Seahawks Encroachment Penalty

[BradyBranch39]

This still boggles my mind. We are in the 1 yard line with 20 seconds remaining, instead of making us take a safety and getting the ball back ( a possible scenario ) with 10 seconds remaining in the clock, the DL was kind of flapping his hands and just walked over the LOS. This is inspite of other Seahawks defenders trying to pull him back. It looked like he was under a spell or something !

I don't know what exactly transpired it was very weird watching it. Will they not know that we will try to get them off sides ?

They've led the league in false starts and offsides penalties all season long, so that part about it was far from unexpected.

I will not be surprise if it all starts to unravel under Carroll in Seattle. His guys are out of control and the only think keeping them is the fact that they are winning. A down year will bring the house of cards down.

Well that was what happened to Carrol here. It all works great when you are winning, but as soon as there are struggles these guys turn on their coach.

Let's say Brady ran a "QB sneak" and Seattle stuffs and pushes him back. There would not be a safety because he would be given forward progress even if it were only a few inches.

Not necessarily. Brady doesn't get the ball from exactly the line of scrimmage when center gives it to him..so if seattle gets great pressure up the middle it's entirely possible that brady can't make it back to that line. Tackle for loss would be a safety

Even more stupid...I am pretty sure one DT lined up with his head over the ball anyway...so they were offside the whole time!

They were all over the neutral zone. You knew they were going to jump.

Must be why they lost their cool, after that interception the Seahawks were emotionally vulnerable and we took advantage.
