01:10:14 – CINCINNATI BENGALS @ HOUSTON TEXANS

LET’S SHOW YOU THE HIGHLIGHTS HERE.  AS YOU MENTIONED, T.J. YATES LAST YEAR SO THAT MEANT MATT SCHAUB’S FIRST EVER PLAYOFF START.  ANDY DALTON, 2 YRS. IN THE LEAGUE, 2 PLAYOFF GAMES.  IT’S BEEN 22 YRS. SINCE THE BENGALS HAVE WON A PLAYOFF GAME THOUGH AND JJ WATT WANTS TO MAKE IT 23.  WE’VE SEEN THIS ALL AFTERNOON GUYS.  THAT BENGALS OFF. LINE STRUGGLED THE LAST MONTH OF THE SEASON.  THEY GAVE UP 19 SACKS THE LAST 4 WKS. AND DALTON WAS UNDER PRESSURE ALL AFTERNOON LONG.  JUST 1 F.G. IN THE 1^ST QUARTER BETWEEN THESE 2 TEAMS.  3-NOTHING HOUSTON WHEN THEY GET IT DOWN INTO THE RED ZONE AGAIN.  3^RD & 8 AND THEY THROW FOR ABOUT 6 YDS.  YEA, THEY REALLY STRUGGLE IN THE RED ZONE SCOTT, AND KICKING F.G.’S.  THAT’S WHAT KEPT THE BENGALS IN THIS GAME.  THE BENGALS WERE HANGING AROUND HERE.  AN INTERCEPTION OR SO IT APPEARED BY KAREEM JACKSON AFTER A COUPLE OF SHANE GRAHAM F.G.’S PUT THE TEXANS UP 6-0.  BUT TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT IT TOM.  YEA, THAT BALL WAS NEVER IN CONTROL.  KAREEM JACKSON NEVER HAD CONTROL OF IT.  ANDY DALTON WAS INACCURATE TODAY ESPECIALLY ON THE DEEP BALL AS YOU’LL SEE AS THESE HIGHLIGHTS CONTINUE TO ROLL ON.  MINUS 6 PASSING YDS. IN THE FIRST HALF.  NO, NOT GOOD AT ALL.  BUT HERE’S WHY THEY’RE HANGING AROUND BECAUSE THE DEFENSE MAKES A PLAY FOR CINCY.  THAT WAS THE BIGGEST PLAY OF THE GAME REALLY, AND THAT PUT THE BENGALS BACK IN CHANCE.  THEY COULDN’T CAPITALIZE ON IT, TOM.  THEY COULDN’T REALLY DO ANYTHING.  LEON PAUL INTERCEPTS SCHAUB AND TAKES IT BACK.  YEA, SCHAUB WAS LATE TO DELIVER THAT FOOTBALL.  LEON HALL, A VETERAN.  WE SAW THIS A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.  HE DID THE SAME THING AGAINST THE PITTS. STEELERS BUT THAT CERTAINLY GAVE THE BENGALS A LITTLE BIT OF LIFE.  THE TEXANS ARE COMPLETELY OUTPLAYING CINCY AND, YET, THE BENGALS WERE UP BY A POINT.  SO, CALM DOWN ON THE HOUSTON SIDELINE.  ARIAN FOSTER.. WHAT HAPPENED TO RAY MALALUGA.  HELLO.  WHERE’D HE GO?  ROUGH 1^ST HALF.  ROUGH GAME FOR RAY MALALUGA.  BUT THE OFF. LINE AND FOSTER HAD BEEN DOING IT ALL YEAR LONG.  STARTED GETTING IT GOING HERE.  YEA, THE TEXANS OFFENSE MADE A LIVING ON THE GROUND AND THROUGH THE AIR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD.  IT WAS DOWN TO THE BENGALS 24.  ANDRE JOHNSON THOUGH JUST CAN’T COME UP WITH THIS MATT SCHAUB PASS.  HERE, MATT KNOWS MISSED OPPORTUNITY.  IF THE TEXANS ARE GOING TO ADVANCE DEEP INTO THE AFC POSTSEASON, PLAYS LIKE THAT HAVE TO BE MADE.  SOMEONE STOP ME IF YOU HEARD THIS ONE BEFORE.  ANOTHER SHANE GRAHAM F.G. AND IT WAS 9-7.  BUT HOUSTON HAD THE LEAD AND LET THEIR DEFENSE TRY AND MAKE SOME PLAYS.  DALTON SCRAMBLES.  THROWS BACK ACROSS HIS BODY AND A NICE KNOCKDOWN RIGHT THERE BY BRANDON HARRIS.  ONCE AGAIN THE COMMON THEME WAS THE PRESSURE THAT WAS APPLIED TO ANDY DALTON.  SO THEY HAD TO PUNT AND THEY DO, AND ON THE PUNT YOU CAN SEE THAT’S INTERFERENCE THERE.  INTERFERING WITH THE MAN’S RIGHT TO CATCH THE FOOTBALL.  SO A 15 YD. PENALTY PUTS IT INTO CINCY TERRITORY AND THEY TAKE A SHOT TO ANDRE JOHNSON.  THAT’S INCOMPLETE WHEN YOU SAW A FLAG COME INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN IT WAS A ROUTE OVER THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD THAT THEY GET CALLED FOR DEF. HOLDING AND IT EXTENDS THE DRIVE.  JUST HAND IT TO FOSTER.  HE PLOWS IN.  THE LEAD, FINALLY.  YEA, EXACTLY.  THAT WAS YOUR ONE OFF. TD. IN THIS ENTIRE FOOTBALL GAME.  ANDY DALTON THOUGH STILL WITHIN A COUPLE OF SCORES HERE.  THEY TAKE A SHOT AND HIT THIS ONE.  YEA, THIS WAS BASICALLY THE BIGGEST PLAY TODAY FOR THE CINCY  BENGALS.  THE CORE BACKS FOR THE TEXANS WERE JUMPING ROUTES ALL DAY LONG AND ANDY JUST DIDN’T HAVE TIME TO THROW THE FOOTBALL.  HERE WAS ONE OF YOUR CLOSEST CALLS OF THE DAY.  RULED AN INCOMPLETE PASS AS CONNOR BARWIN KNOCKS THE BALL LOOSE.  WHAT’D YOU THINK SHAWN?  WELL IT LOOKED LIKE AT FIRST IT WAS GOING TO BE RULED A FUMBLE BUT WHEN YOU SEE THE ARM COMING THROUGH AND THE BALL HEADING TOWARDS THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE USUALLY INDICATES AN INCOMPLETE PASS.  IT WAS A COACH’S CHALLENGE.  THEY DID NOT OVERTURN THE CALL.  CINCY MAINTAINED POSSESSION THERE AND THAT JUST LET JJ WATT COME IN AND DO IT KENDE MATUMBO STYLE RIGHT THERE.  SO DALTON GETS IT BACK AND THEN WHAT HAPPENED HERE, TOM?  THIS WAS INTERESTING BECAUSE IT JUST LOOKED AS IF A.J. GREEN WASN’T ON THE SAME PAGE, AND HE STOPPED RUNNING AND OBVIOUSLY, AGAIN, JOSEPH IS STARING AT THE QB THE WHOLE TIME.  JOSEPH RAN A BETTER ROUTE THAN A.J. GREEN.  TOM WADDLE MAKES THAT CATCH.    DIDN’T EVEN PUT HIS HANDS OUT THERE, A.J. GREEN, ON THAT ONE.  TOM WADDLE WOULD’VE NEVER GOTTEN OFF THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.  JONATHAN JOSEPH WITH THE INTERCEPTION THERE.  SO, 4^TH QUARTER WE GO.  IT’S STILL A BALL GAME AT THIS POINT IF CINCY CAN GET IT TO 1 POSSESSION.  THAT’S GOOD HARD RUNNING RIGHT THERE.  THEY’RE 4^TH & 1 AND GET THE 1ST DOWN THERE WITH… GIVE CREDIT TO THAT O-LINE RIGHT THERE BECAUSE THAT’S A TOUGH DEFENSE TO DO THAT AGAINST.  SO THE DRIVE IS EXTENDED.  PLENTY OF TIME ON THE CLOCK.  TAKE A SHOT AND…THAT BALL CANNOT HANG LIKE THAT.  I MEAN ANDY DALTON HAD THIS TROUBLE ALL DAY LONG.  GREAT PLAY BY JONATHAN JOSEPH ONCE AGAIN.  ABLE TO KNOCK THE FOOTBALL AWAY BUT THAT BALL JUST CAN’T STAY IN THE AIR THAT LONG.  JACKSON IN ON THE PLAY THERE AS WELL.  ENSUING TEXANS DRIVE AFTER THERE F.G., MADE IT A 6 PT. GAME.  SCHAUB TO DEVEER POSEY FOR 19 YDS. BUT THEY CALL PASS INTERFERENCE ON THE OFFENSE HERE.  SO THE TEXANS WOULD HAVE TO PUNT.  HERE YOU GO.  A TD. CAN WIN THE GAME WITH UNDER 5 MINS. LEFT TO GO.  3^RD & 11.  THEY DON’T CONVERT.  THEY HADN’T CONVERTED THE 3^RD DOWN ALL GAME LONG UNTIL, WOW.  YOU SEE THE FLAG COMES IN.  PASS INTERFERENCE.  THEIR FIRST 3^RD DOWN CONVERSION.  GAME IS STILL ALIVE.  1^ST & 10.  THEY ARE INTO HOUSTON TERRITORY HERE.  MARVIN JONES WITH A PICKUP ON 15 YDS. IN A SLANT PATTERN DOWN TO THE 35 YD. LINE.  IT’S NOW 3^RD & 11.  DALTON DEEP.  HAS A.J. GREEN!  HERE’S THE THEME OF THE DAY.  JUST..YOU SAW THE ONE DEEP COMPLETION BETWEEN ANDY DALTON AND A.J. GREEN BUT WE’VE SEEN SEVERAL, SHAWN, THAT THEY JUST COULDN’T HOOK UP.  MISSED OPPORTUNITIES FOR ANDY DALTON.  THEY COULDN’T TAKE THE LEAD.  SO 4^TH & 11, AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING THROWING AN 8 YD. ROUTE ON 4^TH & 11.  NOT TO A.J. GREEN.  IF YOU’RE GONNA THROW THE FOOTBALL ON 4^TH & 11, THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST OFF. PLAY OF THE SEASON.  I’M TAKING MY CHANCES WITH A.J. GREEN BEHIND THE 1^ST DOWN MARKER.  SO THEY’RE TRYING TO RUN THE CLOCK OUT AND THEY RUN PLAY ACTION PASS!  A LITTLE BIT OF A DICEY CALL RIGHT THERE BUT MATT SCHAUB DELIVERS.  THEY GET THE 1^ST DOWN.  THEY WOULD GET ANOTHER ONE BY PENALTY A LITTLE BIT LATER; AND THEN IT WAS A MATTER OF A COUPLE OF KNEEL DOWNS AND FOR THE 2^ND STRAIGHT YEAR, IN THE AFC WILDCARD ROUND, THE HOUSTON TEXANS BEST THE CINCY BENGALS.  THE SCORE, 19-13.

 

01:16:07 – MINNESOTA VIKINGS @ GREEN BAY PACKERS

GREEN BAY AND MINNESOTA.  WE ALL THOUGHT CHRISTIAN PONDER FROM FLORIDA STATE BABY!  WAS GONNA START BUT HE HAD A BAD ARM ALL WEEK.  TESTED PREGAME.  SCRATCH.  JOE WEBB WHO DIDN’T EVEN THROW A PASS ALL SEASON GOT THE NOD AS THE STARTING QB.  WHAT’D YOU THINK THE SENTIMENT OF THE VIKINGS FANS WERE WHEN THEY HEARD THIS NEWS?  WELL HOW ABOUT THIS THOUGHT PROCESS?  ADRIAN PETERSON, WHO RAN FOR 409 AGAINST THE PACKERS IN 2 GAMES DURING THE REGULAR SEASON, INCLUDING A BUCK 99 LAST WEEK.  BUT HERE IN THE EARLY GOING 3^RD & 3. LOOK AT JOE WEBB.  THE ESCAPABILITY.  YEA, THAT’S SOMETHING THAT THEY THOUGHT WAS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE IN THIS GAME BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY WITH THE G.B. PACKERS THAT HE HAS TO PRACTICE ON A READ OPTION.  EARLY ON HE WAS SOMETHING.  AND THEN HERE’S ADRIAN PETERSON FOR 11 YDS. AND MOVING THE CHAINS.  3 PLAYS LATER THOUGH 3^RD & 7.  PONDER THE THOUGHT!  YEA BUT HE’S PROBABLY THINKING, “I COULD’VE MADE A BETTER THROW THAN THIS.”  I DON’T KNOW ABOUT THAT.  NOW SEE THAT’S HORRIBLE.  NO I KNOW ABOUT THAT.  HE COULD’VE MADE A BETTER THROW THAN THAT.  YOU’RE RIGHT ABOUT THAT.  LED TO A BLAIR WALSH F.G. AND 3-ZIP LEAD.  BUT THIS WAS PART OF THE PROBLEM ALL NIGHT.  JOE WEBB THOUGHT HE WAS PLAYING IN THE BACKYARD.  HE DIDN’T SPOT IT…3 TIMES!  YEA, THAT’S NOT GOOD.  WHAT ABOUT THE ..I MEAN IT WAS NOTABLE THAT THE LINEMEN KNEW WHAT TO DO.  HE JUST BATTED THAT BALL DOWN.  LED TO A VIKINGS PUNT.  HERE ENSUING PACKERS POSSESSION.  AARON RODGERS TO DWAYNE ARIS.  THIS GUY WAS SELLING CARS DOWN IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA 2 MTHS. AGO.  I’LL TELL YOU WHAT.  HE WON’T SELL ANOTHER ONE THE WAY HE’S RUNNING.  6 PLAYS LATER, HARRIS TAKING THE PITCH.  CUTTING IT BACK.  DOES HE GET IT IN?  THE REFS SAY NO.  THAT HE WAS DOWN INSIDE THE 1.  NOW THIS WOULD’VE BEEN THE LAST PLAY OF THE 1^ST QUARTER.  MIKE MCCARTHY’S CHECKING THE BIG BOARD.  DECIDES TO CHALLENGE IT.  GOOD CHALLENGE.  VERY GOOD CHALLENGE.  AS YOU SAID PRIME, HE IS NOT TRYING TO SELL ANYMORE CARS.  FOUGHT ALL THE WAY TO THE END.  GREAT CUTBACK ON.  HAD A BEAUTIFUL READ.  GOT INTO THE END ZONE.  STRETCHED OUT FOR THE TD.  AND PACKERS HAVE A 7-3 LEAD.  2^ND QUARTER.  WEBB, TRYING TO KEEP THE PLAY ALIVE BUT WATCH THIS.  CLAY MATTHEWS TURNS INTO THE HUMAN SPEED BUMP.  IS THAT NOT THE EASIEST SACK EVER?  YOU MISS SOME EASY ONES.  YOU GET SOME LIKE THAT.  THAT’S MATTHEWS BESTING THE ROOKIE, RYAN KALIL, TO HELP DROP WEBB.  NEXT PLAY 3^RD & 15.  WEBB PRESSURED AGAIN BY MIKE NEAL.  HERE WE GO AGAIN, RIGHT.  WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!  WHAT ARE YOU DOING?  THAT’S NOT GOOD.  THE ENORMITY OF THE GAME OUTWEIGH THE SKILL LEVEL AT THIS POINT.  HE WAS 3-12 FOR 22 PASSING YDS. IN THE 1^ST HALF.  JUST WHAT I SAID.  HERE’S THE REIGNING LEAGUE MVP AND HERE’S WHY.  AARON RODGERS TO TOM CRABTREE.  OH, THE UP AND OVER.  WHAT’D YOU SAY PRIME?  ALL THOSE TATTOOS …  IF A MAN WITH A TATTOO LIKE THAT, YOU THINK THAT HURT HIM?!  5 PLAYS LATER RODGERS TO GREG JENNINGS ON 4^TH & 5 AND, MAN, IF HE’S HEALTHY, THIS IS A DIFFERENT TEAM.  THAT’S RODGERS FAVORITE RECEIVER RIGHT THERE.  NO DOUBT.  IF YOU GET HIM BACK, SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN WITH JONES AND COBB.  THEY CAME IN, STEPPED UP BIG.  NOW HE’S GOT HIS FAVORITE GUY BACK.  ON 2^ND & GOAL A LITTLE PLAY ACTION.  LOOKING FOR JERMICHAEL FINLEY.  IT’S BROKEN UP.   JOHN KUHNS STOPPED SHORT ON 3^RD DOWN, SO LED TO A MASON CROSBIE F.G. AND A G.B. 10-3 LEAD.  SAME SCORE, UNDER 2 MINS. TO GO.  TEXTBOOK 2 MIN. DRIVE BY RODGERS WHO FINDS JORDY NELSON, PRIME.  I MEAN HE WAS JUST ON POINT.  IT SEEMS LIKE HE EXCELLED WHEN THEY GOT INTO THIS 2 MIN. OFFENSE.  NEXT PLAY, RODGERS TO GREG JENNINGS FOR A GAIN OF 14.  IF YOU ALLOW HIM TO KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING WHEN HE GETS UNDER CENTER, HE’S GONNA PICK YOU APART, AND HE DID ON THIS DRIVE.  HOW ABOUT THIS BULLET TO NELSON FOR 23.  THAT’S ALMOST LIKE CHEATING.  I WONDER IF MIKE MCCARTHY MAYBE HAD JOHN KUHN ON HIS PLAYOFF FANTASY TEAM BECAUSE HE TRIED TO GET IT TO HIM TWICE IN THE PREVIOUS YEAR HE FIRST SCORED; AND FINALLY HE GETS IN.  GOOD KID.  YOU GOTTA REWARD HIM.  HE PROBABLY WORKS HIS BUTT OFF ALL WEEK IN PRACTICE AS WELL AS SPECIAL TEAMS.  GREAT KID.  17-3 LEAD.  3^RD QUARTER.  (01:19:44)  PACKERS TRYING TO PILE IT ON.  3^RD & 4 RODGERS TO JAMES JONES FOR 19 YDS. ACROSS THE MIDDLE IN SIDE THE VIKING 40.  6 PLAYS LATER CROSBY LINING UP FOR A 32 YARDER BUT LOOK AT THIS.  JASPER BRINKLEY, YOU’RE OUR 12^TH MAN ON THE FIELD.  YOU’RE A 4^TH YEAR GUY OUT OF SOUTH…GET OFF THE FIELD!!  WHEN THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPEN AT THIS POINT OF THE YEAR, YOU HAVE PROBLEMS.  SO 12 MEN ON THE FIELD.  LESLIE FRASER, YOUR THOUGHTS?  EXACTLY.  NEXT PLAY, IT’S 1^ST & GOAL.  IT’S RODGERS TO JOHN KUHN WHO DOES HIS BEST.  NAT MOORE, WATCH THE SPIN.  BUT HE STAYS ON HIS FEET.  HE’S BEEN SAVING IT FOR THE PLAYOFFS.  ALL YEAR LONG LET’S THE OTHER GUYS SCORE.  OUTSIDE THE NUMBERS, THEY CAN CATCH THE TD. PASSES BUT HE’S SAVING IT FOR THE PLAYOFFS.  BUT LOOK AT T.J. LANG.  IS HE MORE THAN 5 YDS. DOWNFIELD?  MAN, I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING OUT FOR THE PASS HE WAS SO FAR DOWNFIELD.  THAT’S THE 2^ND TD. OF THE GAME FOR KUHN WHO HAD 1 COMING INTO THE GAME ALL SEASON LONG.  HERE COMES ADRIAN PETERSON.  GETS STOPPED BY ERIC WALDEN.  HELD UNDER 100.  THEY HELD HIM TO 99.  THEY TACKLE!  THAT’S WHAT THE G.B. PACKERS DIDN’T DO THE FIRST 2 MEETINGS.  THE OPEN GUY TACKLED ADRIAN PETERSON IN THIS GAME.  ALRIGHT.  GOING FOR IT ON 4^TH & 3.  WEBB.  THAT’S A LEGIT SACK BY CLAY MATTHEWS.  THAT’S THE MAN AGAIN.  SCOOPS IT UP.  THAT’S JUST BALLING RIGHT THERE.  CAME ALL THE WAY AROUND THE HORN.  GOT THE TRIFECTA THERE.  CAUSE FUMBLE.  SACK AND RECOVERY.  AND NEXT STOP FOR G.B., S.F. ON SATURDAY NIGHT.  THAT, OF COURSE, A REMATCH FROM WEEK 1, WON BY THE NINERS UP IN G.B.  SO THAT OUGHT TO BE A WHOLE LOT OF FUN.  PACKERS WIN THIS ONE, 24-10.  GREG JENNINGS WELCOME BACK AFTER THE GAME.  HE CAUGHT UP WITH OUR ALBERT GREER.

 

 

 

 

01:21:32 – INDIANAPOLIS COLTS @ BALTIMORE RAVENS

GAME 1 HERE ON SUNDAY OF WILDCARD WEEKEND.  RAY LEWIS HUGGING ROGER GOODELL.  COULD BE THE FINAL HOME GAME OF HIS 17 YR. CAREER.

THE COLTS HEAD COACH, CHUCK PAGANO, RETURNING, RECENT DEFENSIVE COORD. OF THE BALTIMORE RAVENS.  USED TO COACH RAY LEWIS, AND AN EMOTIONAL, MEANINGFUL PREGAME RITUAL THERE FOR RAY LEWIS.  AGAIN, QUITE POSSIBLY THE FINAL HOME GAME OF HIS RAVEN CAREER.  AS YOU MENTIONED, LOOK AT ED REED AND CHUCK PAGANO.  SO MUCH EMOTION ON BOTH SIDES OF THE FOOTBALL.  2 GREAT STORIES.  AND NO ONE EVER HAD A CHANCE TO SEE THAT OPENING BY RAY LEWIS OR BE IN THAT STADIUM WHEN IT’S HAPPENING.  ELECTRIFYING.  ELECTRIFYING.  CLYDE CHRISTIANSEN CALLING THE PLAYS TODAY FOR THE COLTS.  BRUCE ARIAN’S IN THE HOSPITAL.  AND THE BALT. RAVENS CAME AFTER ANDREW LUCK TODAY.  LOTS OF BLITZES.  THEY STARTED EARLY AND THEY LASTED MOST OF THE AFTERNOON.  AND RAY RICE PUTTING IT ON THE TURF RIGHT THERE.  MARSHALL YANDA COMES UP WITH IT FOR THE RAVENS BUT OFFICIALS SAY THAT LAWRENCE GUY ACTUALLY RECOVERED IT FOR THE COLTS.  AND THEY GOT IT WRONG.  YEA.  THEY GOT THIS WRONG BECAUSE YANDA ACTUALLY DOES COME UP WITH IT.  GUY DOES NOT POSSESS THE FOOTBALL.  LOSES IT, AS YOU SEE RIGHT THERE AND, ULTIMATELY, THE CALL WAS RIGHT BECAUSE THE OFFICIAL DECIDED HE THOUGHT A COLTS PLAYER HAD POSSESSION OF THE FOOTBALL.  BUT …  SO THE COLTS TAKE OVER AND THAT’S RAY LEWIS SHOOTING THE GAP, BRINGING DOWN VIC BALLARD FOR A 1 YD. LOSS.  ONE THING YOU CAN TALK ABOUT, A GUY THAT MIGHT BE RUSTY BUT ONE THING YOU DON’T LOSE AS A FOOTBALL PLAYER IS INSTINCTS.  RAY LEWIS HAS SOME OF THE BEST INSTINCTS TO EVER PLAY THIS GAME.  12 PLAYS LATER, 3^RD & 5.  BALL COMES OUT.  PRESSURED AND SACKED BY PAUL KRUEGER AND HE FUMBLES.  PRENNEL MCFEE COMES UP WITH IT FOR BALT.  AND THAT WAS THE GAME PLAN TODAY . BRING THE HEAT AT THE ROOKIE QB AND SEE IF HE CAN HANDLE IT.  AND FLACCO TRIED TO GET THAT TO VONTE DAVIS.  HE COULDN’T CATCH IT.  AND THAT WAS THE TALE OF THE GAME.  A LOT OF MISSED OPPORTUNITIES.  BY BOTH SIDES, YEA.  A LOT OF …PLAYS THAT GUYS DID NOT CAPITALIZE ON.  JOE FLACCO MADE SOME NICE THROWS TODAY.  1^ST DOWN & 10 ON THE NEXT DRIVE WITH TIME, AND LOOKING FOR TORY SMITH.  GOT HIM.  GOOD CATCH.  I’LL TELL YOU WHAT, JOE FLACCO IS …SOME OF IT IS VERY VERY GOOD.  SOME OF IT YOU JUST SCRATCH YOUR HEAD.  BUT YOU JUST DON’T KNOW WHICH GUY YOU’RE GONNA GET ON ANY GIVEN SUNDAY.  WELL TANDEN DOSS COULD’VE CAUGHT THAT BALL.  YEA, PLAYS LIKE THAT THAT YOUR RECEIVERS NEED TO HELP YOU OUT.  THAT’S NOT SEEING THE SCORE SHEET TO SAY, “A GUY MAKE A GREAT CATCH.”  THOSE ARE THE CATCH FOR THE RECEIVERS.  THERE’S ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY, AS YOU TALKED EARLIER DARREN.  RAY LEWIS WITH AN OPPORTUNITY, WITH AN INTERCEPTION.  HIS LAST HOME GAME.  HE WANTED THAT.  HE’S JUST PROBABLY TRYING A LITTLE TOO HARD.  ISN’T IT FUNNY HOW THE BALL FINDS GUYS, CERTAIN GUYS ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD?  01:24:24 – LUCK THEN FINDING HIS ROOKIE T.E., ONE OF HIS ROOKIE T.E.’S, DWAYNE ALLEN.  BREAKS ADRIAN HAMILTON’S TACKLE.  PICKS UP 22 YDS.  THE ARROW’S POINTING UP FOR THIS OFFENSE.  FILLED WITH ROOKIES THAT ARE ALL PLAYING QUITE WELL.  ONCE AGAIN, YOU SEE THE PRESSURE COMING.  BLITZES FROM ALL OVER THE FIELD TODAY  SACKS BY PAUL KRUEGER AND CORY GRAHAM LED TO A F.G. TO TIE IT AT 3.  JOE FLACCO JUST MAKING THAT…FINDING HIMSELF ENOUGH TIME AND FINDING A LAY IN THERE TO GIVE IT TO RAY RICE.  AND RAY DOES THE REST.  YEA, I WANT TO SEE THEM USE RAY MORE IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION.  SCREEN PASSES.  LITTLE SHORT PASSES.  GIVE HIM THE BALL AND LET HIM DO WHAT HE DOES.  TO THE 2 YD. LINE.  1^ST & GOAL.  GIVE IT TO THE FULLBACK VONTE LEACH.  POWERS HIS WAY INTO THE END ZONE.  RAVENS UP 10-3.  THAT WAS A BIG SCORE BEFORE HALFTIME.  VONTE LEACH, UNSUNG HERO.  BANGED-UP.  YEA.  OUT THERE PERFORMING.  TOUGH GUY.  LOOK AT THE PLAY HERE BY ANDREW LUCK TO REGGIE WAYNE.  20 YDS. DOWN TO THE RAVENS 43.  WELL THIS IS WHAT THEY’VE MAJORED IN ALL SEASON LONG.  QUALITY DRIVES WITH PRESSURE COMING.  THIS ONE’S NOT GOING TO GO SO WELL.  THAT BALL DOESN’T REACH THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.  SO YOU’RE GONNA GET GROUNDING.  PRESSURE THERE BY DANIEL ELLERBY FORCING THAT PENALTY.  PUSHING THE COLTS BACK TO THEIR OWN 41.  NOW ANDREW LUCK MAKING A BIG PLAY HERE.  STEPPING UP.  TOUGH THROW ACROSS HIS BODY AT T.Y. HILTON.  GOOD PIVOT.  A LITTLE SPRING DOWN THE SIDE TO…WOULD’VE BEEN IN F.G. RANGE.  A GREAT PLAY.  3^RD & 26.  YEA, BUT THIS IS A LITTLE PREMATURE TO TALK ABOUT NEXT WEEK, BUT THAT’S NOT A GOOD SIGN FOR THIS BALT. DEFENSE BECAUSE THE NEXT GUY THEY’RE GONNA PLAY WILL DO THAT EACH AND EVERY PLAY.  YOU TALKED ABOUT A HUGE…PEYTON MANNING …FOR THE RAVENS TO SCORE THAT TD.  THIS IS A HUGE LIFT AS WELL FOR THE INDY COLTS TO DRAW WITHIN 4 GOING INTO THE 3^RD QUARTER.  52 YDS.  THAT WAS A POST-SEASON CAREER LONG FOR VINATIERI.  AND PAUL KRUEGER SPENT A LOT OF TIME IN THE BACKFIELD WITH THE COLTS TODAY.  YES HE DID.  LOOKED LIKE HE GOT A BIT OF A HEAD START RIGHT HERE BUT NO FLAG.  THEY’VE BEEN TRYING TO GET PRESSURE ON THE QB.  TERRELL SUGGS A LITTLE BANGED-UP.  PAUL KRUEGER PROVIDED THAT TODAY.  ENSUING RAVENS DRIVE.  THIS IS 2^ND DOWN & 6.  FLACCO PUTTING IT IN REALLY THE PERFECT SPOT THAT’S STILL A GREAT CATCH BY ANQUAN BOLDEN.  YEA, THEY HAD SOMETHING GOING ON.  ANQUAN BOLDEN, NO CATCHES IN THE 1^ST HALF.  2^ND HALF HAD AT LEAST 5 CATCHES FOR WELL OVER 100 YDS . THAT’S JUST A BEAUTIFUL THROW AND CATCH.  JOE FLACCO SAVED HIS BEST FOOTBALL FOR THE 2^ND HALF OF THIS GAME.  THAT WAS BALDIN BEATING CASIOUS VAUGHN ON THE DOUBLE MOVE.  ANOTHER PLAY FROM JOE FLACCO.  STEPPING IT UP.  DUMP IT OFF TO DENNIS PITA.  HE FINDS HIS WEARY TO THE END ZONE.  THE RAVENS FIND THEMSELVES LEADING BY 11.  AND, AGAIN, YOU’RE SAYING TO YOURSELF, “JOE FLACCO DOING NICE THINGS.  MAYBE HE IS THAT 100 MILL. DOLLAR QB EARNING HIMSELF SOME MONEY HERE.”  3^RD & 2.  ANDREW LUCK BUYING TIME AND FINDING A WAY TO GET 6 YDS. FOR A FIST TO THE BALT. 43.  3 PLAYS LATER, ANOTHER 3^RD DOWN.  THIS TIME 3^RD & 2 AGAIN.  WANTS HIS ROOKIE R.B., VIC BALLARD.  HE’S GOT HIM.  HE’S GOT JUST ENOUGH.  PICKS UP 3 YDS. FOR 1^ST DOWN AT THE BALT. 32.  I’M TELLING YOU, THERE’S A LOT TO WORK WITH GOING FORWARD ON THIS COLTS OFFENSE.  YES, THE FUTURE’S VERY BRIGHT.  A LITTLE HIGH AND BEHIND REGGIE WAYNE BUT STILL HE HAD A CHANCE AT IT.  YEA, REGGIE WAS A LITTLE BIT UPSET AT ANDREW.  ANDREW KNOW HE MISSED THIS PASS BECAUSE IT’S A QUICK PASS.  THE HOT ROUTE.  HE THREW IT A LITTLE BIT HIGH AND BEHIND REGGIE WAYNE.  F.G. MADE IT 17-6.  ON THE SIDELINE THERE WITH THE MAN CALLING THE PLAYS TODAY.  THAT’S CLYDE CHRISTENSEN WITH BRUCE ARIANS IN THE HOSPITAL WITH A SICKNESS.  4^TH QUARTER NOW.  RAY RICE, A LITTLE PATIENCE OFF THE LEFT SIDE THERE.  HE GOES 18 YDS.  YEA. ONE THING YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OF WHEN YOU’RE A R.B. AND YOU BREAK INTO THE OPEN FIELD, AND YOU START TO SHAKE AND BAKE.  MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THERE’S GUYS CHASING FROM BEHIND. YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO PROTECT THAT FOOTBALL.  SOMETHING THAT’S…WE HAVE NOT SEEN RAY RICE DO THIS SEASON WITH ONLY 1 FUMBLE BUT HE HAD 2 TODAY.  2 BIG ONES TOO.  … RECOVERS.  NEXT COLTS DRIVE.  LUCK TO WAYNE FOR 19 YDS. ON 2^ND & 6.  COLTS GOTTA GET THE BALL IN THE END ZONE.  KICKING F.G.’S IS NOT GOING TO GET YOU PLAYOFF VICTORIES ON THE ROAD.  3^RD DOWN & 9.  THAT’S NOT GONNA HELP EITHER.  DONNIE AVERY CAN’T COME UP WITH IT.  THIS IS THE SIGN OF A YOUNG TEAM.  THE DROPS.  YOU KNOW THE DROPPED PASSES, NOT MAKING THE RIGHT DECISIONS ARE SOMETHING A YOUNG TEAM IS GOING TO DO.  A GOOD LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR THEM.  FROM 40 YDS. OUT, I WAS KIND OF WAITING FOR THAT ONE TO DRAW IN.  IT JUST STAYED STRAIGHT.  ADAM VINATIERI MISSES FROM 40.  RAY RICE RELIEVED.  NEXT BALT. DRIVE.  BERNARD PIERCE IN THE CLEAR.  43 YDS. LATER HE’S AT THE COLTS 18.  IT’S ALWAYS AMAZING.  THIS TIME OF YEAR YOU START TO SEE A GUY YOU NEVER HEARD OF.  A YOUNG R.B. START TO PLAY HIS BEST FOOTBALL.  AND AN OLDER WIDE RECEIVER PLAYING VERY WELL FOR THE RAVENS.  ANQUAN BOLDEN.  WHAT DO THEY TEACH YOU?  GO UP AND GET IT AT ITS HIGHEST POINT?  GO UP AND CATCH IT AT ITS HIGHEST POINT.  HE IS SO STRONG TOO.  YOU’LL SEE BUTLER GETS AN ARM IN THERE.  GREAT CONCENTRATION AND STRENGTH.  A NICE JOB CREATING SOME SPACE ON THE ROUTE.  JOE FLACCO PUT IT UP THERE.  GAVE HIS RECEIVER A CHANCE TO CATCH THE FOOTBALL.  RAY’S GOT SOMETHING TO DANCE ABOUT.  BOLDEN, ALL 5 OFF HIS CATCHES FOR A BUCK 45, AND THE TD. IN THE 2^ND HALF.  THAT ONE PICKED OFF.  KERRY WILLIAMS.  YOU KNEW IT WAS GONNA COME.  40, WHAT 50 PASS ATTEMPTS.  YEA, CLOSE TO 50.  THEY WERE PRESSING THE ISSUE.  THEY’RE TRAILING AT THIS POINT.  A BLITZING DEFENSE.  SOONER OR LATER YOU KNEW IT WAS GONNA BE, A PLAY WAS GONNA BE MADE BY THIS BALT. RAVENS DEFENSE.  RAY LEWIS.  ONE OF THE BEST OF ALL TIMES.  EMOTIONAL ON THE SIDELINE.  I APPRECIATE THIS.  DVR RECORDED.  ONE OF THE BEST FOOTBALL PLAYERS YOU WILL EVER SEE.  NOW I WILL SUGGEST.  CHERISH HIS TIME.  THAT THE RAVENS, GET YOURSELF SOME REST RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOU’RE GOING TO DENVER AND THAT TEAM’S GONNA PUT UP A LITTLE BIT BETTER FIGHT THAN THE ONE YOU GOT FROM THE COLTS TODAY.

 

01:30:01 – SEATTLE SEAHAWKS @ WASHINGTON REDSKINS

WASHINGTON REDSKINS AND THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS FINISHING UP WILDCARD WEEKEND WITH 2 STELLAR ROOKIE PERFORMERS AT QB.  R.G. III, THE #2 OVERALL PICK AND RUSSELL WILSON WHO CAME OUT OF THE 3^RD ROUND TO HAVE A STELLAR SEASON IN SEATTLE.  AND ROBERT GRIFFIN THE III AROUND THE END WITH THAT KNEE BRACE ON THE RIGHT KNEE.  REALLY DIDN’T SEEM TO HAVE THAT R.G. III 2^ND GEAR THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE GAME BUT HE DID HAVE ENOUGH TO GAIN THE 1^ST DOWN THERE.  3 MINS. INTO THE GAME HE FINDS PIERRE GARCON FOR THE FIRST DOWN AND YDS. AFTER THE CATCH THAT’S A 30 YD. GAIN TO THE SEAHAWKS 21.  WHEN THAT GUY’S HEALTHY AND ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD, PIERRE GARCON, IT REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE FOR THE WASH. REDSKINS.  IT’S TIME FOR THE BUTLER MARSHALL FAULK.  AND LISTEN, EARLY ON IN THE GAME LIKE RIGHT NOW, I MEAN DOWN.  HIS OFFENSIVE LINE DID A REALLY GOOD JOB AT TAKING CONTROL OF THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.  18 YD. GAIN FOR ALFRED MORRIS AND THEN THE ROOKIE QB FLINGS IT IN THE END ZONE.  EVAN ROYSTER.  9 PLAYS, 80 YDS., 5 MINS. DEION.  AT THIS POINT THE WHOLE COUNTRY’S SAYING, “OH MY GOODNESS.  THE WASH. REDSKINS ARE FOR REAL.”  ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY GOT THE BALL RIGHT BACK AND THEN ROBERT GRIFFIN PICKING THEM UP, PUTTING THEM DOWN FOR ANOTHER 1^ST DOWN.  8 YDS.  BALL COMES LOOSE.  RULED DOWN ON THE PLAY AFTER FURTHER REVIEW.  THAT’S A GOOD CALL.  I THINK THAT TOLD THE SEAHAWKS RIGHT THERE THAT R.G. III IS NOT HEALTHY.  UNTIL 4 PLAYS LATER THOUGH, HE REALLY DIDN’T APPEAR TO BE HEALTHY AFTER HE PLANTED HERE.  HE SAID AFTER THE GAME THAT HIS KNEE BUCKLED AND EVEN SCARED HIM A LITTLE BIT.  AS ROBERT GRIFFIN III TRIED TO THROW BACK TO PIERRE GARCON.  IT’S INCOMPLETE.  HE LIMPS BACK TO THE HUDDLE AFTER TAKING HIS HELMET OFF.  GOES BACK IN THERE AND THEN FLINGS IT IN THE END ZONE TO LOGAN PAULSEN WITH KURT COUSINS LOOKING ON.  ON 3^RD & GOAL IT’S A TD.  2 TD. LEAD NOW FOR THE REDSKINS.  MAN, THAT’S JUST A STRAIGHT SENSE OF TIMING.  THAT’S WHAT YOUNG GUYS ARE NOT ABLE TO DO.  LOOK AT THAT.  IT’S A DROP BACK.  I’M THROWING IT RIGHT ON TIME WHERE I’M SUPPOSED TO THROW IT FOR A TD.  AND THEY FLAG BRUCE IRVIN FOR UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS.  R.G. III AND HE SAID AFTER THE GAME HE WENT TO GET HIS KNEE TAPED.  YEA, WENT TO THE FEEL GOOD ROOM.  AND THEN JAMES ANDREWS RIGHT THERE, THE FAMED DOCTOR JAMES ANDREWS WHO SAID TO USA TODAY THAT HE WAS A LITTLE BIT CONCERNED TO HAVE R.G. III COME BACK AS FAST AS HE DID.  HE WAS AT THE GAME, AND THEN THERE WAS SEATTLE CONCERNED WITH A PROBLEM ON THE EXCHANGE RIGHT THERE BETWEEN RUSSELL WILSON AND MARSHAWN LYNCH; BUT MARSHAWN TOOK THE BALL RIGHT UP FROM THE TURF AND ACTUALLY GOT A 20 YD. GAIN.  THEN 5 PLAYS LATER, MICHAEL ROBINSON, THE LATEST FULLBACK TO GET ONE.  VONTE LEACH SCORED.  KUHN SCORED TWICE.  NOW IT’S MICHAEL ROBINSON OF THE SEAHAWKS.  THOSE X-FACTORS RICH.  THEY CAN COUNT FOR EVERYBODY BUT THERE’S GOTTA BE A GUY ON THE TEAM THAT’S WILLING TO MAKE THE PLAY THAT NORMALLY DOES THAT.  14-10 AND HERE COMES EARL THOMAS MAKING A PLAY.  THIS IS A PLAY, EARL THOMAS WAS A GREAT PLAY.  R.G. III CANNOT STEP IN THROUGH TO THIS THROW.  SO HE UNDERTHREW IT A BIT, AND YOU SEE THE SCUFFLING MATCH GOING ON AS WELL.  AND THAT LED TO A STEPHEN __ F.G.  SO 14 UNANSWERED FOR THE REDSKINS TO START; AND THEN TILL THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS ANSWERED WITH 13 OF THEIR OWN, AND HERE’S THE WAY THE 3^RD QUARTER STARTED WITH A BEAST MODE RUN RIGHT HERE.  MARSHAWN LYNCH 26 YDS. TO THE REDSKINS 34.  JUST A GUY YOU DO NOT WANT TO LET GET RUNNING DOWN.  HE’LL …STOPPING HIM AT THE POINT OF ATTACK.  BUT, BOY, HE BOUNCED AND GOT BEAT INTO THE SECONDARY.  THEN 5 PLAYS LATER HE SETS THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS RIGHT UP ON THE DOORSTEP; AND 2 PLAYS LATER TRYING TO KNOCK IT IN.  THEY KNOCKED THE BALL LOOSE, DO THE REDSKINS, AND IT IS A TURNOVER INSIDE THE 2 YD. LINE.  LONDON FLETCHER’S THE ONE WHO HELPED CREATE THE CONTACT, AND OTIS JENKINS RECOVERS IT.  LYNCH, ONLY 2 FORCED LOST FUMBLES DURING THE REGULAR SEASON.  THAT WAS A HUGE ONE RIGHT THERE, AND THE REDSKINS ARE STILL UP BY ONE EVEN THOUGH THE SEAHAWKS RULE THE 2^ND & 3^RD QUARTERS.  4^TH QUARTER, MINUTE AND A HALF INTO IT, R.G. III SORT OF FRED SANDFORD’S HIS WAY TO A 9 YD. GAIN RIGHT HERE.  39.  I LIKE THAT RICH.  FRED …  HOLDING THE BLOCKS.  4 PLAYS LATER, LEONARD HANKERSON CAN’T GRAB IT.  I NEED YOU AT RECEIVER MIKE.  TRIED TO GET THAT BALL.  LAY OUT AND GET THAT.  YOU DON’T GET THAT, YOU WON’T SEE THAT CALL AGAIN.  THE REDSKINS FORCED TO PUNT.  HERE COMES MARSHAWN LYNCH ON 2^ND & SHORT.  1^ST DOWN AND THEN SOME.  18 YD. GAIN TO RIGHT AROUND MIDFIELD.  3 PLAYS LATER A BIG 3^RD & LONG.  RUSSELL WILSON, GREAT PASS BLOCKING ON THE BLITZ BECAUSE THE REDSKINS WERE BLITZING THEIR HEADS OFF MARSHALL.  OH GOD, JIM HASLETT WAS CALLING SO MANY BLITZES.  I SAID THEY HAD TO RUN A SCREEN.  RAN A NICE WIDE TO LATER ZACK MILLER.  1^ST DOWN.  3 PLAYS LATER 3^RD & 5.  MARSHAWN LYNCH, 1^ST DOWN AND THEN LOOK WHO GETS THE TOUCHDOWN?  IT’S LYNCH WITH RUSSELL WILSON BLOCKING.  YEA, I LOVE THAT.  THAT’S THE 2^ND TIME WE SAW HIM.  WE JUST SAW HIM BLOCK ON THAT FLOW RUN BEFORE, AND NOW HE’S BLOCKING ON THE TOUCHDOWN.  WHAT A COMMITMENT.  WHAT A COMMITTED YOUNG MAN THAT IS.  27 YD. RUN WITH, AGAIN, THE QB RUNNING PAST THE R.B.  HIS NAME IS RUSSELL.  LAST NAME?  WILSON.  IT’S A 5 PT. LEAD, AND RUSSELL WILSON IS THE FIRST 2 PT. CONVERSION ATTEMPT ALL SEASON LONG FOR SEATTLE, AND IT COMES IN GAME 17, AND IT PUTS THEM UP BY THE FULL COMPLIMENT OF 7 PTS.  SO R.G. III WITH 7 MINS. TO GO.  PLAY FAKING.  WHAT CAN HE DO DOWN 7?  BRUCE IRVIN, FELLOW ROOKIE CLASSMAN, PUTS HIM DOWN ON THE TURF.  THAT’S FAMILY RIGHT THERE CARRYING THAT IRVING LAST NAME.  I TOLD HIM, “GET TO THE QB!”  OH BOY.  GOT UP, DEFEATED A BLOCKER AND GOT THE SACK.  AND THEN A TOTAL DISASTROUS MOMENT FOR THE REDSKINS ON THE NEXT PLAY AS IT’S THE SNAP THAT’S ROLLED ON THE GROUND; AND NOW ROLLING ON THE GROUND HIMSELF IS R.G. III AS THE INSULT WAS LOSING THE FOOTBALL, DOWN 7, INSIDE THEIR OWN 10, AND THE INJURY BEING WHO KNOWS WHAT?  THERE’S AN M.R.I., ACCORDING TO OUR JEFF __, COMING ON MONDAY.  AFTER THE GAME R.G. III SAID HE DIDN’T THINK IT WAS ANYTHING SERIOUS.  DR. JAMES ANDREWS COMES ON OUT.  KURT COUSINS DEFINITELY SEEMS THAT HE’S GOTTA COME IN THE GAME NOW WITH 6 MINS. TO GO.  RUSSELL WILSON AND EVERYBODY’S HEARTS IN THEIR THROATS AS R.G. III IS THANKFULLY ABLE TO WALK OFF ON HIS OWN POWER.  THROWS HIS ARM AROUND HIS COACH WHO WAS PEPPERED AFTER THE GAME ABOUT WHY WAS R.G. III STILL IN THE GAME?  MORE ON THAT LATER ON.  AS FOR WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE FUMBLE, IT WAS A 3 AND OUT.  OLDEN TATE LOOKING FOR A FLAG.  5-1/2 MINS. TO GO.  (01:36:26)  __ KICKS THE F.G. TO MAKE IT A 10 PT. GAME AND OUT COMES COUSINS NEEDING SOME MAGIC TO HAPPEN; AND ON 2^ND & 10, HE FINDS LEONARD HANKERSON FOR A 1^ST DOWN.  NICE OUT RIGHT THERE.  PUTS THE BALL PERFECTLY ON THE SIDELINE.  HE JUST COMES DOWN WITH THE PLAY.  BUT, 4 PLAYS LATER IT’S 4^TH & FOREVER, AND THAT’S CHUM IN THE WATER FOR THE SEAHAWKS DEFENSE.  THEY PUT EVERYBODY AND THEIR MOTHER ON THE BLITZ.  WHAT ABOUT SHANAHAN HAD THE RIGHT PROTECTION CALLED UP.  WE CALL THAT… JUST MISSED THE BLOCK.  THAT’S A TURNOVER ON DOWNS.  SO RUSSELL WILSON COMES ON OUT.  4^TH & SHORT.  JUST ESSENTIALLY WITH WASH. HAVING 1 TIMEOUT LEFT AND THE 2 MIN. WARNING NEEDING 1 MORE 1^ST DOWN WILL WRAP IT UP, AND THERE’S ZACH MILLER.  A NICE GAIN JUST LIKE MOST OF THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS AFTER THE 1^ST 13 MINS. OF THE GAME ELAPSED.  RUSSELL WILSON, THE 75^TH OVERALL CHOICE IN THE DRAFT.  NOT THE 2^ND OVERALL CHOICE THERE ON THE SCREEN.  NOT THE 1^ST OVERALL CHOICE YOU’LL SEE LATER ON WITH RICHARD SHERMAN AND TRENT WILLIAMS EXCHANGING PLEASANTRIES AFTER THE GAME.  HE’S THE 75^TH OVERALL CHOICE.  THE 3^RD ROUND DRAFT PICK WHO NOBODY GAVE A CHANCE TO START FOR THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY DID IN FREE AGENCY; WHAT THEY ALREADY HAD THERE.  IT IS RUSSELL WILSON IN THE YEAR OF THE ROOKIE QB, IS THE ONE WHO IS STILL STANDING AFTER WILD CARD WEEKEND.  THE SEAHAWKS ARE MOVING ON TO ATLANTA ON SUNDAY.
