Teams are going to have to test Sherman. Did he really ask Rodgers was he avoiding him and Rodgers said yep? Find that hard to believe.

9ers by double digits, poor Dallas.
 
I can't be the only that thinks its weird how the packers are always injured, every team has them but every year single half that team is on ir.
 
also, something that annoyed the beejesus out of my last night..

every time the seahawks motioned harvin into the backfield and ran that little sweep play that was picking up about 10 yards or so EVERY TIME..

the packers run a 3-4.. so after the 1st time that they do it, the OLBs should be instructed that they have to hold the edge and whatever DB that had the initial coverage responsibility of covering harvin then moves back into coverage to handle the responsibility of that OLB
 
 
Pete Carroll did cop to hatching the play. “We’ll go anywhere to find a play,” the Seattle coach said afterward. “And that one—uh, Muschamp at Florida, no … Auburn. They ran it. Give Gus Malzahn credit. That’s a great play. I kept telling them [the offensive staff and players] this summer, ‘It’ll work, it’ll work.’ But it didn’t work all summer.”

The reasons Carroll and Bevell liked the play when they watched Auburn run it last year against Alabama is simple. The read-option assumes  the running back or the quarterback will run the ball—the running back if the quarterback sees a hole when he puts the ball in the back’s gut, or the quarterback if he sees traffic and knows he (the quarterback) needs to tuck it down and run. But what if the quarterback, about to get pummeled, pulled it down and just flipped it to the nearest receiver?

“That was a great read by Russell,” said Lockette. “He sees the corner coming up, and so he knows I’m free. It all happens fast, so he’s got to read the play in a split-second.”

“We practiced it a little,” said Bevell. “But it came from college tape. We just thought it fit another dimension off the zone read and could enhance the play. We’re committed to find the best plays for the players we have, and that certainly looked like it fit our players.”

I wonder if NFL refs are going to let teams get away with this like they do in college.  It should have been a penalty.  In the NFL blockers can not get more than one yard down the field during a pass, and in college its three.  The league is probably going to get a lot of calls from defensive coaches for that play

If the QB keeps the ball isn't it technically a PA and the receivers can run wherever?
