After that beating yesterday, making the playoffs might be a struggle, but if we could change the outcome of ONLY 2 plays this year, we would be sitting at 8-3 instead of 6-5. Those 3 losses would be blowouts (Rams, Ravens, Whiners). How would everyone feel about Waldron, Pete, and Geno if that were the case and everything else remains the same?
The 2 plays: Week 6 vs Bengals - 44-seconds left from CIN 8yd line, 3rd&8. Instead of an Incomplete pass, Geno hits Lockett for a TD. Seahawks win 20-17 against Bengals.
Week 11 vs Rams - 3-seconds left from LAR 37yd line, 3rd &8. Instead of a missed 55yd FG, Meyers nails it and Seattle wins 19-17 against Rams.
Change the outcome of these 2 plays and Seahawks are 8-3, 2-2 in division, but their 3 losses are blowouts (30-13 vs Rams, 37-3 @ Ravens, 31-13 vs Whiners). How do you feel about this team going into the next 3 games? How do you feel about them making playoffs? Are people still questioning Waldron, Geno, and Pete?
It would be fool’s gold because every time this team plays a real contender, we definitively see they aren’t even in the same ballpark.
