Seahawk way!

Seriously if the Pats can get away with all sorts of horse shoe up ass or ref aided victories for last two decades why cant another franchise?

Disappointing result but at least they made it a game and had a chance.

The offense made some mistakes but still did its part and did so without Thielen and then Cook and Reiff for almost the entire second half. The defense is having issues though and it mostly comes back to the corners. If they keep the safeties deep in support, they get run on. If they bring them (or one) up, they're very susceptible to getting beat deep. Rhodes in particular has gone from shutdown corner to complete liability.

you have to punt that ball. That was incredibly stupid
Are you kidding me? They were past their own 40 with a 4th and 3 with 2:27 to go. If they made the PAT then punting would make sense as even without timeouts you can get into FG range for 55 yard attempt by getting 25-30 yards even with less than a minute left.

Andy Reid Punted with over 4 minutes to go in the KC/GB game earlier in the year. KC never got the ball back and kc had like 4th and 4 near mid field.

You take the shot to keep the game going. Maybe you could say that they should have called a timeout before the play. But going for it was the right decision IMO.

Regardless, whether they punted or went for it their D didn’t get a stop on D. Would still get the ball back with around 20 seconds to go in the game. Plus the final 2 runs the Hawks were careful with the ball.

Another win in a close game.

Running game was the difference as usual again. When the Hawks get rolling pounding the rock and working the play action deep ball they are tough to stop.

1st in the NFC West baby. Can’t wait for the 49ers game.

this is pretty much what they’ve been doing in the Pete Carroll era.

Along with slow starts and low scoring games in the first half.

Been a second half team for Carroll’s entire tenure it seems like.
