As the title states, how are we feeling about the state of the season and/or how this game played out? For me in regard to the game, i feel like the offense went stagnant in the second half, but i wasn’t too annoyed because both teams’ offenses were dead in the 3rd. In the 4th however is when things got annoying. The no call on Aaron Donald (which was near the end of the 3rd technically but still) was big. You can argue it was clean, but the league has shown it doesnt take much for that flag to be thrown when the hit is high, yet they don’t here? Granted you can chalk it up to the leagues Referees not knowing the rule book which the league should address since it’s been an issue all year across the league, but we all know that’s not going to happen. Very next drive the Rams get their TD from a phantom DPI, honestly should’ve only been a field goal for the Rams there (pending they didn’t go for it which i feel confident the Seahawks would’ve had the stop if they did). Gave the Rams so much momentum and woke the fans back up, which can help alot in a game if you have played any competitive sport. In the end though, I do honestly think if Geno wasn’t hurt we would’ve won that game because some of the throws Lock missed the receiver was there, just they either weren’t on the same page, or the throw wasn’t on target.
Overall, I’m still annoyed but not as much as i was post-game honestly.

I think it speaks volumes about Geno that he was clearly hurting, but put his body on the line and was ripping it downfield.
We are not a great team, we will get better next year, but we will likely lose twice to 49rs and can hope to finish the season 9-8 (but quite possibly 8-9). Quite a disappointment, made more frustrating by the fact that multiple games we’ve had a double digit lead in the second half and lost, or had to win on the last play. For whatever reason - and this isn’t the first year of it - we just cannot finish games
After the Ravens game i never thought we had a chance to really do much in the playoffs. by every friday I have convinced myself otherwise, so this one hurt. Were still building up a base of talent that drafts from 2016-2021 left us DEVOID of. I think our real window will be in the 3rd/4th years/early extension years of the Cross/Woolen/Mafe class. Unfortunate that Pete will never accommodate a TRUE tank, but im definitely not complaining when the alternative is miserable sundays with a loss.
Separately, there are 5 QBs in next years class that will be top 15 picks, still 5-6 more that will be in the conversation up to the second round. the 2024 QB class is STINKY so i think there is a real realm in which we might trade up to get a QB in this next first round. (though i love geno, and the real problem on offense is Shane Waldron)
