I'm pissed. I feel that Seattle's decision to on-side kick to start OT was literally the worst play calling that Seattle or any other team has ever made. It makes absolutely no sense. They have arguably one of the best Defenses in the league, who already had 3 turnovers and a TD... Why the hell are you not just kicking that ball down into their endzone and allowing your defense to just go to work and hammer out that win.
And look im cool if Seattle wants to run surprise calls every now and then. Look you want to surprise on-side kick? Fine do it first play of the game when you can recover when it fails. why the fuck would you just do it in OT when a TD wins the game makes zero sense.
The Rams looked legit though
I can think of a worse call The Seahawks have made....."SUPERBOWL" Not running Lynch..Yeah...
No, it's not a worse call. There was a whole lot more riding on the outcome of that play call (Superbowl verses first game), however the super bowl slant call was not worse then kicking onside kick to start OT when a TD ends it. Not saying the superbowl wasn't a bad call in that situation, but it's a play that could have panned out. onside kicks are super low probability and acts of desperation.
And if we hadn't onside kick then they wouldnt have even got that. It was a retarded play call. I don't even hate onside kicks... Just the way the current OT rules are, never should you ever do an onside kick. Even if I had the worst defense in the league, I'd still make sure they start at teh 20 in OT.
Na.. Lynch in Backfield that close and you pass it???No way....M Lynch gets that ball..no brainer..Superbowl..not week 1..There is no tomorrow after superbowl

disagree. Im not saying the slant pass was a good play call, but it is a play that has a reasonable probability of being successful. On second and goal like that, I dont think a pass play is a bad idea at all, however I would have put it in a corner where only your guy has a chance of catch. Then on 3rd and 4th you feed Lynch.
It's not like the run was a sure thing either... Lynch could have fumbled and game over. Dont get me wrong, im not advocating against the run in that play. The run is your highest and safest probably for success. However a pass play on second makes the defense have to still protect the pass and the run on 3rd which makes the run much easier.
Excited for the game tonight. But 2 games in 5 days is gonna be hard on Peyton. And the defense. Its either gonna be something like 17-13 Broncos or the Chiefs are gonna blow us out lol
