Richardson got away with a blatant face mask, why are we trying to rationalize this any other way?

:lol:

^^^^^^^
I know your comment was made in jest but the whole thing is irritating because no one on TV said jack about this one.

I get that. And it was a blown call. Just like the touchdown was.

Would it have changed anything if the penalties offset and we kicked a FG? Of course not. But I don't understand why any Seahawks fan can't be like "yep, got away with one there"

The issue isn't that we won't admit getting away with one but rather the constant coverage and emphasis whenever we do get away with one vs little to no coverage for what seems like every other team.

Fact, when Seattle plays, their opponents are called for the least amount of penalties compared to any other team 2 of the last 3 years. The media loves pointing out when Seattle gets the benefit of a call but the fact is their opponents when playing Seattle are more or less the ones receiving the benefit.
