Personally, I give the guy a break. He’s a Stanford grad who stuck around an extra year to work on an MBA. They interviewed him moments after the biggest game of his life and he made the biggest play of his life. He was still in game mode, where they were in a heated, trash talking battle.

Stick a microphone in a lot of guys..especially defensive players...while they are in game mode, they would be intense, too.

Was it good to do..no...he should have waited or taken a second to calm down.

This reminds me of the Bart Scott interview a few years ago during the playoffs where he was still clearly in game mode. He didn’t stoop so low to criticize his opposition like this one, but he was mentally still in the game in intensity and cadence like this.

I can see that I suppose. After re-thinking it a bit, it was pretty close to the end of the game. I would give a little more if he hadn't gone after crab tree or started the choking antics that drew the flag at the end. Still, he flag should have embarrassed him into control. They also had to run over a minute off the clock. He has some time to wind down.

His undergrad degree? Communications. LOL!

I have much less of a problem with his interview than I do with his on-field actions and even more of a problem with Seahawks’ fans pelting NaVorro Bowman with food as he was being carried from the field and the Seahawks’ coach being a 9/11 Truther and a cheater while he was in he college ranks.
