I'm glad the hawks won, but that was one garbage game.

 

[slightconfuse]

Illegal bat

Cheatin Pete strikes again

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

Refs fucking blew it again. Fucking Seattle home cooking. Sickening

 

[WesternHeretic]

Not our fault the refs are incompetent.

 

[Kiryu]

What part did refs blew the call?

 

[grandjedi6]

ESPN trying to create their own storyline for the week. And even chuckling about it.

 

[mr2xxx]

So the refs blew the call?

Yep, illegal play that should of been reviewed.

 

[Syrinx]

I feel bad for bad for Browns, Lions, Jags, Texans etc fans. But really, stop cheering for loser franchises. What does that prove?

If I had it in me to give up the Bucs I'd have done it years ago.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

lol seahawks cheating again and benefitting. i guess if you can't beat the patriots, join them!

 

[Line_HTX]

Seahawks lied, people died.

Best ending, though.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Game is still on? I turned it off after the first down completion.

 

[M.W.]

Seahawks always cheat their way to a win

I root for my home teams win (mostly lose) or draw. I could never be no bandwagon punk.

Dear Detroit,
I'm sorry. We understand.
Love, Cleveland.

Yep, illegal play that should of been reviewed.

But is that review able? I don't know what penalties can be looked at anymore.

 

[RELAYER]

Looks like a character from Mortal Kombat 2

 

[WesternHeretic]

What part did refs blew the call?

If he tried to recover but it "accidentally" rolls out then it's a touch back but if he intentionally not even try to recover and just push it out then it's a flag on us.

Obviously he didn't even try to recover it and just punch it out so it's intentional therefore would of been a flag on us.

It's a stupid rule but a rule nonetheless. Refs fucked up.

 

[Lan Dong Mik]

But is that review able? I don't know what penalties can be looked at anymore.

Absolutely. All turnover plays are reviewed. It was missed not only by the refs but Jim Caldwells dumb ass. He should have been out there on the field throwing a fucking fit

 

[eznark]

Why is ESPN assuming the Lions would've scored?

 

[ramoisdead]

Bring back the scabs!

 

[Line_HTX]

I'm dying.

 

[Kurt Angle]

inside 2 mins, everything

 

[M.W.]

But is that review able? I don't know what penalties can be looked at anymore.

It was a turnover, thus a review.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Bring back the scabs!

Scabs = Seahawks win
Real refs = Seahawks win.

You can't escape us.

 

[Josh5890]

Can't wait to see the refs or NFL make a statement.

 

[Eleuin]

don't worry the league will apologize tomorrow

also blown calls on MNF? I never

 

[Line_HTX]

First it was the Packers, now the Lions.

Seahawks cheating the NFCN.

=D

 

[Josh5890]

In Seattle against an NFL North team none the less. Life is funny sometimes

 

[Afrikan]

they'll run out of apologies from the first half of the 9er Packers game...

they'll sweep this under the rug.

Thanks for the explaination!

If K Wright really tried to recover the fumble ball... He would be first one to recover because golden tate probably was too far away to recover that ball?

Why would it be at yard 1 or 2 line for lions possession if fumbled?

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

in their defense, none of those penalties/missed penalties would have made a difference in our game. kap is trash and even if they marched the ball down to the 1 yard line for us he would've fucked it up somehow

 

[Line_HTX]

Damn, that chyron during Caldwell presser.

 

[BaltimoreLarry]

So, any winless teams left?

probably where CJ lost it.

Honestly if KJ tried to recover I think 9 out of 10 times he would of recover and we would have won anyways. But I think he wanted to play it safe and just knock it out, however that actually is against the rules LOL.

But in KJ's defense Steve Young, Trent Dilfer, SVP and Ray Lewis all did NOT know that rule existed either.

Season is still early FMT... we just got to beat the Giants and Ravens....and we'll be 3-3 heading into that Seahawks game.

we lost/blownout by

Big Ben and the Steelers
Arians and the Cards (Great Coach)
Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers


understandable.

 

[eznark]

So the narrative now will be the refs stole the game and not that Calvin Johnson fumbled away the remnants of the season.

Must be nice.

and thats fine if we were even mildly competitive in those games. in two out of those 3 games, the game was over before the end of the half. in yesterdays game our defense had the luxury of playing a team on a short week who had to fly across the country. if we played the packers in greenbay on a short week they would drop 50 on us without a doubt

i will happily eat crow if it happens, but i HIGHLY doubt kap is going to turn things around anytime soon. again i say, there is no Qb in the league playing worse than he is

 

[Herpes Reasons]

Should've been 1st and Goal for Lions at the .5 yard line...

 

[WesternHeretic]

Should've been 1st and Goal for Lions at the .5 yard line...

No at the inch line. LOL. Half the distance from spot of fumble. So literally a few cm away.

 

[Afrikan]

greatest shirt of all time.... wow.

Nah man, we're done. Giants and Ravens will trounce us.

Should've been a touchdown, but Johnson fumbled.

 

[Spectral Glider]

Ray Lewis just wants to murder somebody for this because his pea brain can't understand.

Game got out of hand versus the Steelers... we had easy dropped passes that could've extended drives..built confidence for Kap and the offense...then when we tried to make another run, Hyde fumbled before we even started.

this is the worse I've seen Kap play... Cards and Packers game....horrible passes and playing not to turn the ball over.

but we also are still calling horrible plays..

there have been other good starting QBs who had horrible back to back games... just gotta see if Tomsula makes some changes to the oline and to the playcall and imo formations (get rid of jumbo read option plays..especially in important situations)

 

[Herpes Reasons]

MikeTirico @miketirico

On the touchback. Official involved said he thought bat was inadvertent. Clearly it wasn't. Not reviewable because it is a foul

How can a ref standing right there rule it inadvertent? Starting to make NBA refs look good.

 

[Gigglepoo]

90% of the blame goes to Calvin Johnson for fumbling, 10% goes to Caldwell for not knowing the rules.
