We have absolutely no time to waste. Tons of games. It it's chaos. It's Thursday night. It's Boomer up past his bedtime.
Booms, what's going on? Hey Mike, week sixteen got off to an unbelievable start. What a great football game in Seattle and what a weird way for the Seattle Seahawks to win.
Yeah, uh look, I I still come out of the game with a couple of takes. We can kind of pick this apart. Thirty eight thirty seven and overtime, I still think the Rams are the better team, and I still think Sam Darnold stinks. So which one do you want to go with first? 'Cause I know those are both counterintuitive considering Seattle won and you see Darnold completing a two point play to win a game. I just walk away from it, multiple INTs. You needed a punt touchdown. Down. You needed uh you can explain the ref call on the two point conversion, 'cause I got up to refill my water and all of a sudden I'm back. Wait a minute, what do you mean it's a two pointer? Um and then I have a Darnold stat for you, but what were your takeaways last?
All right, so first of all, I'm not gonna go Sam Donald stinks. I'm not gonna say that. I'm gonna say, you know, he brought his team back sixteen points down, nine minutes to go in the game. That tells me something. You know, that was really good for him. I felt good for him because I wasn't feeling good for him during the game. So, but the fact that he was able to win, they are the number one seed right now. They got a little tougher schedule the next two weeks, as opposed to the Rams. So that may flip. But I I gotta feel good for Sam this morning. Morning. As far as the officiating is concerned, yeah, you know, it is really tough for us as NFL fans and players and ex players when we sit there and we watch and the teams are lining up, they're getting ready to receive a kickoff, and all of a sudden the game is stopped.
And it's stopped by a group of people in New York that are looking at something and there are nuances within the rules. And no, you cannot um advance a fumble uh down uh for a two point point. play, you know, it's the old holy roller rule that you you can't do that. So this is not ruled a fumble.
