Final thought on the Superbowl, Seattle DID NOT almost win...

[Yavin4]

Rather, they almost STOLE the win. Seattle had a 10 point lead, and their "stellar" defense let up 14 points. That's where they lost the game.

All Pete Carroll cost them was a chance to "steal" a game that they should have lost.

1. That stellar defense was also significantly depleted by the 4th quarter as well.

While the Jeremy Lane injury definitely hurt the secondary, Cliff Avril's absence due to the concussion was a game changer.

2. This is the Superbowl

The defense has to step it up, no matter what.

3. And Edelman should have been out of the game

Seattle was stung with a bunch of injuries and it hurt them in the end

4. Rubbish

5. Nonsense! In a game like that, whichever team scores last wins.

It was such a great game that even I, who don't care for televised sports at all and finds all the hoopla and loud, obnoxious announcers particularly irritating, found it interesting enough to watch at least a third of it.

The teams were well matched.

6. I think Seattle's defense was better this year than last year, but last years defense

was deeper, and this was exposed in the superbowl because of the injuries.

7. Fate, For The Hate...EOM!!!

Just calling it like it is.
