Exactly. Anywhere else on the field a fumble out of bounds goes back to where it was lost.

You get 3 points for being at home so basically Vegas thinks this is a toss-up, which I tend to agree with. I like our chances of covering, but probably to the tune of something like 24-20.

You can make this same argument both ways... Should I be impressed that we scored 35 against the Raiders? The same Raiders that have given up 34, 35, 10 (Titans), 27, and 31? You can't just look at their schedule and say "See what they did against this team! They suck!" The NFL is cyclical and the Seahawks have a track record along with getting a fully healthy Wilson back against us, in their house. The defense is no joke, just like Denver's. And honestly, I think their defense matches up better with us than Denver's did.

Not a good team? I understand being confident in our falcons, but Seattle is very much a good team. Even with a hobbled Wilson, they've put up 37 and 27 in their last 2 games. Coming off a BYE, Wilson should be ready to go. Mobile QBs have been a problem for us in the past (and while we have improved our LBs) and I believe it will be a challenge to contain Wilson. This is very much a winnable game, but let's keep some perspective.

Looking at it wrong...that's a 20% DROP rate. Anyway, I'm not hating on the signing. Fact is, we needed a receiver. Sanu is big and physical. Anyone crying over Benjamin or Jones is forgetting one thing....they weren't available. They signed elsewhere.

Mike Smith would be proud.

Exactly...I have no idea what they're complaining about. Boneheaded play

Delete. Thought wrong.

The Saints were fined 500k and 2 2nd round picks for bounty gate. That's severe. This "severe" is probably a large fine. I'm not too worried about it. Hate to lose a draft pick, but rules are rules.

Exactly NCAA OT is exhausting to watch. I personally preferred it where a FG would end it. Now people want a TD not to end it? Terrible.

LMAO!

This is possibly one of the most helpful and insightful analyses the I've ever seen. I have been so cold on Dupree but this explanation of what he could be has me exceptionally intrigued.

Agreed. I'm not a fan of FA running backs, but a fresh start pairing him with Freeman and a splash of Tone would make for a pretty solid backfield.

That roster was pieced together with vets and was never meant to sustain itself. Did Dimi have a bad (horrible) 2013 offseason? No doubt. Give Quinn and Dimi a chance once FA opens. Gusfraba.

LMAO. Because I choose not to freak out before FA has even officially begun it means I like losing. Got it.

Meltdown activated. I love the offseason on this forum.

Cobb just got 10M. We need to lock Julio up before it gets really out of hand.

I'm imagining the TATF meltdown now if he's re-signed. I hate Biermann, but I'd be down for that!

"Even a broken clock can score 3 touchdowns in the first half". LMAO.

Mike Smith did cost us two games this year. Something some of you haven't considered though is that going 5-1 in division play will likely see a correction since the NFCS is the most unpredictable division in the NFL. Of course, the counter to that would be that our non divisional play will also (almost assuredly) see a correction. Will we be a better COACHED team minus Mike Smith and plus Dan Quinn? Absolutely. Without a doubt. Will we end up with a better record? That remains to be seen. There has been no free agency, no draft, etc. Point is....this exercise is futile. Especially at this stage of our offseason. Sit back, enjoy the Super Bowl, get ready for Dan Quinn's tenure, and hope for a successful draft and free agency.

Exactly...people forget he was coming off a DUI as well as the multiple positive tests for marijuana.

Man...I feel like I just said this.

A 1st year HC, and Rex Ryan just had 4 disastrous seasons in a row. I think he'll be given time. They won't be calling for his head in year 2 like some would around here.

Have you ever considered that Bowles took the NYJ job because there would be infinitely less pressure to win right away? He's already been handed a pretty good defensive roster and the offense is a disaster. He's going to be given time.

Now THAT.....was uncomfortable.
