Seahags..

have now lost two in a row on bonehead coaching decisions. Pete Caroll's ego has now cost his team victories. Why would you call for an onside kick to start overtime with the defense they have/

I'll tell you why. Pete's team got schooled on the fake punts last year so old Pistol Pete was going to try and look like a genius.

Thanks Pete! For now, the footsteps you hear are in front of you!.

Their real problem is the OL.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Good loss for us. We need them to lose as many as possible.

Caroll claimed he called a squibb kick & the kicker got confused.

Or that's just what that asshat says after his call doesn't work.

 

[gmabel830]

Dunno if the kicker is taking the wrap, but both he and Carroll said it was not supposed to be an inside kick but rather a directional kick down the field that was botched

34-31 game for two teams predicated on elite defense and marginal offense. Something's gotta give.

What is the overtime rule if the Seahawks had recovered the onside kick and got a field goal? Would the game have been over or would the Rams have a chance to get the ball?

I dont think it is a terrible call going for the onside if your team wins with a field goal. If not, I think that is an awful idea going for an onside there.

You would probably win the game on the FG because it is like a turnover. However, if your team is totally over matched I can see it. But they are regularly touted as the best defense in the league. If Chancellor means that much to them well lets drop "The Best" title.

It was a great call by Petey......lol I laughed

After thinking it through, I don't hate the call, they had the ball back and had a chance to at least tie the game. I am thinking a lot of teams are going to have trouble running against that St Louis defensive line, especially running out of the shotgun formation. That onside call didn't go their way but I don't think they lost because of it.

Ha ha! Who cares, they lost. Dang man, I hate that team.

Okay, we'll agree to disagree.

The onside kick basically put St. Louis in FG range and they won the game w a FG so idk about that especially if your forte is defense. Kick it deep n let ur d make a play n maybe get another punt return for a td or maybe they force a turnover n get the ball deep.
