Atl defense just got dominated on the opening drive. Lynch 1 yd run.
Master, told my wife a bit ago, if Baltimore holds up for the win, Atlanta has SUCH a great chance to put this away vs. Seattle and I have a bad feeling it'll be the day the Seahawks show up.

It would be hard for the Saints to win the division but I don't think a win today ends the race. They can still catch up to Atl and beat them in divisional record tiebreaker. A loss today really affects the #1 seed chances, I was looking today if they lose 2 out of 3, they seem to be able to lose a lot of tiebreakers if others win out.
Agreed, but with 2 games up on them, and having Carolina at home to wrap up the season, they win today and I'd bet almost anything they get a bye and home field advantage even with a loss to Saints next week. They will beat Carolina at home. Just need a win today.

Awful spot on the Ryan slide, by about a yard and a half. best to follow it up with another one. Carroll challenges but he should've challenged the first time. Oddly enough, if he wins this challenge then it ends up better for the Hawks with a turnover on downs. Still, Carroll has had a bad go at challenging at bad times so I'd like to see him challenge better regardless of how this turns out.
eta: challenge upheld, more bad challenges (or lack of) by Pete.

Wow the Seahawks got jobbed on that spot and replay

Spot challenges like that are almost always a wasted challenge and timeout. Too hard to ever switch them.

Agreed, the time to challenge was the terrible spot on 3rd down.

They've only needed inches both times.Anyone else's feed keep going in and out? we've got bad weather here in L.A. with rain going sideways but not losing signal on the other TV.

3 yd TD pass to Snelling. Sea made Atl earn every yard on the drive.

If the O doesn't chew up the clock some then that won't last long.

Snelling drilled two plays in a row to fumble but luckily two Falcons WRs recover. Snelling down.

Good stand for the Hawks D. Offense needs to keep Falcons O off the field for the rest of the half.

White drop forces a field goal. Wacky series. Falcons lucky to get 3 because they fumbled twice but probably should have scored a TD after that if not for the self inflicted wound of holding.

WTF are they calling? Gonna go 3 and out taking about 20 seconds off the clock. Definitely do NOT try runnign the ball after the success in the first drive, that would be a terrible idea.
It is Pete though....

No idea what Ryan thought he saw there, maybe didn't see him at all. Easy INT

Big Play Babs! One of the best nickel backs in Seattle history!

Atl went three straight passes too.It is Pete though....

Nice stop by the defense. Hopefully Atl now ends the half with a score and no time and then do something with the 2nd half kick.

He's got lots of learning to do as he adjusts to the NFL level and I'm fine with that. I'm just venting.

When you have Ryan, Gonzales and White it's a much better route than Hass, Williams and Obumanumanuau.Atl went three straight passes too.

Depends when you do it I think. That close to half, if you pass 3 times and then give the ball up (punt or TO) and get the ball back for a two minute offense like they did, you are passing possibly 15 or so straight plays. When there is 4.5 minutes left and you are an offense hoping to take it all off, I don't see why you don't rush on 1st or 2nd. Get the clock moving and likely not stuck with a 3rd and 10.When you have Ryan, Gonzales and White it's a much better route than Hass, Williams and Obumanumanuau.Atl went three straight passes too.It is Pete though....

Well that is not a good way to start the 2nd half.

Takes skill to run a 2.5 yard pattern on 3rd and 3.
lol.. was just thinking that. Always wondered if the route calls for them to turn in front of the defender, if even short or not.Man, Seattle is playing VERY good though. I was hoping they would lay down! ;p

What a worthless game from a fantasy perspective. All clock, nothing

YES! Fumble sack in the end zone for the TD! Poor choice not to toss that somewhere, he seen the rush.

I really wasn't thinking they were bad, just a few off calls. Now they're bad. No one near Hass and the defender and they miss a blatant shot to the face?!

This is what happens when you don't play smart. Get down and then Hass tries too hard which almost always leads to INTs. Combined with more bad playcalling (naked boot in the EZ?!) and a tight game turns into a rout.
Really hating the refs more. Gonzales took out a D on the Jeknis (Jennings?) TD with no call. Facemask called when it happens to Ryan but not to Hass. Bad spots. Falcons are the only one of the three "teams" out there playing at a professional level.
