Playing on Sunday at 1

Besides the Seahawks playing at 10 AM from their perspective, how else does it play in our favor? I think Ron has mentioned during the regular season he's more comfortable preparing his team for a 1:00 Sunday game than any other time. Maybe because it's normal routine, idk. In 2013 we played the Niners in the same time slot in the divisionals, but let's be honest it was our first playoff game since 2009, and we were playing the defending NFC champs. In hindsight it was a tall order. We might still have the defending NFC champs on our plate this week, but the team should be more acclimated to the playoffs as this is the third year in a row they've made it. How comfortable are you that this is a Sunday 1 PM as opposed to a Saturday prime time?

If i recall, the Niners were an anomaly with the early kickoff for a west coast team.

I guess it's perspective and mindset.  Seattle feels like they have house money and all the pressure is on Carolina. If that helps you ok sure.

I would have liked a Sat kick for a shorter odd day week for Seattle. It's so late in the year that the edge may lie in healthy players and ball control and protection more than anything else.

crap, it really is rain and snow on sunday. 

out of all days, why this sunday? 

Cam hates this weather ... look for a heavy dose of stewart/tolbert/CAP ...

There is very little chance of any significant precipitation on Sunday afternoon.  I doubt our gameplan will change one bit.

    • Just to clarify: I'm not arguing that height or footwork can’t affect QB play. I'm asking how those concerns translate into measurable, consistent outcomes. That’s the standard we should be applying to all QBs, not just Bryce. If height is such a limitation, then we'd expect to see elevated batted passes or poor pressure evasion. Yet none of that shows up in the data. Bryce was one of the lowest in the league for batted passes and his 16.9 pressure-to-sack ratio is good enough for 9th out of all QBs with 300+ dropbacks. So if you believe footwork tied to height is a meaningful issue, what metric shows that because two that would aren't doing so? This isn't about denying flaws. It's about applying fair, consistent standards because otherwise we’re not evaluating performance which means that it's not analysis taking place... it's just going off of the vibes that somebody has consciously decided on. Citing one red zone play you remember doesn't provide that consistent standard. I don't say that to dismiss your memory, but to emphasize that anecdotal evidence (especially from an avowed skeptic) shouldn’t carry more weight than consistent tape or analytics. For example, there was recently dissonance over Bryce's deep ball accuracy where it was implied that he was inaccurate throwing 20+ yards. Yet, the data and film show otherwise. And I unfortunately have to still ask since you won't directly answer: What specific metrics do you believe matter when evaluating whether a QB is top-10? You've mentioned YPA and passing yards per game, and that's fair. If that's what you're prioritizing, then let's call that your criteria but clarity matters because it prevents moving goalposts when the data doesn’t match one's expectations. I appreciate the response and hope that your holiday weekend goes well also. ❤️
    • Me too. I got other things I can do. Tie it up 2-2 and I will be back, but Im tired of watching us get swept.
    • Svechnikov and I'm voting cause I'm pissed.
