Sad to say, I caught most of last night's craptacular football game between the Vikings and Seahawks. The lack of offence, bad play calling on both sides, and blind as shit referees made for a terrible game for the fan.
Here's why.
Who called the plays, Stevie Wonder? Both the Vikings and Seahawks suffered from this the whole game, with the Vikings call to go for it on 4th and Goal in the second half being as bone-headed as you can get. It's 6-0 for the opposition at that point, and instead of kicking three and halfing the score, you try to run the ball? On fourth down? Zimmer is an idiot for letting that happen. Any sane coach takes the three, then has their defence step up to the plate.
Seahawks = posers. The Seahawks aren't really good, it's just that the Vikings are worse. Kirk Cousins is inconsistent, and their defence is spotty as best. Russell Wilson was awful, and anyone watching the game saw this. I said several years back that Wilson is a one-and-done quarterback, and guess what? I'm still right. I'm not buying into the hype with this guy, and never will.
Officiating - it only gets worse! From a plethora of non-calls, to a pass interference call that went against Minnesota (even though the replay clearly showed hand slapping, and no grabbing or holding of any kind), the officiating in the NFL gets collectively worse every week. Blind as shit refs and their crews never seem to be held accountable, nor do the rule makers at the NFL itself. The NFL used to be about letting the players play. Now, we get penalty flags almost every play, and most of them are complete stupidity.
So yeah, the game was a dud.
