I hope MM took notes and will go back to using Cobb like Seattle used Harvin.

Thursday night wasn't #12's best night but that defense can make Peyton Manning and Drew Brees look like Christian Ponder. I have no clue why he didn't run for the first down when he had the opportunity. It is apparent that you are no fan of Rodgers or MM so I'll just end my post here.
In the Seahawks scheme Sherman only plays one side of the field. A lot of the reason people are critical of him being the #1 CB in the NFL is because he may "shut down" one side of the field, but he's doing that against #2/3 guys. Unlike, say, Revis Island where he blankets the #1 almost all game.

It made the job way too easy for the defense as their single high safety could just start rolling over to one side of the field.
