I don't think the coaching was that bad. Outside of going for it inside the 1yd line I don't think the play calling in the 2nd half was that bad. The players themselves appeared to let down. They lost the killer instinct that got them to the point of having their foot on Seattle's throat...
Watching the replay of the onside kick Jordy Nelson looks a lot like Clinton-Dix during the 2pt conversion. If he saw Bostic go up for the ball he should have done something more than become a spectator. Matthews ended up jumping right in front of Nelson gawking at Bostic to get the ball...
Here's to a good game. Outside of Rogers calf, both teams are coming in relatively healthy. At least as healthy as can be expected 18 games into the season. As a Nebraska Husker fan by birth, I feel an appreciation for the fervor with which Green Bay fans support their team, both in good and...
Really? There are always bandwagon fans when a team is at the top but you aren't giving the fan base enough credit. They were selling out the Kingdome even in the lean years.
You don't get an estimated 700k to attend a Superbowl Parade with a franchise that is doesn't have significant support.
I recognize he carries the ball to keep the defense honest but he's not a significant running threat, particularly inside the tackles. It's no secret to anyone that he's back there with the explicit purpose of creating a mismatch in the passing game with Cobb on an LB or Safety. If GB would...
A potential weakness is Chancellor in man-to-man situations against big TEs. Antonio Gates burned him for 3 TDs earlier this season. This is why Chancellor is in zone coverage more often. That also allows him to attack the WRs with his monster hits.
When that happens the threat of the run game is eliminated. I'm sure Seattle will be in nickel or dime based on the GB player package. They have a fair amount t of tape of Cobb in the backfield now so I'm sure they'll devise something to account for it.
Yep. That's when they were trying too hard to get Percy Harvin the ball at the expense of the rest of the offense. It was also nearly 120 degrees on the field in San Diego.
With that said, Philip Rivers played a hell of a game. Kam Chancellor had real problems covering Richard Sherman too.
Seattle has held a lead at some point in the game for a NFL record 53 straight games. Russell Wilson hasn't lost by double digits in any game during his 3 seasons. Simply put, no team has been able to take them out of their ball control plan yet, although their is always a first time.
They rank #3 in rushing defense. I guess that would look like a weakness when compared to Seattle's #1 ranked pass defense. Both games Seattle was without MLB Bobby Wagner. Against Dallas they were also missing Chancellor, Maxwell and KJ Wright, 4 defensive starters.
The key word is "and". You have to land on someone and he clearly cleared the OL. Notice the OG tried to briefly raise up trying to stop Chancellor as this was his second straight successful attempt. Caroll mentioned that they saw something on tape that suggested this would work.
