Division Round Game Thread - Saturday's Game No One in NE Cares About

[eddiew112]

Do we have a game potentially?

 

[mauf]

Seahawks have been too conservative. +2 on turnovers, and generally dominant, but one good drive and suddenly it's 7-7.

 

[rodderick]

Fantastic drive, but how the fuck do you have Simon on Benjamin in that situation? I mean, I understand the Seahawks system doesn't call for playing matchups with their corners, but you can't be that rigid.

 

[RIrooter09]

Fantastic drive, but how the fuck do you have Simon on Benjamin in that situation?

 
Sherman only plays one side of the field.

One of those turnovers wasn't really a turnover, though. It was a 44 yard net punt.

 

[DanoooME]

WHAT A FUCKING CATCH!

 

[wibi]

That hsould have been a PI on Kearse

 

[axx]

That was friggin beautiful

 

[Ed Hillel]

So is Kearse one of those playoff guys?

 

[Devizier]

Holy shit!!!!

 

[rodderick]

Russell Wilson might have the best touch on his passes of any QB in the NFL right now. Beautiful.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Yeah, that was OPI, but still a nice catch.

 

[Devizier]

That hsould have been a PI on Kearse

kearse was held.

 

[DanoooME]

That hsould have been a PI on Kearse

 
Actually the first penalty was on the DB for holding while Kearse crossed the formation.

 

[staz]

Well that was an impressive catch.

I'm sorry, after the early game, Kearse could have caught that withnhis dick and it would seem anticlimactic.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Kearse had 38 catches this year for 500 yards.

 

[johnmd20]

Olsen, make it happen.

 

[DanoooME]

Good thing Newton has a scatter arm, he's had some guys open.

 

[Ed Hillel]

This isn't the same Seattle D as last year.
 
Not that they aren't still really good.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Did Maxwell have a panic attack?

 

[Devizier]

Seahawks committing stupid ass penalties as usual.

 

[wibi]

fuck. Had the ball loose

Edit. Woot

 

[shawnrbu]

Riverboat Ron.

 

[DJnVa]

The league replay official, that generally in NY, was in Foxboro for that game and is there now for this game.

 

[Soxy]

I like going for it but don't really like the formation Carolina had there. Shotgun spread? Eh. It's 4th and one.

 

[DanoooME]

Boy that's close

 

[wibi]

I like going for it but don't really like the formation Carolina had there. Shotgun spread? Eh. It's 4th and one.

Gotta keep Seattle from packing the box

 

[axx]

Shotgun run on 4th and 1? I thought that was why Seattle called the timeout because they are afraid of it too.

 

[DanoooME]

Reid-esque Ron

 

[Section15Box113]

Terrible clock management.

 

[Section15Box113]

Reid-esque Ron

 
Ha.  Or this!

 

[Soxy]

Gotta keep Seattle from packing the box

They're going to do that anyway, which they did (8 in the box). Fourth and one isn't really about trickeration, it's about execution.

 

[wibi]

Hahahahahahaha

 

[DanoooME]

PICK!

 

[Freddy Linn]

Earl Thomas is a fantastic football player.

 

[DanoooME]

And OPI on Benjamin

 

[riboflav]

Incomplete

 

[Ed Hillel]

He dropped it.

 

[mauf]

Might be a gift for Carolina on replay.

Obviously down by contact.

 

[DanoooME]

Intercepting team #76 is Russell Okung, who plays offense

 

[Soxy]

If there is any consistentcy, given the call in the Pats game, that's incomplete.

 

[axx]

Yeah I think it's incomplete.

 

[Average Reds]

No way that stands

 

[Ed Hillel]

Yeah, definitely incomplete, but no idea how they'll actually rule it.

 

[shawnrbu]

That should be incomplete.

 

[wibi]

If there is any consistentcy, given the call in the Pats game, that's incomplete.

What was the call on the field in that game?

 

[Average Reds]

Might be a gift for Carolina on replay.

Obviously down by contact.

Nope. Has to maintain control to the ground.

 

[H78]

If they want to get it right they'll call it incomplete. If they want to play to the crowd they'll say there's nothing conclusive.
 
It's the playoffs, I hope they go with the former.

 

[mauf]

If there is any consistentcy, given the call in the Pats game, that's incomplete.

I think this one's a closer call. Thomas probably doesn't have any better control than Amendola did, but the ball doesn't visibly move when it impacts the ground. Won't be surprised by a reversal, but I also won't be surprised if the ref sees the replay and decides it's inconclusive.

 

[Soxy]

What was the call on the field in that game?

Complete pass. Then overruled to incomplete. And it was a lot more gray than that replay.
