Woody, the crowd in Seattle calls themselves the 12th man. I believe dy was being facetious

Ohh no .... not facetious humor...HUMOR.

[woodbuck27]

Now we're getting a game of it. The Saints need to score now with the wind.

[woodbuck27]

Nope ..The Seattle 'D' again has the answer,

We can 'only' imagine having such a defense.

[woodbuck27]

Even Sean Peyton and Drew Brees don't want to go down 20 - Zip ! @ the HALF.

[woodbuck27]

There's Percy Harvin for 16 yards.

A rare Harvin sighting on the Play-By-Play sheet.

New Orleans was too conservative with their early playcalls. They need to get Graham involved.

Saints defense is doing the best they can, but their offense is hanging them out to dry.

[Striker]

There's no way Harvin finishes this game at this rate.

There's no way Harvin finishes this game at this rate.

the team had to threaten to IR him just to get him to practice

the guy doesn't want to be out there, he got his money, he's the kind of guy who will do everything in his power to not have to play again

I wonder if John Lynch would want to play for the Packers next year.

[denverYooper]

There's no way Harvin finishes this game at this rate.

Eh. He's only on his second concussion of the game.

What is this "Safety position" the announcers speak of? Is that a new thing?

I think it has something to do with Harvin going into a fetal position to make sure he doesn't get killed.

Well, Rob Ryan doesn't seem to coordinate run defense better than Capers.

Drew Brees doesn't seem to like to throw in wet weather. Odd, for someone having gone to school at Purdue. He's been terrible with gloves, just go without.

Gotta give Lynch some credit. Guy is a true beast. Saints at least are tackling.

[Guiness]

Good game to watch. Some observations...

• Saints need to give up on the passing game. The rain is just too bad, all they're doing it giving away downs by trying to air it out. I think Brees ego is the problem here, he's saying 'I can throw it dammit'
• Chippy, chippy, chippy game. The altercation between Kearse and an NO player (Lewis?) should have resulted in penalties, no idea why the refs ignored it. Not shoving matches, but guys taking shots at each other, seen a few WRs get shoved back to the ground after they get up
• As expected, refs letting DBs mug the WR...except for a call giving the Hawks first on goal after a 3rd down incompletion!!! Lewis didn't deserve that.
• Arm tackling Lynch is a stupid idea
• Don't know why, but I don't like Harvin. I was calling for the Saints DB to pile on in the endzone, he did, and Harvin needed help to get off the field. I cheered, and I really don't do that.
