Eventually the Seahawks could only make it so far on lucky pass plays making up for inferior play. The oddity is just as much that it lasted that long, as that it ended so dramatically.
People are saying ‘ride the horse you rode in on’ ... well, for the last 2 games, the horse they rode was lucky pass plays.
I wonder if Pete, after the Hail Mary 2 point conversion 2 weeks ago, Matthews catching fire, the lucky bounce/catch a few plays before, the gamble just before half time that paid off, was feeling a bit prideful - as if the Passing Gods were on his side - or that he were a passing genius, and he mistook those gods as himself.
Pride goeth ... and all that.
Well seems to me then you’re saying that the Patriots aren’t that good either since they barely beat us...in fact I think we beat us.
There was luck the other way too....tripping not being called on the Pats, etc.
