Ok, so, like most you I watched yesterday's game and was frustrated as all heck. My son, however, was a different story. This is the first year he's taken a real interest in football and my son couldn't have been more tickled to see his favorite team get a victory (and it wasn't just because he got to stay up late to watch the game).
So, in honor of my son reminding me that football is supposed to be fun, here are some positive thoughts from the game.
So, hey guys! There'll be plenty of chances to be as cynical and negative as you want, but this thread is here for those of you who want to enjoy the fact that the Seahawks just ensured themselves a winning season in Mike Macdonald's first year!
Happy holidays!
So, in honor of my son reminding me that football is supposed to be fun, here are some positive thoughts from the game.
- As my son said last night, a win is a win. Everyone here was plenty happy to freak out about the Seahawks actually holding their own against one of the five best teams in the league last week, so I'm officially giving you permission to be happy that the Seahawks won a crappy game instead of lost a good one.
- Can we give our boys some props for respecting NFL traditions? A bunch of teams this year have been having good games on Thursday Night Football. Thankfully, the Seahawks didn't engage in any of that tomfoolery and had a good ol' fashioned debacle on Thursday Night, just as the Gods of Football demand!
- Hey, it looks like Ryan Grubb found that 'Running Plays' section of his Playbook that had been missing! It's a Christmas miracle!
- You guys think you have it bad watching a 6-3 victory? Imagine being a Chicago Bears fan that had to watch that 6-3 loss! With their #1 pick QB!
- Hey, we can all stress about that sad offensive performance, but can we have a little positivity for a defense that allowed less points than had sacks?
- Speaking of that offense, 6 points was still 6 more than the Houston Texans got on Wednesday. So, hey two field goals was still only the third worst offensive performance of Week 17 and we've only had 3 games so far!
- By the way, did you know the Seahawks haven't won a game without scoring a TD in like 2 decades? If you actually sat through that whole thing, you were witnessing Seahawks history as it unfolded! Lucky you!
So, hey guys! There'll be plenty of chances to be as cynical and negative as you want, but this thread is here for those of you who want to enjoy the fact that the Seahawks just ensured themselves a winning season in Mike Macdonald's first year!
Happy holidays!
