 8 years.

Respectfully:

GTFO with that attitude.


Besides coach never said anything about the point spread.

He said he wasn’t happy about giving up yards.
He prides himself and he’s proud of our team.
Personally, I’m proud of him.

Schneid's couldn't have done any better getting us coach MM. Except for that Grubb fiasco, he's done a hell of a job the last few years. So glad MM is our coach and Balt fans can fret over that for years to come.

43 to Garbage time EIGHT SB.
This is EXACTLY the kind of minute didliy Defense play that p*sses Mike-Mac off.
NO MERCY!!!

Isn't point differential one of the tiebreakers that can determine division champ?

Respectfully, you want Sam in the position Jaylen is now in? Because that’s the risk you take in leaving him in a game whose OUTCOME is clear. Them scoring a garbage time td doesn’t matter as much as us seeing how prepared Drew is to deliver one with starter weapons for purposes of 2026 evaluation as he’s under contract.

Oh for f sakes it sure didn’t take you long to start and stir the pot did it? It was quiet without you around here.. the. Of course you’re back and just working on your post count god forbid it be anything of quality.

Quit getting personal and address how precisely it benefits either team in a complete blowout from failing to pull starting qbs, particularly as the winner of the equation. Even in the Super Bowl, the Eagles pulled Hurts when he got his 40 points to the Chiefs 6 early in the fourth. Even with no other games thst year, coach pulled Hurts rather than risk his unavailability this year even if chiefs got 17 more garbage points by leaving Mahomes in there.

The Chiefs at least didn’t have a motive to further evaluate Wentz as he had performed badly enough in prior relief to not be asked back, whereas we haven’t seen Lock for two years.
