Seahawks Best Plays of the Game
JOSH BROWN. Need I say more? (And yes, this is a repeat from last week!)
The sack by Russell Davis! Who?! Yes, Russell Davis. There's a name we haven't heard often this season despite him playing in 8 games thus far!
Hasselbeck blocking for Shaun! I'm not sure it's the smartest thing I've ever seen but it says so much for Hasselbeck's desire to win the game!!! That knocks my socks off!
The tipped pass that was intercepted by Babineaux and led to a field goal!

Worst Moments in the Game
Our sluggish start. We looked half-frozen, half-asleep in the first half of the game. We are fortunate that Denver came out with a new QB and was unable to put points on the board.
3 and out. 3 and out. 3 and out. 3 and out. That was some boring football to start the quarter.

Improvement over Last Week
Special teams! How about those 2 punts downed at the 2 yard line! And of course, Josh Brown's foot!
How about the tackle by Josh Brown?
AND how about the pooch punt that Denver fumbled and recovered?! Oh, that was fun!

Surprise of the Game
Ernster, Denver's punter, forgot to put his helmet on! He went on to the field to kick the ball, lined up, ran to the sidelines, grabbed his helmet, ran back out onto the field and kicked the ball!!! Very funny!
The touchdown by Darryl Tapp when Cutler stepped back to pass, got flustered by pressure, threw as he was being tackled, was caught by Tapp and was run into the end zone! Up to that point, I was worried we weren't going to get a score today!
The dropped pass by Rod Smith, recovered by Peterson after a Trufant hit. You don't see Rod Smith drop many.
The fake punt by Elam to set Denver up for a field goal. Very weird, very risky. Fun, but a bit scary, especially since Elam appears to have come up with a bad hamstring after that stunt.
Derek Rackley downed a punt at the 2 yard line. Derek who?!? Is he a Seahawk?!?!?

Opponent's Best Play of the Game
The 71 yard touchdown play just after we'd gone up by 7 points. We had the momentum and they stole it away from us.
Champ Bailey's interception in the end zone also ties for being the best play by our opponent.
How about all the Christmas decorations in Denver? That could possibly be the most beautifully decorated holiday display I've ever seen. Hats off to Denver!

Best Commercial
The Bud Light commercial where the pet shop guy hitches all the animals (hamsters included!) to a sleigh so he can get through the snow to his beer!

Most Annoying Commercial
The GMC Truck commercial where we have x-ray vision to see the mechanics of the truck in square boxes. Points for being artsy. But it's boring and we had to see it a lot.

What's Up With That?
Um, well, the bad call for holding that kept a dead drive alive for the Seahawks. I didn't see holding, and if I were a Denver fan, I'd be livid.
Tom Nalen. Did you see his photo on the screen? Dude! Get a brush! Better yet, get a hairdresser! He's been in the NFL since 1994. He's taken team pics before! Someone help this man before it's too late! :-)

Good luck to...
Robbie Tobeck who wasn't able to play today.
Bobby Engram who is still sidelined with a thyroid problem.
Al Wilson who was carted off the field with a neck injury. May it be nothing more than an inconvenience.

Best News During the Game
My daughter got moved out of her dorm today! What a relief that is! Now if we can just get the paperwork finalized and BE DONE WITH IT! (Anyone who knows the drama we've been through will appreciate this!)
