The defense CAN score on a 2-point conversion. It is called a conversion safety and it is worth 1 point. However, in college the defense can take possession and advance the ball. In the NFL, once the defense takes possession on a conversion attempt, the play is over. While it is still possible for an NFL defense to score a 1 point safety, the only way they can is if they recover the ball in the other teams endzone. So the ball would have roll or be carried 100 yards backwards by the offense, and then recovered by the defense.Apology to both of you- I didn't know this.The defense can't score points on a 2pt conversion...so what do you mean?I mentioned this at the time, and none picked up on it.
When Wilson threw back across the field in a desperation try for the 2pt conversion, had GB intercepted this they would have walked into the end zone for two points and the win. It's by no means certain the pass by Wilson was the right decision at the time. It worked, but there was a lot of luck involved.

That's a fun fact. Who knew?Never has been a more fixed game. NFL did everything it could to get Seattle in the bowl.

A lot more soul-crushing losses like this and these cowards getting fired.IvanKaramazov said:You and I seem to share a brain on this. What more does it take to get teams to look at the math?Capella said:One day these nfl coaches will stop kicking field goals. Especially on the road against a favorite.
NFL has been very busy this post-season. First the Detroit/Dallas game. Then the Dallas/GB game. And then today.Never has been a more fixed game. NFL did everything it could to get Seattle in the bowl.

I think so too. Some missed calls went boths ways. Refs didn't win or lose it for either team.In all seriousness, I think this game was called very, very well. Maybe the best officiated game I've watched in a while.
Good posting...it's amazing how many people you get fired up in here. Good luck in 2 weeks...most Packer fans will be pulling for your Hawks.ImTheScientist said:Good game packers. Thought you had us.

That play really stuck out to me as a person with no horse in the race. For the life of me I will NEVER understand giving a NFL QB time forGhost Rider said:The sad thing is, he mostly coached a great game, but rushing only 3 on that 3rd and 19 was ######ed, and they played it way too soft on the last two drives in regulation.Sabertooth said:I wonder if anyone is going to interview Capers for a hc job.
while he waits for a wr to get open. Reminded me of the Eagle game many years back when Packers had them at 3rd and 25 and let them complete that one also.Mario Kart said:Refs are helping the packers. The fix is in.

Marlon Mcree.dwarfboy said:I thought back to the guy for San Diego that made a pick to seal a win for Marty Schottenheimer and LaDainian Tomlinson but instead of just going down he tried to advance the ball. Later he stated "every time I gets the rock I takes it to the house." Troy Brown begs to differ. That guy shoulda gotten down like the Green Bay guy, but the Green Bay guy shoulda tried to take the rock, well somewhere.Jobber said:Yeah that GB interception where the guy lays down instead of gaining 20+. Baffling.sporthenry said:Will anyone ever learn?dwarfboy said:Playing not to lose with over five minutes left; oops. Let's do that differently next time.
Difference being Seattle is all heart. Denver, not so much.At halftime I told my wife "It's like the super bowl, only we're on the other end of it"
so did the packer players. After game interviews they were all saying "at five minutes we thought we had this"ImTheScientist said:Good game packers. Thought you had us.
Could have been 4th down.. I'm 47 so my mind isn't what it once wasWasn't that the oft mentioned famous 4th and 26?That play really stuck out to me as a person with no horse in the race.

Yep. No killer instinct. Too many nice guys.so did the packer players. After game interviews they were all saying "at five minutes we thought we had this"I don't think it was a coaching issue - it was the packers lost their edge, their drive. they dominiated the game, and then started celebrating.ImTheScientist said:Good game packers. Thought you had us.
The seahawks decided that they still wanted to win. And the Packers had not stepped on their throat, gone for the kill on offense.
Good for the seahawks.
Thanks, was the toughest game all year. Your d played legit!Good posting...it's amazing how many people you get fired up in here. Good luck in 2 weeks...most Packer fans will be pulling for your Hawks.ImTheScientist said:Good game packers. Thought you had us.
It doesn't matter. We can point to several instances of plays that were like that, but in the end it doesn't matter. They had the game in the bag but instead tried to play safe and conservative and went into a shell.On that INT with 5 minutes left, the Packers DB went down pretty quickly, like the game was over, and I can't help but wonder how deep he could have returned it. That is a play no one will talk about, but they could have gotten another 3 with a decent return on that.
I accept you apology for doubting the hawks bro.It doesn't matter. We can point to several instances of plays that were like that, but in the end it doesn't matter.

Same crap every year: make playoffs - DEF collapses. Ughh.

Did anyone even do that? I thought that was a Seahawks fan SAYING GB fans were doing that and then the rest of the Seahawks fans attacked GB fans for saying that based upon what that first Seahawks fan said.It's weird how nobody's pimping Lacy as Lynch's equal anymore
Exactly what I was saying ... Guy went down as if there was 30 seconds left in the game.On that INT with 5 minutes left, the Packers DB went down pretty quickly, like the game was over, and I can't help but wonder how deep he could have returned it. That is a play no one will talk about, but they could have gotten another 3 with a decent return on that.
yeahhhhhhhhhhh!Hawks!Sea!
One guy did, and then we jumped on it as laughable. Then a lot of packer fans got annoyed because they didn't think it was that laughable. I'm pretty sure I was involved somewhere.Did anyone even do that?

Sux because Seahawks were horrible and did not deserve to win that game but the pack was afraid to put it away.
