lol...althought you could also say Alexander who?? :( Just hope he's healthy for next week.

It would be more like "Shaun who?" if I am not mistaken.

cuz Shaun and Alexander are different people? What is your point?

He said Clinton who?

So it would be Shaun who because its his first name.

Hes just nitpicking

Seems the only way the Skins are going to win now is if they're doing it on their Xbox360!! ;)

(edit: don't feel bad.......my "home" team [team closest to my home town, geographically] is the Buffalo Bills!! :eek: )

I didn't see that either, but both of the anouncers did, I think it was the interference on Tatupu before the safety got there.

2. Intentional grounding my ass! The wideout was 5 yards away from the ball when he slipped trying to come back those 5 yards. You could even see the reciever with the camera zoomed in.

Bullshit, there was 2 seahawks in the vicinity and a beloved patriot 6 yards deep and running up...not slipped and not 5 yards

3. What illegal formation!? They had a Tackle on a Tackle. They had Cooley against a corner. They had moss against another corner. Everyone seems to be in the right place to me!

don't know about that, but I do not know all of the rules for illegal formation calls

4. What happened to holding. Are they suddenly allowed to do that. Chris Samuels going for a sack coming in from behind. The guy has his arms wrapped around him and is dragging him down. That among many other holding calls.

don't remember that one, I just recall the same thing as you're describing against the skins that they did call. holding happens every other down, it's when they call it that counts and it wasn't unbalanced for the game so moot point

Piss poor calls on the refs part. The skins really should have overcome this. They should also have capitalized on the 3 turnovers they got. The skins could have won this game, they did it to themselves (along with a lot of help from the refs).

Yup on #1. He had a push off on Tatupu.

/agree on #2. Could the Skin's have challenged on that? If yes, why didn't they??

Unfortunately i dont believe ANY penalties can be challeneged.

One thing that i was happy to see was the Gibbs was being much more agressive in his playcalls. I would have preferred to see more shots downfield, but going for it on fourth down and running a trick play here and there, is much better than what they were doing.

I think the Redskins NEED to get a good quaterback. They have a First Round draft choice in Jason Campbell. He can not only throw but he can run. Now is the time to try and start getting him involved. Brunnell is a class act on and off the field, hes an awesome quarterback, but i think it just isn't working. It seems like everything is forced on offense, nothing really seems to flow (except of course my good friend Mr. Moss)

If anyone thinks the skins could have won this game, they must have been watching a different game than I was. Skins got three gift turnovers, Seattle got none, Seattle lost its MVP running back, and still won the game.

Skins could have won it with a offensive transplant from Indy maybe, but that is about it.

Brunells throw was clearly not towards any receiver, when he was called for grounding.

And the offensive pass interference was completely moot, as it was fourth down anyways. There should have been no call at all, but it was declined anyways. To challenge the call would have been a completely pointless waste of time, as even if overturned, it would have meant exactly nothing.
