Anybody wanna make a bet?

Last week vs the Saints, there was at least 3 bad calls the hurt the Seahawks.
The NFL issued a statement admitting they messed up.
We didn't hear much, if anything about it.

Last night vs the Bills, there was 3 bad/ strange calls that went in the Seahawks favor.

I say they will still be talking about last nights calls next Sunday on all the pregame shows.

Anybody wanna bet?

Keep in mind, we are still hearing them talk about the Sherman/ Jones play from the Falcons game.

Officiating has been bad this year, we've been hurt by it and we've been helped by it.

My beef is in how it's all reported on.
Guess I'll just embrace the hate.

It's all about context.

Saints game was an early 1pm start game that I'm sure few people watched. Our calls against us happened during a non crucial point in the game

Bills game was a prime time Monday night game that I'm sure quite a bit of people watched. The Sherman play happened directly before halftime altering the course of the game.

Ofcourse this is going to be more covered. There's no conspiracy.

Never said I think there is a conspiracy.

Was trying to highlight the discrepancy in how things were, and will be reported.
You can explain it away by saying "prime time vs early game ",if you want but the difference is still there.

The Sherman/ jones call was mentioned last night a couple of times.
Did you hear them mention any other calls to highlight their point?
I did, I heard the "fail Mary" vs GB, and the "batted ball" vs Lions both mentioned.

Not saying "conspiracy", saying discrepancy.

I'm completely with you on this. There's a discrepancy with how the media consistently takes a negative narrative with Seattle in terms of penalties and "getting the breaks" and beats it into the ground. I don't know if it's just that we've become the team people love to hate or if it's because certain players have been outspoken in the past or what it is exactly But, there certainly is a discrepancy in the angle that is taken when discussing the Seahawks nationally.
