Another Seahawks blunder

Well, another Sunday, another disappointment. I guess the referees didn't get the memo that the Seahawks are one of the most disciplined teams in the NFL and seldom if ever get penalties judging by the way they were bailing out San Francisco today. They also missed the seminar on what pass interference is as well.

Courtney Taylor once again forces us to ask the question of why exactly he is on the team. As far as I am aware there is no league requirement that you have a receiver that is good for a few dropped passes every week. And McMullen, where to start. This guy had several drops, ran too short of routes to pick up first downs, fumbled a ball on the 10yd line, oh, and was a key player in an 86 yd interception return for a touchdown due to his inability to catch a ball that hits his hands. Carlson was the only guy that was just catching footballs. Bumpus did a fine job in the return game as well. We must scratch our heads every time Taylor is on the field doing nothing and dropping balls sent his way, why is Jordan Kent on the practice squad?

The secondary once again gave up too many big plays to win a game. Hey, Mr. Jennings, you might want to play better defense or you might find yourself sitting at home with Plackemeier watching the games on Sunday. It probably didn't help us today that our defensive calls seemed to be off base at times allowing O'Sullivan to run wild at times, or their running backs, AGAIN. It was also nice to see them get some deep balls in with nobody covering the deep middle. I had thought we fixed this problem last year, but I guess it is back, AGAIN.

We were running the ball very well today, thank goodness. Can anyone explain why we ran 3 passing plays after they scored in the 3rd quarter there? Then we have to punt and give it right back to them. The next possession we go back to running with a few passes here and there and we move down the field and score.

The Seahawks should have easily crushed the 49ers today, and yet they lose, because they can not get a 3rd stop when they need one. Who cares that you dominated for 90% of the game when you allow the big 3rd conversions in the 4th quarter, and worse yet, overtime. What an incredibly stupid time to decide to blitz on 3rd and 7 when they were doing nothing. Good job, you give up a huge gain and the game was all but over.
