Looks like it's gonna be Seahawks vs. 49ers for the #1 seed, w/the Bears having an outside shot.

We got pretty lucky being the sandwich game between the Seahawks games against the Rams and 49ers. Sucks that we are playing back-to-back teams that get extra rest from playing on Thursday, but I think the Seahawks will be looking ahead to San Fran when they play us. I doubt we win, but a 1:00 pm game on the east coast for a west coast team that will be looking ahead to week 18 sets up pretty well for us

Crazy fluky win for the Seahawks last night from the two point conversion fumble recovery after review to the punt return TD to the Rams just inexplicably using no clock on multiple drives up two scores late.

I thought a backward pass fumble had to be a clearly backwards pass. The ref analyst said that a lateral would still be considered a backwards pass. I've never heard that and that makes no sense. Backwards should mean BACKWARDS. If backwards means backwards then I honestly think that was too close to call to overturn either way it was ruled on the field.

You know they have more angles than we saw right?  The down facing sky cam was probably pretty definitive, backwards is any pass thrown to someone behind the line of scrimmage without the QB being completely parallel to the the LOS

Then show it. Don't create controversy where there needn't be controversy. Given how long that review took I don't think they had a view that was super cut and dry.

Couple more things from last night... 

This is an absolute mess

Silly to say "the Rams should have won in regulation" because of a failed two-point conversion with 6 and 1/2 minutes left to go in the game. The game would have played out completely differently if one team had a lead after this drive rather than them being tied.

Understood, but this is still a pretty bad look for the league.

They don't really want these kinds of conversations.

The first might have been a smart play by the defender. Let him go, illegal man downfield. If it was, great play by the D lineman. 

We were always taught to get to the ball even if the whistle blows. Never let a ball sit for just this reason. Weird poo happens. Better to have the ball in your hand when it does than not.

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
