While the scab refs’ Fail Mary ruling in Week 3 will be better remembered, it won’t end up being the only bad call that helped the Seahawks to a win in 2012. The Chicago Tribune learned that the NFL admitted to the Bears after their 23-17 overtime loss to Seattle in Week 13 that game officials had erred by not calling two offensive pass interference penalties committed by Seahawks receivers. Both uncalled penalties occurred on drives that resulted in Seattle touchdowns, including the winning score in overtime. The first came on third-and-6 from the Seahawks 47 with 3 minutes, 10 seconds left in the first half. Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson threw a deep sideline pass to wide receiver Golden Tate. Tate subtly shoved Jennings to the ground with his right hand near the Bears 30 and came down with what he turned into a 49-yard reception. The Seahawks scored a touchdown on the next play from the 4. The disputed no-call against Tillman came in overtime. With the Seahawks facing a cri...

Seahawks couldn't be happier with Russell Okung

Via 60 Max Power O  |  December 29, 2012
Seattle Seahawks OT Russell Okung has certainly come into his own this season, earning him a starting spot for the NFC in this year's Pro Bowl. "This is a chance to see him grow and develop through the whole thing," offensive coordinator Tom Cable told Danny O'Neil on the Seattle Times. "Then to stay healthy, you have to do that. His progression has been...

It is time to pay respect to the Seahawks Mr. Okung

Via NorthWest Sports Beat  |  December 28, 2012
Okung’s his own man It is nearly impossible for a player to follow a legend. That is exactly what Pete Carroll and John Schneider asked Russell Okung to do when they selected him with the 6th overall pick in 2010, their first draft. Chances are, if you’re still reading this, you know the legend that I am referring too, Walter Jones. In my opinion, #71 Walter Jones is several...

Via Tireball.com  |  December 27, 2012

Via Seattle Sports Nut  |  December 27, 2012
Seahawks star cornerback, Richard Sherman, announced on his twitter account the results of his four game suspension appeal today with a simple, “I won.” Sherman had been accused of using Adderal, a PED in the NFL’s eyes, and was up for losing the rest of the season, including any kind of playoff appearance, after Seattle clinched it’s second post season run under Pete...

Seahawks shafted for 2013 Pro Bowl roster spots

Via NorthWest Sports Beat  |  December 29, 2012
 East Coast Bias The Pro Bowl rosters are out—and flawed. Even though the Seattle Seahawks are indisputably the NFL’s hottest team, and just torched the “best defense” in the league for 42 points, we have the same number of pro bowlers as…..the Kansas City Chiefs. That’s right. The football world thinks we have the same amount of elite players as a team with more pro...

Richard Sherman Appears To Have Won His Appeal For Positive Adderall Test

Sherman made the case that his urine specimen was contaminated because it was leaking from the container and the NFL must have felt that this was an adequate argument to drop his suspension...

Richard Sherman Wins Appeal

Via Next Impulse Sports  |  December 27, 2012
Christmas week just keeps getting better for the Seattle Seahawks. Today, cornerback Richard Sherman announced he’d won his appeal of a four-game suspension related to performance enhancing drugs that would have kept him out of Sunday’s game against the St. Louis Rams, and, more importantly, the entire NFC playoffs.

Seahawks CB Richard Sherman Wins PED Appeal Against NFL

After spending yesterday passive aggressively complaining on Twitter about being snubbed from the Pro Bowl, Richard Sherman finally has something to hang his hat on.
