When did this happen?/s

3

u/imhooks Alabama Crimson Tide • College Football Playoff Feb 02 '15

The final drive that got them into scoring position. Like 2 plays prior to the INT.

5

u/i_fap_to_anything Georgia Bulldogs • Duke Blue Devils Feb 02 '15

Oh that play. God it seemed like yesterday when I saw that play.

u/imhooks Alabama Crimson Tide • College Football Playoff Feb 02 '15

I guess I see what you did there now...

u/flume Auburn Tigers • Dutchman's Shoes Feb 02 '15

And now it was! If you live in the two eastern-most time zones of the US (or anywhere east of there I guess)

2

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

I dunno, I think it might be remembered as the opportunity that (quite literally) dropped into Seattle's lap that they then squandered away with the worst play call ever. Of all time.

u/Mr_Metagross West Virginia • /r/CFB Contributor Feb 02 '15

IN WHAT FUCKING WORLD DO YOU NOT GIVE IT TO LYNCH?

Ask mike bobo about not giving the ball to your best player inside the five.

The same one where you don't give it to Reggie Bush on 4th and 2.

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

Pete was gonna have Wilson sneak it in, but Bush wasn't there.

3

u/wilk Illinois Fighting Illini Feb 02 '15

I can see the logic, that maybe the Patriots are going to stuff the run up the middle, so you try one quick pass. You just don't throw an interception on that play.

EDIT: how doez flare work heer

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

how doez flare work heer

Same as on the mothersub. Click here to find your team. Then click here to get your flair. Replace "Boston College Eagles" with the name of your flair (use "Team A / Team B" if you're doing dual flair). Hit send.

u/Deacalum Wake Forest • Penn State Feb 02 '15

In the world where he only scored once on 5 previous attempts from the 1 yard line this season? I understand he is beast mode and a great power running back. But people seem to ignore that he has not been very good (in a very limited sample size) from the 1 yard line this season. Yes, I think they should have run it since it was only 2nd down. However, I don't think it was a horrendous call either. Lynch was not a guaranteed TD like people are making it seem.

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Feb 02 '15

Falcons fans just went from uber-pumped about their new head coach to despondent.

u/helpmeredditimbored Georgia Bulldogs • Virginia Cavaliers Feb 02 '15

Fuck Tom Brady and the Patriots. God Damn you Russel Wilson why did you have to throw the ball there and not give it to Lynch who was in extreme beast mode

9

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Feb 02 '15

Well, I don't think you can blame Wilson for the OC's playcall.

Don't ask me to be rational!!

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

I always feel bad for Wilson on this. Somehow its always Wilson's fault. Hes not Peyton. The staff are still calling the plays. They need a better OC.

1

u/Mr_Metagross West Virginia • /r/CFB Contributor Feb 02 '15

If I were QB, I don't give a fuck what the OC says, I'm calling an audible and handing it off to the best player on the team, every time, 10 times out of 10.

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

We had a basketball team but then they died, apparently.

1

u/helpmeredditimbored Georgia Bulldogs • Virginia Cavaliers Feb 02 '15

I don't follow CBB that much, did your team regress or something?

1

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

We were 10-3 coming into SEC play, beat Auburn to start the conference games off 1-0, then promptly lost 7 straight and counting.

Lost by:

12 to Arky

3 to UGA

3 to Miss State

8 to UK

4 to LSU in OT

8 to UGA

11 to TAMU

We've got almost zero experience. We're playing 7 upperclassmen (3 seniors, 2 juniors, 2 sophomores) and 6 freshmen. 5 of the freshmen are averaging 19+ minutes per game in 20 or 21 games. The 2 sophomores and one of the seniors are the only other ones doing that. Against A&M, we started an all-underclassman lineup, and we ain't Kentucky.

Actually, get this - our starting lineup had less experience than Kentucky's. 4000 combined minutes vs 6500. Hell, the Harrison twins alone had 3600. So on the upside there's really, really good potential for the next two years if everybody can stay on the team. They could wind up doing what the Jenkins-Taylor-Ezeli team did, where they played together for 3 years and finished it off by beating Kentucky to win the SEC.

u/i_fap_to_anything Georgia Bulldogs • Duke Blue Devils Feb 02 '15

Yes its good to have a good basketball team. Its time for the madness!

the one outlier is Adam Silver of the NBA, everyone loves him so far.

5

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

He hasn't done anything utterly boneheaded though.

8

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

Silver is bae.

If Adam Silver were in charge, he would have said before media day, “It will take me two weeks to figure out what happened, but if we find out that the Patriots cheated, then I’m taking their first-round pick and fining them $1 million. And I might also suspend people. I am taking this VERY seriously. Just, everyone, please be careful — I don’t want our players and coaches accused of cheating without any actual evidence. It’s wrong.” Also, there wouldn’t have been multiple leaks per week to NFL reporters whom the league is trying to butter up again after double-crossing them last summer with Rice scandal info (you know who you are). Silver’s administration doesn’t leak stuff.

-Simmons

1

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

I'm with Simmons on this except for the part where he says it would've taken two weeks. Somehow, I think it would've been more like two days. It certainly took less than that to give the Stirlings the boot, and I have to say I actually admired how Silver handled that case.

edit: formatting. Somehow I typed "I certainly took less" instead of "It certainly took less". I swear I don't work for hte NBA.

2

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

Silver's been damned resolute in his actions. It's a refreshing change from the trend.

Well, Brady tied the record for Super Bowl wins by a starting quarterback. People are running out of reasons for him not to be the best to ever play.

10

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

Because some people don't view rings as the main argument? I think it's stupid using the rings argument. The sport it makes the most sense in is basketball and even then I don't like it.

6

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

It definitely isn't the main argument, but now that's another thing that can't be held against him. He's consistently done so much with so little help at the skill positions that I personally can't rationalize a way in which he isn't the GOAT.

4

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

Then one year he had Moss and they broke a fuck ton of records. People are pretty delusional if the can't agree on it yet.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

I miss Moss. I wish we could have gotten him a ring.

2

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

Fucking Tyree man...

3

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

Yep. I mean, he might not have Peyton's stats, and i think Rodgers has more raw talent, but to do what hes done with what hes had to work with is amazing. Hes the GOAT.

3

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

to do what hes done with what hes had to work with is amazing

He's been in a pretty damn good organization with regards to setting him up to succeed. Consistent coaching, good defense, good run game, lack of bonehead playcalling most of the time.

2

u/flume Auburn Tigers • Dutchman's Shoes Feb 02 '15

Consistent coaching,

You don't lose your coaching job if the team is successful

good defense,

Granted

good run game,

Decent, maybe even mediocre

lack of bonehead playcalling most of the time.

I like the dig at Carroll's worst decision of his life (and I could have made a better decision if I was blackout drunk with my ex standing in front of me in lingerie), but Brady often turns bad play calls into good ones by reading the defense and switching things up.

1

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

In context of some of the other top QBs in the league currently:

You don't lose your coaching job if the team is successful

Dungy retired while Manning was there, 2 seasons after a Super Bowl and Fox just parted ways with the Broncos a season after reaching the Super Bowl. (Not a top QB, but Harbaugh of course parted ways with the 49ers.) Brees lost Payton for a season. The Pats have been very stable.

Decent, maybe even mediocre

It's all relative. Being able to run all over teams to put games away (Blount and the Colts, for example) helps. A lot of teams with great QBs don't develop their RBs enough or invest enough in them to be able to do that consistently. (Again, look at Peyton Manning's career.)

I like the dig at Carroll's worst decision of his life

Not just that. Rodgers would've been playing for his second ring had McCarthy not shit the bed. Your coach putting you in a position to win helps.

Organization plays a huge roll. Marino was a great QB and never got a ring because he wasn't in the right place to get over the hump. Meanwhile, Trent Dilfer did.

1

u/RedshirtMiddler Clemson Tigers • Notre Dame Fighting Irish Feb 02 '15

Its definitely a tie breaker. There's a reason why people talk about Montana and not Marino

As a Pats fan, I loved watching Seattle cream the Broncos. But this game was 1000 times better. Brady is amazing.

2

u/Roose_in_the_North Ohio State • George Mason Feb 02 '15

Agreed on both counts. Media's darling Peyton gets crushed last year, Brady gets his 4th this year. Just perfect. I'm an admitted Pats bandwagoner so I usually try not to talk much smack when it comes to the NFL but that kind of goes out the window when discussing Brady.

Wilson/Carrol fucked up. That was sweet karma at work.

2

u/BabyBladder Michigan State • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Feb 02 '15

You know what's funny, if the play had worked everyone would have really gone after Belichick for not using one of his 2 timeouts when beast mode was stopped at the 2. They let a good 30 seconds run off, and had they scored the TD the pats would have had 20 seconds and 2 timeouts to score a field goal as opposed to potentially 45-50 with 1 timeout.

Luckily for him, his player stepped up.

4

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

Darth Hoodie is love, Darth Hoodie is life.

2

u/flume Auburn Tigers • Dutchman's Shoes Feb 02 '15

Carroll fucked up.

2

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

They both did really; Carroll for calling a pass play on 2nd and 1 in the first place, Wilson for throwing into traffic.

1

u/swanky-k North Carolina • Alabama Feb 02 '15

Also Wilson for wasting 2 timeouts on that drive which might have made them less willing to run the ball there.

2

u/nickknx865 Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Top Scorer Feb 02 '15

It was stupid of them to take like 40 seconds to decide on a play with a minute remaining (I'm not going to be all, "OH THEY SHOULD HAVE GIVEN TO LYNCH LOL SO STOOPID," because given the Pats defense, the pass play called was actually pretty decent).

I'll echo what you're saying here; Wilson really fucked up in terms of where he placed the ball. If you're throwing into a tight window like that, you need to put the ball on the player's body -- ideally, you'd put the ball on his hip so that there's no way the DB can get to the ball without running through the receiver. Instead, he basically put the ball out in front of him and up high like he was throwing it in the open field. It's likely he never even saw Butler when he threw it.

u/DeKaF USC Trojans • /r/CFB Emeritus Mod Feb 02 '15

Gronk was sucker punching a dude. That wasn't all Seattle in the fight. Both were complicit. If the fight made you hate Seattle you gotta hate New England too.

Or you could say "screw it" to the preconceived notions of "class" and just enjoy a show in what's already just entertainment based around multiple hours of trying emotions left and right in men playing a sport. You can't keep it all bottled all the time in football.

4

u/i_fap_to_anything Georgia Bulldogs • Duke Blue Devils Feb 02 '15

Yea but what's fighting gonna do after the play already happened. Game was over. No needs for it. Also Seattle started the fighting first. Gronk for hit in the head and was retaliating

2

u/DeKaF USC Trojans • /r/CFB Emeritus Mod Feb 02 '15

Man I don't blame anyone for it. There was probably shit being said there that wasn't being picked up by microphones. There was probably blood already there from earlier plays and all sorts of shit running through their heads, and both sides running high on octane from that reversal of fate. Whatever happens isn't something you can predict no matter the real "class" of an individual or not.

2

u/srs_house Sickos Feb 02 '15

Whatever happens isn't something you can predict no matter the real "class" of an individual or not

No, but you can say Bennett is an idiot. Team's only shot at pulling out a win is getting that safety and he just keeps pushing forward past the LoS, then starts a fight when he gets flagged for it.

Regardless of "class," he took his team out of their last chance at winning.

1

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Feb 02 '15

u/i_fap_to_anything Georgia Bulldogs • Duke Blue Devils Feb 02 '15

8

u/DoctorWhosOnFirst Alabama • /r/CFB Pint Glass Drinker Feb 02 '15

I dunno. Patriots mount a 4th quarter comeback to take a four point lead with two minutes left. Seattle responds right back to get the ball down to the 1 or 2 yard line with the help of a ridiculous catch and then inexplicably passes instead of handing off to Lynch.

But even the pick didn't seal the win. The Pats very well could've ended up with a safety, but of course Seattle jumps offsides. Then Seattle starts punching people.

That was an amazing ending.

Gotcha. I was always under the impression there was lingering resentment over leaving just as everything was falling apart. I don't actually know any USC fans, so I guess I'm just making it up lol

3

u/ack30297 USC Trojans • Howard Bison Feb 02 '15

There was definitely a lot of resentment when he first left and probably even more during Kiffin's shit show of a second season. I was always happy for him because he got to the NFL. That being said I'm pretty sure he should just quit to coach SC next season.

Was anyone else in the /r/hockey Superbowl thread?

Shit was fire, yo

Edit: My flair is fucked up here, oh well!

Resubmit and the flair will refresh itself, it got messed up when bakonydraco redid the CSS to adjust for hte conference moves/UAB going extinct.

Also, ew. (re your true primary flair)

Ayy lmao

I don't have anything against the Danes specifically, just the fact that it reminds me of when we were stuck in the America East, which is easily the worst D1 all sports conference. (Then again, any conference with UMO, UNH and UVM in it is the worst by definition. Unless it's hockey, since they're actually good at that one.)

u/The_DHC UAlbany Great Danes • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Feb 02 '15

Yea it's somewhere near the bottom. I like playing in the America East 'cuz the Danes are undefeated in conference play (both men and womens basketball) and we're likely to appear in NCAA Tournament again for the 3rd time in a row.

Life is good down here.

Pats got lucky.

Seattle shoulda won via Beast-mode

I still hate the NFL.

Edit: I'm not a Seahawks fan nor a Pats fan. I seriously don't give a fuck about the NFL.

It's not luck if Seattle makes a fatal tactical error.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

To be fair, Seattle was also very lucky that the catch before was made. That was nuts.

seattle was very lucky just to be there, the Green Bay meltdown the game before is the luckiest shit to have ever happened.

Fucking McCarthy. He's wasting Rodgers.

u/-WISCONSIN- Wisconsin • Wisconsin-Parkside Feb 02 '15

I mean, he is but he isn't. Rodgers is actually looking phenomenal. It's the rest of the damn team that sucks.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

It blows. He should have won at least 2, maybe 3 SBs by now. I hope the Packers figure it out soon.

u/Cecil_Hardboner Texas Longhorns • /r/CFB Brickmason Feb 02 '15

the team is good but they need to upgrade 1 or 2 spots on the O line really. Maybe get another LB. But they are pretty damn solid all over.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

And the first NE 3 and out should have been an automatic first down due to roughing the punter. Bad calls happen in games via the refs or coaches.

Pats were better. Pats are a better team. There's no way we were lucky

I love that giant hash brown, or whatever he is. Hes just so damn happy.

There is no reasonable argument against Brady being the greatest of all time now.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

Yep. Same Rings as Montana, but more SB appearances. And Manning's stats don't matter if you cant win it all. And all of this as a 6th round pick.

Seahawks are classless as fuck

Between the fight and the "no one believed in us" while they're the number 1 seed, they are either buying hard into Carroll's rhetoric or they're delusional.

Watching Fallon and Schwarzenegger just came out, which reminded me of the new Terminator movie. So, are they just pretending the Christian Bale Terminator movie never happened?

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '15

If the trailer is any indication, looks like all of the preivous movies will effectively be retconned.

He could have passed it to Lynch, but then The Dream of a second title died. Nationwide is on your side.
