That was the worst play call in the history of the NFL

I bet Wilson could have done play action rollout and walked in. Or if they have it covered then just throw it away. That's called no-risk. ON 2nd down in a 4 down situation you want a no risk play there. Instead they call the riskiest play possible. There is no excusing the play call even though some here are trying. Even on a good throw it's too easy for the ball to bounce off the receiver's hands into a defender's hands. On 4th down I could buy that try, but on 2nd down there -- no, just no. Not at all. No way.

Investigation should be launched into Insider Trading on the part of Seahawks personnel.

They threw this game for gambling reasons.

But the media will never mention this.

No other explanation for such stupidity.

If so, maybe this can help raise awareness towards mental illness.

i was shocked 2, at that point you were giving seattle what looked like 3 plays to win the game, this will be the longest offseason ever for seattle

I usually don't comment on forums but I honestly think this was politics to prove you Russell Wilson will be a high paid qb in the offseason and letting us know that they are choosing Russell Wilson over lynch anybody who watch that team know lynch is the man of that team

Yea, I wouldn't mind two plays with Lynch then on 4th down do a pass attempt.
At least then Lynch gets some attempts to get a touchdown.

Nothing wrong with the call; the defense was looking for Lynch. If Wilson throws the ball in the right place (low, where only the WR can catch it) they either score or have Lynch twice more from one yard out.

lol . Nothing wrong with the call??? Oh yeah, there was alot wrong with that call

I think this face say it all................

Double Bogey · 02-01-15, 10:29 PM

and also people aren't talking about how huge that encroachment penalty was. It was going to be hard to keep it out of the endzone for brady for a safety. Without that penalty they could have had a chance at still winning the game. full retard all around for the seahawks. unbelievable

BigDofBA · 02-01-15, 10:29 PM

Considering it was my biggest bet of the year, being on the Pats, I think it was the greatest call in history.

Because the synapses weren't firing they said game over as everyone thought it was until the worst play call ever happened.

They were looking for Lynch the whole game, he still had 102 yards @ 4.3 ypc. Everything wrong with that call.

Wouldn't have mattered, @ that point they had 2 left. Seattle could have still drained the clock.

interesting theory. Alot of people hate Lynch but all you are going to hear about on sports radio this week is that call. Will be at the top for internet searches for worst coaching calls in history but if I were Lynch I would be really considering my options

jimmy007oc · 02-01-15, 10:39 PM

I'm in shock rn guys. Can't believe they called that play. Stupid called ever man. Whoever made that called should get fired tmr

Unfortunately we'll never know. Was a gamble either way. Not saying it was right or wrong, but without 3 the clock was mostly out of their control.

Snowball · 02-01-15, 10:43 PM

We don't know who made the call, Carroll, the O.C., or Wilson.. but the same thing happens
all the time, the short pass over the run chosen when the D is expecting the run. Also the clock
was an issue, it takes time to get everyone ready to do it again.. did Seattle have a timeout
remaining ?

Keep trying. I think you'd be hard-pressed to find any Seattle fan that agrees with you, much less any coach or player. Too each his own.

SEAHAWKHARRY · 02-01-15, 10:44 PM

Yeah they had two

PAULYPOKER · 02-01-15, 10:44 PM

Put it this way...
Seattle was in the Superbowl on a miracle onside kick and some very lucky couple series of plays to begin with..

Then you add that miracle ball landing on the WR with better odds of getting struck by lightning..

It was due in the land of odds for karma to finally strike the hawk's Cinderella asses after that NFC championship to visit the SB then having it taken from their undeserving hands in dramatic fashion..........

Karma baby!

Can you say it?

thetrinity · 02-01-15, 10:45 PM

ya just showed the play, new england could have called timeout with 59 seconds left

Mac4Lyfe · 02-01-15, 10:47 PM

Pete Carroll said he made the call and apologized to the team.

That was a pretty bad call but the receiver Lockette made a horrible attempt to catch the ball. He didn't know Butler was jumping the route as he thought Butler was picked. Can't blame Wilson, that was a good throw. Just real bad luck on an inexplicable play call. Just run Lynch and go hoist the trophy. They deserve to lose if they don't want Lynch to get credit.

thetrinity · 02-01-15, 10:47 PM

i think seattle had 1 and new england had 2 before that play

PAULYPOKER · 02-01-15, 10:50 PM

If they wouldn't have changed that play, Vegas and off shore would have most likely lost BILLIONS..........

So who ever called that play.
They were told and payed to do so........

gregm · 02-01-15, 10:52 PM

hopefully marshawn will think about the ravens next year or even the patriots. seattle may be losing alot next year, with the patriots he would be playing for the greatest coach in football
