The second team defense has a shot to come up with a big stop after the untimely fumble by Forsett. Kevin Hobbs just made a nice play to almost pick off a pass. Man, I only got two sentences written before the defense forced fourth down. Chargers are punting... from the 40? I guess that's right in that in-between area, just outside of field goal range.
No magic for Justin Forsett tonight, running the ball or returning kicks.
Hobbs just made what looked like a beautiful play to break up a long pass in the endzone, but a flag was thrown. He touched the receiver but he didn't redirect the receiver at all. That hurts for the game, but that should grade out well for Hobbs. The Seahawks really have great depth at corner right now. No more signing of forest rangers (or whatever) to play significant time in playoff games.
Hobbs' penalty just led to a touchdown. Chargers going for two to avoid overtime... successful. Damn. Well, two and a half minutes are left to drive for a game-winning field goal. That's got to be doable, right?
ESPN just showed that the Chargers have seven TEs and WRs that are 6'2" or taller. Damn.
The two and a half minute drill just turned into a two minute drill after a single (short) play ran the clock all the way down to the two minute warning. If the Seahawks don't have at least two timeouts, that probably was a bad decision.
I'm surprised to find myself thinking this, but I kind of feel like Charlie Frye would have a better chance at completing this drive than Wallace (if only because Wallace wasn't expecting to play). And, as I write that, Wallace takes a sack and throws an interception. Tough way for a game to end, but it's just the preseason.
And, to add insult to injury, ESPN just said Lofa Tatupu may have a sprained knee. Not good. The games over, so it's time to go find out what's been reported since the game ended 3.5 hours ago. I'll summarize my thoughts on this game probably tomorrow.
