Game Thread: Seahawks at Cardinals

[Sharkonabicycle]

Man does penny look slow. Or it that just me?

Well he was rockin 240 lbs in preseason but now he's 228... That's still pretty massive for a RB and the fluctuation in weight can affect certain muscles, especially if you're packing on fat. I can't imagine he'll show any major speed until he drops another 5+ pounds. Difference between 230 and 220 is MASSIVE (no pun intended). Highest I've ever been is 232 years ago and when I dropped to 220 I was MUCH faster and agile on the bball court (at least I felt that way, but my buddies said I was no longer the fat slow guy LOL - that said, a bunch of fat got replaced by muscles so the difference is probably much greater than 12 pounds).

he was never a quick RB, Penny builds up speed. Hard to do in the pro's when you are always running through traffic.

LOL that's a classic Seattle play. 3rd and long, run it, get stuffed. God Arizona looks atrocious.

Edit: my comments about plays are probably 1-2 minutes behind because I'm forced to a stream because Chicago is retarded and wont accommodate all TV broadcasting for me.

 

[Screamin12th]

that looked better

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Good run Penny. Good 3-4 hard fought yards.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Can't let a field goal get away from us on this.... I know we want the TD but you CANNOT squander that return by Lockett.

Edit: Wilson, why the FUCK did you throw that pass?

Pretty sloppy series there... gotta bring out SBASS though...

Oh great, he missed it. Still the fact he had to boot that 52 yard field goal is ridiculous though.

Why on earth would Wilson throw the ball to Davis? He wasn’t even open. Wilson had more time

 

[Anointed One]

Nother game where Russell Wilson looks ho-hum.

I have no fuckin' clue... it was OBVIOUS the defender was manning him and spying for that pass. As Wilson looked that direction I literally thought, "Do NOT throw it there... throw it away."

That was a bad decision, Wilson shoulda also felt the defender who was right on-top of that...

 

[Screamin12th]

expected to be honest. I told you guys he is a below average career FG% kicker.

No he is not sitting alone he is protecting his damn beer after the two misses.

NFC West scrub bowl living up to its billing.

 

[FirebreathingMonkey]

WOW cards had like 3 wide open drops today

 

[Anointed One]

Josh Rosen has looked really good. He’d be carving up our defense if they could catch it

Yah I wasn't exactly ecstatic when we signed Janikowski. I mean I understood the logic - "This team will likely have a shit offense so we'll need long field goals" but still, take accuracy given missing 50+ yarders is a HUGE swing. I'm still annoyed as fuck all we let Hauschka walk years ago.. all to sign Jon "I am inconsistent Ryan" to a stupid contract only to cut him and spend a draft pick on another punter.

One of the recent many decisions this FO has been absolutely horrid on.

 

[Anointed One]

That looks like a touchdown from Johnson

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

I'd argue inconclusive but can go either way. Regardless Johnson will punch it in with 2 more downs. Rather have 1:50 left so Janikowski can go 0/3.

Either way the PI call was correct. You can't dive towards the receiver while not looking back before the ball arrives.

That ref also seemed WAY too excited about that... Arizona homer refs? "The ruling on the field.. *holds breath* WAS A TOUCHDOWN!" Really, bro?

 

[Cave_Johnson]

This is pretty much what I was afraid of. Rosen is too comfortable and honestly looks solid. Huge upgrade from Bradford as I thought he would be.
