I think the fact that they've only picked #1 thrice since coming back to the NFL (1999, 2000 and 2017) is the most shocking thing of all.

Michael Bennett should be suspended for the rest of the season for that cheap shot after they lost. He was nominated for an award? A few other Sehawks should be suspended as well.

Bennett should definitely be suspended for multiple games. Richardson should get a game. Jefferson should probably be suspended for a game for climbing into the stands too.

The Seattle organization should be fined for that shit show.

The next kneel is more of the same with another Seattle player ejected and Pete Carroll had to run onto the field to try to settle things down, which he was flagged for. Then Quinton Jefferson got into an argument with Jacksonville fans which resulted in some drinks thrown on him. He then tried to go into the stands and was nearly up over the railing before he was pulled down.

I think that summarizes things.

What those guys did was really classless and there should be suspensions.

However, I wouldn't have minded if Jefferson got his hands on the guy throwing shit at him. It's a bitch move to do that and hide behind security or the barricade.

I started having Malice at the Palace flashbacks when that started.

I'm not a Michael Bennett fan, but giving the guy the benefit of the doubt, it looked like he was reaching for the ball with his right hand and rolled forward. I would say it was a legit attempt to swat the ball while the Center was snapping it. Needless to say, it does not excuse anything the Seahawks did after that, including Bennett rolling into the guys legs again after the whistle.

Bennett is a piece of shit. He is also coached by a piece of shit head coach and plays for a piece of shit organization. This is all exactly in keeping with that. Don't give the man excuses. He has earned his rep.

The immediate post snap move by Bennett was ‘not what’s done’ for me, trying to get at the ball rather than anything else.

The roll afterwards was completely out of order and he deserves a big fine and suspension for that.

Been saying this all year. They have no business being 11-2 . They are not as good as they were 2 years ago. In fact is bet heavily against them next week. Tomlin hasn't figured that puzzle out with this team. It's not happening.

Miami is about one of the last teams in the NFL who I would have predicted would beat the Patriots.

If only all Patriots games could be played in Miami. Brady is 7-9 there.

I'm guessing Tom Brady's balls are deflated right about now.

Miami always seems to give us a game once a year where their pass rush looks amazing and makes me question why they aren't better vs other teams. And of course having Dwayne Allen as TE#1 instead of Gronk is a huge downgrade.

Defensively I actually think we got outschemed a little bit and took too long to adjust to the rollouts, but frankly we're playing so many guys in the front seven I've barely heard of I'm more surprised the defense was playing so well the last 6-8 weeks than surprised it gave up a lot of yards & points last night.

I dunno how to characterize the seeming sudden uptick in injury severity/rate, over just the past few weeks, but it sure seems like we're headed towards some kind of crucial event.

I'm still undecided on them. I like the retro logo, but expect to see the lighter blue. The dark blue is like a dark timeline version of the Broncos.

Agreed on both parts. Would prefer more orange in the unis, but dear god I wish them, the Bucs, Falcons & Seahawks would go back. I know they wont, but all these color schemes and uniform designs just bleed together. At least they stood out back in the day. Now I have to go yell at some clouds.

I don't know I just like the way the logo pops on the darker blue helmets. Those jerseys are awesome but I wouldn't wear them with orange pants obviously. I've never been a fan of the Broncos redesign.

I think the Broncos redesign is one of the few ones that looks good. The Seahawks redesign is an improvement too. The Falcons need to go back to the classic falcon and the red uniforms from the 80s. Or even the black version.

The Bucs new uniforms are the worst in the league by far.

I'd love it if they went back to the pumpkin days.

But even a return to the first generation pewter uniforms would bring them back from horrible to average.
