Meh. They don't usually call it without a pretty noticeable twist of the helmet, that was borderline. Same with the no PI call in the end zone, need to let that stuff go, for both sides. Let them be physical.

Definitely a fake sport, as I am reminded of another Rams NFCCG in years gone by...

Last time these teams played the Rams fired their special teams coach, almost had to cut a guy mod game right there.

Game of inches. The downfield player from the Seahawks doesn’t think the kick returner is potentially letting the ball over his head, and he recovers that muff.

Man people focus on Stafford but the run game with Corum and Williams is really good too.

Pretty sure they have the best or second best run game in the league by success rate. They are an excellent all-around offense, no real weaknesses.

McVay called that drive perfectly.

Yeah so long as McVay doesn't abandon the run as he sometimes does they look pretty unstoppable right now. Seahawks need to kill the clock here as the first priority, at worst go into the half down 3.

Edit: so exactly the opposite of that.

I'd be inclined to give Shaheed the green light at some point, 15-20 yards of field position is worth the risk for the potential of him taking it back.

14 second drive is not exactly ideal. Yikes.

At least they might get it back now, with three timeouts but not if they play it like that last drive. Yeesh. This is getting away from them.

Ok, take 2... run the ball, please. 3 points is fine, 0 is acceptable, giving the ball back is not acceptable.

Darnold following up the near Darnolding with a beauty throw and all of a sudden a TD is in play.

Game changing drive right there, double possession could put the Seahawks in control.

Zabel got absolutely blown up on that TD too, excellent job by Darnold to make that play in the circumstances. Better outcome than I hoped for, and they get the ball back to start the 2nd half.

The one bad throw, but otherwise Darnold's best playoff half by far. Smith-Njigba is dominating.

Darnold also hit Kupp and Holani in the hands on the prior drive and went 0/2. He's been playing well other than the one throw and the missed snap, and that's kinda the cost of being in the Sam Darnold business.

They have to be able to stop the run though.
