There is no doubt he could have played.

Not playing him is conservative. Decision based on fear. But it is what it is no point in bitching now.

North of the 49th.
So you're perfectly sanguine at another slide provoked by yet another KM injury debacle lingering through a significant number of games? Not calling him a girly man--his injury issues are an enormous problem. That, to date, is not debatable.

Slide???

Fear of another epic collapse?

Well,we've had 5 in the last 10. Bye is next week and gets a warm up with the Bears.

So glad we rested him.

If Murray is practicing then he is playing. More dumb gamesmanship

Why is it "dumb"? If it makes the Seahawks dilute their preparation, why would you make a prediction?

Plus, Murray got in a limited practice last week, then didn't play. Plus, who knows how his ankle will respond after practice?

Seems to me, it would be "dumb" to make a definitive statement today regarding what's going to happen Sunday. And it might violate NFL rules since if he's 100% in then he needs to be removed from the injury report.

It's dumb because if he is practicing on Wednesday he is going to play barring a new injury or a significant setback
Well there's a "dumb" statement in this thread somewhere, that's for sure.

Yeah I already said in the game thread I had never seen a guy practice 3 straight days and play.

It was very very odd
It was reported last night that KK talked him into sitting. Kyler felt great and was focused on playing. The turf in Seattle is crap and players were falling all over the place. I think that may have been why KK talked him into sitting one more week IMHO.

That would account for it on some level but if the ankle was that bad then why risk a Wednesday practice?

It worked out so I am glad

You’ve got to test it out when you start feeling better. Doesn’t mean he was taking hits or scrambling all over the place. Very little risk in practicing if capable.
