Then the win streak extends to before the Wilson era. Still, those are just stats and these are the playoffs, plus both teams have been very up and down during the season as far as quality of play goes, and commonly done just enough to win games. |
Well as far as Pete Caroll is concerned, doing "just enough" is his fucking religion. That's why we're pretty much incapable of blowing anybody out, even if it's a trash team. For as long as it's a one score game, Pete is perfectly happy to have the offense keep banging it's head against the wall, stubbornly running for 1.1 yards per carry, waiting until 3rd and long to throw a pass, and ultimately, waiting for the other team to force him into taking the handcuffs off the offense. Of course, only until it's a one score game again, at which point it's ok to go back to doing fuck all.
