Ok, I guess Seattle's loss can be attributed to "un-sensational offensive play calling".
They basically played on offense, defense and ST's as they always do. The same way they have been winning is the same way they played yesterday.
They just came into a more physical team that their defense were unable to make 1 dimensional. They're used to making other teams offenses 1 dimensional and then they can get the ball back and run it, ultimately control the clock.
We ultimately controlled the clock and made running and passing plays as we needed to. As usual because of our o-line, triangle of skill players and QB.
We are now just the more physical team because of our o-line and our never give up on the play, well rested defense. Other than ST's, taking bad penalties at the wrong time and turning the ball over, we beat them at their own game. Physical, ball control at it's finest. Make plays when you need them. We did that better than them all game.
Otherwise the turnovers and bad timing penalties would have ensured them the win.
We won because they could never impose their will on us even in that very favorable environment for them. But we could impose our will, running on them. I'm not so sure either team was totally "out coached" because they caught us on ST's and found ways to get us to turn the ball over on offense and ST's.
Defensively we knew their brand of football, our offense kept us fresh and we played to the script we had to play to harness their offense from controlling the ball.
We're outright 90's esque on our o-line and that's what it's coming down too.
Pete Carroll was saying days before the game on how his current team resembles our teams of the 90's. Well, we remembered how to play that way again and are just better than them at it and it showed. We were clearly the superior team yesterday and they are still very darn good.
It's like Michael Irvin said weeks ago. When we play solid mistake free football, we will be unstoppable because of how our offense can control the game and allow our defense to stay fresh and play fast and physical.
Our ST's needs work and if Dwayne Harris can't get his fumbilitis fixed we need to go another route. Murray didn't cough it up and hopefully that's behind him. Romo needs to not give that 1-2 turnovers a game to the other team.
Otherwise we just spend the game imposing our will now. Hopefully the Free injury does not hinder our style.
