Regarding Seattle's 2-point conversion

I was just thinking about it. Seattle is up 20-19. Wilson throws up a prayer that could have easily been intercepted and run back for (I believe) 2 points to GB. Had that happened, Wilson may have ended up the goat.

I don't usually think in hypotheticals, but this one would have been something.

Interception! That's game! But nope, packers D really blew it on that one. I think that was the game changer. That and forgetting that Lynch is a fracking BEAST. he ran all over them.

. . . was the pass where somehow everybody on D let a 4.6 RB get behind the WHOLE DEFENSE!

He comes from 6 yards behind scrimmage, runs a 15 to 20 yard pattern and is behind everyone.

It's not like the guy is Usain Bolt. He's big and strong and shifty, but not just flat blazing and with a 6 yard disadvantage he gets behind everyone.

Brain cramp from the Packers' D.

Either the 2-pt try is good, or not.
