The Seattle D at the end of that game

I keep trying to tell people in clutch situations that defense is not that good. The only one they seem to do good against is the 49ers.

 

Denver this year, Packers this year, the Falcons two years ago, the Rams two years ago. In the 4th Quarter in a tight game, that defense is liable to give up points and lose the game.

 

That is why the Seahawks best chance was the ball in the hands of Wilson and the offense.

 

Even if the Seahawks did score, I am not sure that the game wouldn't have gone right into overtime.

 

See Denver, Packers, and Atlanta for proof.

They have allowed the fewest points 3 straight years and were a play away from back to back championships.

Not clutch? ?

What does that have to do with Clutch situations as was the premise of my post?

 

The Seahawks had a chance in two years ago to beat ATL in ATL in the playoffs. The defense needed to hold for about 20 seconds they could not.

 

This year against Denver, they could not hold Manning with like a minute left.

 

They could not hold Rodgers last week with about a minute...

 

And they very well would have given up 3 points to Brady had the Seahawks scored and left any time.

 

Much like the Panther's defense, the Seahawks, IN CLUTCH situations, often fails.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
