Yes you’re right. Janikowski replaced punter Jon Ryan.

There is no way that's a catch.

EDIT: Holy f*** that's a catch.

Yet Schottenheimer continues to piss me off. Give Russ more play action.

EDIT: SEE?!

Finally some good play calling by Seattle getting Wilson to run.

Do the odds say you should go for 2 there? Seems like a risky call. Edit: maybe not with no kicker.

I'm not totally clear on why they went for two, unless it's because they simply cannot trust anyone to kick a field goal from any distance... which I'm guessing is in fact the reason.

In which case, this game is suddenly very interesting. Unless you're punting, you're basically playing 4 down football regardless of the score. Definitely hard to see Seattle winning a close, defensive struggle without any ability to make a field goal.

Yes completely has to do with kicking, them showing Dickson try to kick traditional fg on the sideline were cringeworthy. Doesn’t look like he’d get much height on kicks with the way he’s following through. I thought for sure they’d have him do drop kick fgs.

An absolutely clutch catch by Baldwin.

It seems like any situation where they'd be willing to kick a drop kick field goal they'd be close enough that it's worth going for it on 4th and trying to get 8 points, given the respective rates of success for each option and the resulting field position if they screw it up.

I suppose if they go backwards it's 4th and goal from the 15, you might see it.

Punt was too far; outkicked his coverage.

Last kickoff was short.

Special teams are costing Seattle.

Seattle's special teams ranking pretty much fell apart the last month of the season. Not all that shocking it's going to cost them this game.

That's a big timeout to lose. If Seattle doesn't get a stop here it might be game, especially with how completely the Cowboys have killed Carson.

EDIT: WELL! That works! Hah, I was just thinking how well Dak has protected the ball in this game.

Huge play! I had a feeling we wouldn't go the entire game with no turnovers.

I mean Dak throw that interception next week after you've locked up yours and Jason's extensions. Dumbass.

Nice to see the Seahawks intent on self-inflicting a loss here.

Indeed. The play calls on offense for Seattle are just baffling. 2nd and 22? Why bother gaining more than 5 yards? 3rd and 20, down 3 in the fourth? Nah, let's give them the ball back. I was actually looking for another quick handoff to Carson, considering how stubbornly they've been pursuing that. For ####'s sake...

Shaquille Griffin is either the worst coverage CB in the NFL or having one of the worst games ice ever seen
