To me, it's the same.  The pct of winning don't change, whether you score or take the knee.  It's still 99%....

Wait I missed it because I was typing a message here... why did we take the knee ? Does it run the clock ?

If Settle blocks the FG, and runs it back for TD, they can get the game within 6 points.  It's best not to give them that opportunity.

What an absolute crazy game.  Starts with a 100+ yard fumble recovery for a TD and basically ends with a blocked FG for a TD.  You cannot make it up if you tried.

No but it means they can't return a screw up
Smell my cheese you mother!

Great win.  Give coach credit for using new players in offense

Our new running back please.  I don't want to watch Singletary running like Stanton out there.

Simmons, how's that for an "Are you kidding me???" play of the day?

That one makes up for the 102 yd fiasco to start the game.

What a game! This one's had it all!

Always special to take a win home from the Pacific Northwest!

This one should keep the vultures off the regular culprits for at least this week anyway!

Peace!

I am very happy for the QB. Daniel Jones.

I hope that young man has a nice ride home across the country. He played well and he took a beating today. Plenty to improve upon yes but he went out to Seattle and beat a playoff team.

Good for him

Some confusion here.  No FG involved.  If they try the extra point and it is blocked and run into the endzone Seattle gets 2 points.  That puts them behind by 7.  Then if they recover an on-side kick they can score and with a PAT put it into overtime or, with a 2 point conversion, win.
I'd rather be a disappointed optimist than a vindicated pessimist. 

Not slowing my roll

It's not often your QB throws 5 TDs and you still lose.  Ouch...
