This was actually a good show, and yes, much needed...

Shady said something interesting that makes me think we have seen the limit of 13 personnel. It is hard replacing the production of Devante Adams...
 
Yeah, it helped a little but this wasn’t some isolated collapse. This was just the latest chapter in a season-long problem.


The same ugly issues keep resurfacing: special teams and defense in crunch time. And honestly, Shula’s play-calling down the stretch felt like someone mashing buttons in Madden; Cover 4, Quarters, Cover 6, over and over. He can call a good game at times, but this absolutely wasn’t one of them.


You’re up 30–14 with eight minutes left, and you somehow give up two touchdowns with two separate two-point conversions. That’s an epic failure on both coaching and execution. Then in overtime, you score a touchdown on the opening drive and still manage to let them walk right down the field for a TD and another two-point conversion. In the real world, that kind of performance gets people fired. It’s completely inexcusable.


What makes it even worse is letting Darnold play hero ball at the end of OT. You basically gift him confidence heading into a potential rematch all because Shula thought prevent defense was the move. Just laughable.


There’s plenty of blame to go around, but ultimately this lands on McVay. He’s the head guy, and as they say, shit rolls downhill. These issues have to get fixed now. If they don’t, this team will be watching the playoffs from home, and we’ll have completely wasted a historically great season from Stafford and this offense.


The one silver lining: we put 30 points in regulation on the best defense in the league. That shouldn’t be lost—but it also shouldn’t be the excuse.
 
I'm finding it hard to find anything good about the loss. We're gonna be playing on the road. If we win the first game we're almost sure to head to a freezing climate for the next.

The only silver lining I can think of is, I doubt any home team would prefer the Rams. Even in cold weather they're capable of putting up points. And I do think we can win in Seattle if they get that far.
 
A lot of dropped passes contributed to that not happening
The two Parkinson drops in the 4Q are gonna haunt me. The first one would’ve been a big play and gotten the ball out near midfield with a fresh set of downs. The second would’ve made the next play 3rd and 4 instead of 3rd and 10. Both hit him right in the hands and were absolutely brutal.

Yep and the Corum drop,Davis Allen had a couple too and the holding call on Allen which the Seahawks player flopped and the official bought it
