Pete Carroll

[Ghost_Lombardi]

He's a douchebag.

It needed its own thread.

[texas]

Agreed.

[RingoCStarrQB]

Something happened between Earl Thomas and Pete Carroll. Has anyone heard about this? I've never heard the details.

[Crazylegs Starks]

Once it became a three score game, it was over. A non-douche coach would've called three straight runs and punted. As as result, Amos almost got his knee destroyed on that one deep shot.

The timeout after the Preston Smith sack was the epitome of classless.

The timeout after the Preston Smith sack was the epitome of classless.

Yeah, I could see maintaining an atmosphere of never giving up, fight to the end, etc. I wasn’t too upset about it…up until that timeout. At that point, yeah, what a douchebag.

[Labrev]

Yeah, shut out looks even funnier considering he tried to use garbage time to score and avoid his fate (but still couldn't do it).

Let the door hit you on the way out.

[Pugger]

He's been a creep going back to his days at USC. Remember how he acted after the Fail Mary?

One thing that puzzles me slightly. Carroll made reference to the Rodgers fumble and recovery and how he thought they should have had it (obviously, since he eventually managed to throw the red flag). And it seems everyone else connected with the Seahawks, and not a few neutral observers, agreed.

But as I saw it, Rodgers dropped the ball and then fell onto it and got hold of it with both hands, either a split second before or (at the very worst) simultaneous with the defender; and Rodgers was lying on the ground at the time and the defender touched him, so the play was dead. It is totally irrelevant what happened after, whether the defender pulled it away from Rodgers. Rodgers held the ball, the play was dead, end of.

I was actually surprised the replay didn't say the ruling was confirmed. It seemed that obvious that Rodgers had both hands on it. Am I missing something?

[go pak go]

Yeah I thought too it was pretty obvious simultaneous recovery.

That was far more simultaneous recovery than it was a "simultaneous catch" in 2012.

Pete Carroll is such a piece of sh*t. The reason why the Packers Seahawks is such a rivalry is because there is simply no respect between the two teams. Seattle is such a garbage franchise. Terrible tone at the top.

I respect Mike Zimmer. Until the Nagy era, I always at least respected what Chicago was trying to do.

I don't respect Seattle. I respect Wilson, Wagner, a few other players. But by and large that team is a dirty team because they have a dirty and slimy leader. It started immediately in 2012 with the Fail Mary. Then continued in the 2013 preseason game at Lambeau where the Seahawks kept getting personal fouls, etc.

I just have no respect for how they play. I see they try and get energy, etc. but the result often happens of unnecessarily bad things happening. What pisses me off though is Carroll got rewarded for it. Never have I seen a team get more balls to bounce their way.

All that being said, I hope they beat the Cardinals this Sunday.

The irony. Pete Carroll arguing against a simultaneous possession ruling that went against him. Pffft...suck on it, Pete.

I'll enthusiastically drink his tears in as well as their fans. Zero sympathy or respect for that organization or their fans.

[paco]

For the record, I find it depressing that there is a Pete Carroll thread in our beloved Packers forum. I get it, but its depressing. I hate that man so much.

[Acrobat]

When he reached out for the red flag but something else fell out, I thought for sure it was going to be a pack of gum. I was so disappointed.

Did they replay it? If the play was blown dead when Rodgers was touched I don't think that is reviewable??

What is kinda funny is I haven't heard/read anyone talking about the douchebag who threw Billy Turner's (?) shoe and got a 15 yard penalty. That was a big play and changed the game basically. Instead of 3rd and 4ish we got 15 yards and an automatic first down inside their 40. That play is a microcosm of that entire bunch of dirty losers.

Evidently it might have been one of those digital hand warmers. At first it looked like an old flip phone.

That was a huge mistake. Dunlap as a vet, should know better. But glad he did it!

I couldn't stop laughing at how dumb that was to do that.
