Speaking of refs, how about Craig Wrolstad's crew getting down on their knees and blowing Fivehead today? I especially liked when one of the refs initially reached for his flag before remembering who the league office wanted to win.
the roughing the passer call was horrible, but lets not act like SF was really moving the ball anyway

no doubt, that's why i gave their team some props. Still, you simply don't make terrible calls like that when the game can go either way, but Hochulli is a s my lawyer and done this before. Kaepernick was ing garbage in the second half. That final play from him summed it all up.
would be really impressive if they actually win out.. last 6 games of the season being against Arizona, @ San Fran, @ Philly, San Fran, @ Arizona, and St. Louis
the Rams have given them trouble going back to last year, but luckily they get them at home
Ready to get your pushed in by a third-stringer?![]()

My only hope in this game is last year Palmer threw 4 interceptions in Seattle and Arizona still won. Defense needs to play the game of their life and offense can't get sloppy with the ball.
I definitely think it'll be another defensive battle, and a lot of pressure will be on Special Teams on both sides to not commit turnovers. Turnovers will likely tell the tale. We haven't shown the ability to get any push on Arizona's defensive line, so hopefully Russell can pull some plays out of his ass. But even if the run isn't producing anything we still have to commit to it. Penalties will likely also play a major role, and if we continue on at our current clip for next week, we could find ourselves in a world of trouble.
Sometimes having an unknown in can be a good thing. Not much tape to review so who knows what's possible. And the less finesse approach of Kerwynn Williams (When compared to Ellington) may be better suited for this division. Long story short, anything is possible with the Cardinals, and we have to be on our "A" game to come out of Arizona with a win.
The run game is huge for Arizona. A healthy Taylor and Williams plus Cooper up front and maybe, just maybe, with an amped up defense and home field, Arizona has a chance.
Worst case, they made the playoffs in a season when nobody would have predicted it.
But this team deserves more, so they better rise up and take it.
It'd be nice to get some lucky bounces to offset the bad breaks.
We didn't cause the bad breaks so we don't deserve any unlucky bounces. If it's anybody that deserves unlucky bounces as it pertains to the Cardinals it's the Rams.
If we play a clean game and take care of the ball, we should be in a good position late in the game. I could see us throwing all kinds of junk at Lindley, but I'd rather us not do too much and stick to who we are. Last thing we need are surprise plays for big chunks. And with the way Arians likes to open it up no matter who's at QB, we have to be prepared for that. Basically, don't get cute on either side of the ball.
Spur-Addict So, if we win out and we have a 3-way tie between the winner of the GB/DET game and Dallas we get the 1st seed? But if its only the Cowboys and us we lose the #1st seed? That's pretty crazy but i'll take it after the sluggish start we got off to. Why not us?
Cards first lied about Stanton saying it was a sprained knee and would miss no time. Any fool knew it was lie, but, it didn't stop Bruce from stating it. Now we find out the truth, it's torn. They still insist on calling it a "sprained knee, which is the same as a tear." Until Stanton went down they also insisted on calling Logan Thomas their backup instead of Lindley. Now, they've promoted Lindley.
I hope the Seahawks break their in' hole.
I just want to get in, that's all I'm worried about.
Here are the tie breaker procedures though: http://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakingprocedures
^Just don't come here next Sunday nite and lay a in' egg. Don't do it.
I know. I think we're up to a 98% of making it in...but it would be nice to have a 1st round bye again. Give us a chance to rest since we've been at it since Week 4. So we have a lot to play for in the last two games. I don't think we'll lay an egg with how motivated the team looks and I think they'll come out ready to compete the Seahawk way. That defense has played better in the last 4 games than at any point of last year's regular season campaign. I hope they keep the focus and protect RW a little bit better. Either way, it feels semi-good to eliminate the 49ers because now I don't have to hear about it all day from the 49er fans I encounter at work and on Facebook. We got the last laugh!
Okung once again will be out for some time. Only two weeks left, each game is pivotal. Unger still out, allegedly he'll be back next game, we'll see. But we definitively will need to bolster this line come draft/offseason as the key components cannot stay healthy. So with that in mind, Russell's ability to allude will once again be at high demand, especially against these monster defenses. Quite frankly, I am a bit concerned with two of the best defensive lines in football upcoming.
But you're right, we have A LOT to play for in these last weeks, hopefully we can make the most of it. And at least a first round bye would be nice with what we've had to go through this season schedule wise. Although they are on a roll, and sometimes you want to let-it-ride as they say.
Yeah man, that week off could be a momentum killer. These next two weeks are not gimmes in the sense of the word. Arizona will be a tough out even if Neil Lomax was quarterbacking. That D is tough. The Rams always seem to play us tough but we will be in the friendly confines of Clink with so much to play for. Having the NFC come to us was probably the most important factor in last year's championship run. Can't wait til Sunday though...that's going to be a fisticuff.
Seeing as how we hadn't done it before, it was absolutely pivotal. But the way they look right now, the unity and certainty they have as a unit, I think they could go anywhere and win. Naturally you'd want to be in the confines of the best home field advantage in the league, but if we have to go out on the road, I think we could nab a win or two.
Aren't the Seahawks guaranteed #1 seed in the NFC if they win out? em.
You had the chalice. But your team dropped the ball in Orchard Park, N.Y. and Kyle Orton. Not our fault.
Looks like you got your wish.
