Thoughts on Seattle’s decision to punt with under 3 minutes left?

[RobertWeathers]

Not Pete Carroll's best moment, but you must admit that it wasn't as bad as throwing a pass on 2nd and Goal at the 1 with 26 seconds left in the Super Bowl.

I thought it was a great call.

I thought it was a great call.

It wasn’t a bad call at all. It only looks that way in retrospect because of the result, which (interception on a pass at the one) was so rare that it was the first time that it had happened all year in the NFL, and happened due amazing study and preparation in practice and execution by our cornerback.

A better choice would have been a corner/post route.

You don't go for it on 4th and 11. Get the ball back and win.

How about 4th/13?

Lynch was only 1 for 5 from the 1 yard line that year and the Pats had already stopped him on a 3rd and 1.

Along this slant, does Pete Carroll deserve to be considered a good HC? He's not a bad HC but he adds little. Wilson has carried this team this decade.

I think Carroll has held Wilson back to some extent by insisting on being a run-first team despite rotating through a cast of miserable castoffs at running back and a questionable offensive line.

I watched the video and liked her.

I know you’re kidding but man, someone out there is volunteering to be with that. Yikes.
