We hit the 1000 yard mark on the season vs. the Giants. A milestone indeed. In penalty yardage. (1005 to be exact)
If one thing is going to hold us down this playoff run its penalties. I'm not trying to be negative, just looking at what has happened all year long with our penalties its our key players that are the ones getting called.
Michael Bennett logged his 9th penalty called on him for a total of 64 yards on the season. That puts him in 4th place in yardage right behind Browner (91) Sherman (86) and Russell Wilson (65)
While I have nothing to compare it to of what other teams average or are experiencing, it just seems like we are getting flagged/flogged every other down. It comes with being a physical team, and we've had our share of questionable calls go in our favor but if we make it to the Super Bowl and lay a 10-12 penalty game, everyone will be blaming the refs.
Just thought i'd toss this out there for discussion. I'm not a hater, just worried the penalty game is going to kill us when we make our long run.
