Enough with the stupid penalties already!
Seriously, how many dumb penalties can Seattle get? (THAT QUESTION ISN’T A CHALLENGE!)
Sweezy’s awful personal foul killed a first half drive. Sherman’s DPI bailed out the Packers on 3rd and super long and lead to a Green Bay score. KJ Wright got himself ejected for crying out loud.
Oh, and then there were THREE (not 1, not 2, but 3!) times were Michael Bennett was offsides in the first half alone. Two of them extended scoring drives for the Packers when the defense had otherwise had them stopped.
This cannot continue.
Beating a good team, especially a good team when playing on a road, is hard enough in the NFL. There is no reason to have to beat yourself while you’re at it.
Next: Wilson finally kept the ball!
