Just turned it... holy lord.

There's got to be a feed somewhere on the internet where someone is using the green screen to superimpose hilarious things onto the Seahawks players, right? This must exist

If McDaniels were to go to LA, could the Pats realistically trade Jimmy G and picks to get Donald? How many and which picks?

The Rams are just awful.

Why the hell would they give up on their #1 overall draft pick after one year and give up the best defensive player in the game for late in the round picks and a QB with 2 1/2 games in his pocket.

Unless you were being sarcastic. To which I apologize. And I hope. I hope you were being sarcastic.

Help me out - I still don't understand when the clock stops. Why didn't it stop on Gurley's run out of bounds?

The Rams execution is so incredibly bad. It's hard not to blame Fisher for that inability, even if tonight's decisions are Fassel's
I watched a few minutes of the NFL network before the game and Mariucci was making excuses for Jeff Fisher's incompetence in general and his complete inability to prepare any kind of offense in particular. About the latter he said that it wasn't fair to be too harsh on Fisher because his teams had had three different offensive coordinators in his failed five years. How does the head coach avoid any responsibility for no continuity on offense? Were the coordinators all forced on him against his will and from completely different systems?

Just looked rule up - my bad. It's 2 mins in first half, 5 mins in second half.

"The clock is stopped when that player is tackled or goes out of bounds. However, in the NFL the clock runs when a player goes out of bounds unless it's the final two minutes of the first half or final five minutes of the second half."

Was it not under 2 minutes?
That made no sense to me either. It's not like he was being driven back when he went out of bounds.
The clock always stops on out of bounds, and it did there.

The question is whether it starts back up on ready to play. It did there, like it was supposed to (over 2:00 in the second quarter, over 5:00 in the fourth).

Edit: sorry, was typing while you were posting

I think the Seahawks have the best chance to use that lay down in the end zone and try to blend in on a kickoff play that the jets tried a few years ago. I think they might try it.

These unis represent one of the things I hate most about the NFL: everything is a cheap marketing ploy to generate "excitement" where there isn't, never has been and never will be any.

If Graham is OB and touching the ball, it's out, right? Looked like he was there.

I can't fucking take it anymore. You get one play every five fucking minutes. It's excruciating. I don't care if he was in or out. Or if Graham was out. Make a fucking call and play the game.
