Curious how the field at the C-Link is tonight. Sounders had a game here last night

Bad turf probably helps the Hawks, right?

If anyone needs good footing for their skill position guys it's the Lions.

do people really call it the see-link? Not the clink? With jokes about being judged by twelves? Come on, man.

Audibly its known as "The clink" but spelling I've always seen it as "The C-Link" since its Century Link field

Pretty impressed with the pregame segment on Jimmy Graham. Used PFF (insert bag of salt) and a nice little video package on how awful Graham is as an inline blocker.

soxhop411 · Oct 5, 2015

Good start.

yecul · Oct 5, 2015

Rbs being met I'm the backfield almost every time.

Jettisoned · Oct 5, 2015

Could they have telegraphed the run any more on that first play? 1st down, I-formation, motion the slot receiver over to the line...

wibi · Oct 5, 2015

I dont know what Im more excited about ... That we havent seen a screen called yet or that they didnt three and out on the first series

DJnVa · Oct 5, 2015

Gruden: "Those plays by Wilson don't show up on the stat sheet."

Really? That's a shitty stat sheet then.

tims4wins · Oct 5, 2015

I see Wilson 2 carries 11 yards

It's my favorite thing to bet, now. Any Peyton, Stafford, Luck, Winston or Fitzpatrick game. I don't care the odds, I know I'll hit.

On the other side, take Rodgers not to throw a pick, especially at home.

Again with the 12th man crap.

You realize they do it every game right?

ifmanis5 · Oct 5, 2015

Great playcall.

ipol · Oct 5, 2015

Whole line went to the right for Detroit and the FB went left. Head scratcher.

ipol · Oct 5, 2015

Sometimes screens work.

Byrdbrain · Oct 5, 2015

Can you really call what Caldwell does coaching?

Edit:Absolutely no reason for a comma

I think he just keeps hitting Ask Madden.

JohnnyTheBone · Oct 5, 2015

Theo Riddick ain't no messin' around.

DJnVa · Oct 5, 2015

Gruden thinks that since Wilson does hard count he learned it from Aaron Rodgers.

Because he invented that.

Dogman · Oct 5, 2015

Solid play by Wilson there.

rodderick · Oct 5, 2015

Wilson has tremendous touch on his deep throws.

amarshal2 · Oct 5, 2015

How in the world did Jones not bring him down?

Had shades of a play that shall not be mentioned by a far less agile QB.

wibi · Oct 5, 2015

If Wilson can get any protection at all from his O-lIne ...

amarshal2 · Oct 5, 2015

I'm not sure there's another QB who gets half as many hard count, offsides, snap, throw it deep sequences as Rodgers.

Not having protection made that play.

Yeah Wilson has been awesome but he'll get killed if this keeps up.

I never bet that one. Streaks gotta end sometime, and I don't want to be out cash when it does.

54thMA · Oct 5, 2015

This is the Wilson I had nightmares about seeing in the Super Bowl last year; scrambling for first downs, getting away from sacks and heaving the ball downfield for touchdowns.

Thankfully outside of a play or two here or there, those nightmares didn't come true.

That's not an accident. The Patriots played contain and forced him to be a pocket passer. When the play doesn't break down he is not as dangerous.

ypioca · Oct 5, 2015

These GMC ads are the worst. "Our trucks are like a well-shaved man, or a fastball in the corner." What?

They have supplanted Denis "cock-a-doodle-doo, pal" Leary in the truck ad douchiness leaderboard.

shawnrbu · Oct 5, 2015

Does Chris Matthews only play in the Super Bowl?

shawnrbu · Oct 5, 2015

2nd and Goal at the 1, Seattle passes.

2nd and Goal at the 23, Seattle runs.

Byrdbrain · Oct 5, 2015

So Seahawks o-line blows huh

rodderick · Oct 5, 2015

Wilson giveth and he taketh away. Not that he's at fault for being under pressure immediately after the snap, but throw the ball away and kick a FG, can't take that sack.

amarshal2 · Oct 5, 2015

wibi said:

Ok yeah this is bad.

I don't think you can ever expect a plus o-line given your roster construction and the advantages Russ gives here but they should be semi competent.

shawnrbu · Oct 5, 2015

Whither Max Unger?

Van Everyman · Oct 5, 2015

This is where Stafford throws a pick.

I'll always call it Qwest.

Van Everyman · Oct 5, 2015

Is Fred Jackson dead?

bankshot1 · Oct 5, 2015

The day Russell Wilson loses a step will not be pretty.

k-factory · Oct 5, 2015

Gift from the hawks and Stafford blows it.

Ed Hillel · Oct 5, 2015

lol was that a hail mary? Who the fuck drew that play up?

Reverend · Oct 5, 2015

BigSoxFan said:
These offensive linemen on both teams are horrendous

I'm beginning to wonder if O-line play suffers disproportionately compared to other units from the new rules about contact in practices in pre-season.

It sorta makes intuitive sense, given the coordinated effort that the play requires. I'm not seeing any way to simulate game situations in a realistic fashion as compared to the way you can, for example, practice route running or something.

Ed Hillel · Oct 5, 2015

Grounding rules are a joke lol

Dahabenzapple2 · Oct 5, 2015

"Caldwell has been an outstanding offensive coach throughout his career"

REALLY?!?!?

Gruden runs his mouth just to run his mouth

Random thought: That Jimmy Graham trade looks awful.
