To me that was as bad a play as Springs will make and it took a perfectly executed pass and catch to do it. That throw was Hasselbeck's best all day. He was beat bya step inside but he wasn't beat enough for it to eb a catch and run and with most QBs that play has a 10% chance of working. Not trying to rationalize but you do have to consider how good a play it was.

It was, he was all over him and Branch just made a great catch. By the way, I believe Springs is older than Branch by 4 years.

Dude, Deion Branch is 29 years old, and still pretty damned fast.

No one bashes his play it's his willingness to play hurt like every other player in the league, Let's just pray he stays healthy

Glad to have Springs back.

However for next season he's too much money for the amount of playtime.
He's $7 mill and will play just over half the season.

This is one of the reasons they're giving Hall an audition.

The forward progress no-call on Betts. I know they're told not to have a quick whistle, but if you never blow the whistle, it can change games.

I agree. Betts forward progress had been stopped. 3 Seatle players hit him after wards and I was wondering why the refs had not blown the call dead. instead they allow the players to keep hitting him and lose the ball.

he still should have went down. The purpose is to run out the clock not to try and score...He wasn't down. Maybe they should have stopped it for forward progress maybe not. But eitehr way he wasn't down and it was a fumble. Protect the freaking ball.

It wouldn't be a Skins game without major heart palpatations in the last 2 minutes.

I told you, But welcome back Springs and welcome a win any win against anybody.

[SeasonTicketHolder]

i guess i'll take back by negative Springs comments.

[Paintrain]

I never, ever, ever want to see someone post that Ladell Betts should be anything more than a backup. An unreliable one at that!

Thank God Springs made that play.

[horse]

Fucking Betts that Sob this could only happen to us but fuck it it's a win.

[JLW428]

Springs bailed out Betts right there.
