This is an absolutely stunning statistic.

Loved Nantz telling it like it is with Greg Hardy. Embarrassing that it's gotten so little play compared to Ray Rice, etc

A few problems with the Seattle offense. Wilson still holds onto the ball too long. They had Rawls have a monster day; yet at no point did Wilson do a read option? That's what got him back into games early last year when they were down, and with the running back doing that sort of damage today, there was plenty of chance to pull it and run himself and catching CIN looking for Rawls.

Graham - Wilson has had the very excellent Zack Miller in his time with Seattle the last 3 years. Miller could block as good as any TE, and was a very dependable receiver. He ended up being Wilson's safety valve the latter half of two seasons ago, and last year (Miller took a pay cut to come back after the SB win). Miller got hurt in week 3 or 4 and Wilson struggled. So, Seattle gets Graham. Problem is Graham doesn't block to the level Miller does (part of the O line issue).

Graham is now keyed on, so that second or third look where Miller was open before when things started to break down, the TE isn't open now, and Wilson is not finding the guy who now may be down the field (Baldwin/Kearse). Plus, the pressure of looking for a high profile player like Graham who can make plays, is frustrating Wilson.

Bottom line, yes, the O line is bad, but not a lot worse outside of Unger. Wilson in previous years has used the run more, or has had a back or a TE come open before the pressure gets there. This year, the TE is covered and he's not able to find another guy open, or willing to make the decision quick enough to run...or calling his own number from the start.

That's not all Bevell.

I just saw someone holding a Flames flag behind the goal posts in the Dallas/ patriots game after an extra point kick. Pretty cool.
I just rewound it paused it, and there is also some saskatchewan rough riders flags.
Whoops just noticed Flabbibulin already mentioned this, sorry.

Broncos defense is now the class of the league. Peyton is a game manager now and the defense will take them as far as they go.

Broncos offense is very concerning to me since they haven't established any form of a running game up to this point. That's gonna be the achilles heel for the Broncos this year, since Manning is interception happy now, so the passing game isn't a strength either. Damn shame since the defense is absolutely killing it.

Great drive by Eli without his top 3 receivers for most of it. Up by a field goal with 20 seconds left
