I’m SO sick of the criticism of Carroll for his persona. If any of us had 1/10 the passion for what we do that he does, not only would we benefit, but the world around us would as well.

I challenge anyone to watch the film from that game and show me a team that was trying to embarrass the other.

That was the seventh best defense that gave up 58 points to the Seahawks

Sounds to me that the sports media must have too little to talk about if they make a big deal out of this

Nah, Uncle Pete, it’s all good.

Do whatcha gotta do to get your point across, and keep winning.

As an Arizona fan, I have sat through many many terrible losses but this one took the cake. I was actually rooting for Seattle to run the score up in the 4th quarter. Maybe I felt like the Cards deserved the embarrassment, maybe it was the whiskey talking. Whatever it was, this team needs an enema.

Wow, you all think Seattle is a great team because they pounded the worst team in the league.

They still may not even make the playoffs even with the Green Bay gift.

Pete is not a top level coach either.

Solution for Cardinals is simple: Draft a QB in the early 1st round, instead of drafting them in the 4th round or signing unproven FA QBs such as Kolb.

That’s what every other team (except Patriots) did to acquire a franchise QB. Can’t understand why the Cardinals can’t figure it out lol.

Let’s think back a few years when Prince ( poop pants ) Pete was the coach at USC. Due to excellent coaching/recruiting he was able secure one Reggie Bush who under his watch was able to win the Heisman trophy. Win a couple championships. To bad it was found out while on Prince (poop pants) Pete’s watch Reggie did not get free tatoos, or a free car, no free clothes. Nope he got a house, a friggen house for his mom in SoCal. So when the flames start nipping PppP feet he bails. So now that Reggie Bush had to give back his Heisman. What happens you might ask to the involved parties? USC is disgraced, Reggie Bush is disgraced (although he was hitting on Kim K so I will give him that) and Prince (poop pants) Pete gets another chance to coach in the NFL which is kind of fitting as no one outside of Seattle cares about Seattle. He is a disgrace as a coach and even worse, a disgrace as a human being.

He was just showing what Flynn can do because he’ll probably be traded this offseason, we all know Russell Wilson is the future for the seahawks.

There is no level of sports in the world that should get butthurt about having the score run up on them. From pop-warner, to powderpuff, to highschool, college, and pro.

There are valuable lessons in getting beaten like you stole something, just as there are valuable lessons in losing a tight one, and winning by both margins.

The Pro level is the most laughable. These guys came from college, where the culture was to run up the score with the hopes of getting the best bowl bid, and then they are getting paid to now do a job.

This should be a non-issue. “We’re living in a society of men, who have been raised by women, the last thing we need is another woman.” Start acting like it men.

How does he feel about getting credit for winning a football game that the whole world recognizes his team didnt earn? Perhaps there is a limit to his empathy – if not his integrity…

I don’t see any problem with them scoring as many points as possible. I also won’t see a problem when they have it done to them in the playoffs.

This is one of the most ridiculous statements I have ever read. Seattle hasn’t lost by more than 1 score all season and has beaten 6 teams that are still in playoff contention. No one in the NFL is blowing this team or this defense out.

Hey stinky Pete dont you remember when you dropped the whats your deal bomb for the same treatment?

Big difference between doing that to a team full of kids and a team full of millionaire professionals. The Cards ran the score up on themseves anyway.

Don’t hate the Seahawks, it’s the Cardinals that should apologize to their fans.

If Pete Carroll wanted to run up the score yesterday, the Seahawks would have scored 75 points comfortably. That sounds insane, but it really was the case.

Kurt Warner definitely belongs in the Hall of Fame, if only for making the Cardinals competitive, much less bringing them to a Super Bowl.

Bush league. They were running up the score on a division opponent. No reason to throw into the end zone on 4th and 23 (from outside the 30) when up 40+ points in the 4th quarter. That is much different than what the Patriots are accused of. It is the responsibility of the defense to make a stop but that play was unsportsmanlike.”

Lol I guess they could have just kicked a field goal

I played football in high school. We once had a team beat 42 to 0 in the first quarter and eventually won the game 69 to 0. we ran the veer in highschool which is basically a running offense. And, we actually started working on our passsing game which wasn’t that good. I remember thinking that if our coaches wouldn’t have stopped us from running the ball we would have went for 90 that game. The problem is when your running the ball and scoring it really hard not to score a lot of points because there’s nothing else you can do to stop yourselves from scoring. I didn’t see the game but the states tell me the Cards quit. And, it’s not the hawk responsiblity to stop themselves. From time to time this sort of thing happens. But, Pete do everyone a favor. Don’t try to explain it. It only makes it look worse.

This was a great read……….It is nice to have to put up with someone saying the Hawks were soooooooo good that they should have played less than their best to be nice to the opposing team. It has been a long time in coming……

Go Hawks!

I don’t think coach Carroll could have said it any better. It’s the NFL, not church league. It’s these players jobs to compete at a high level. Plus you have to realize that when the second and third string guys get in there, they are trying to show the coach what they can do in game time situations, so they are obviously going to go balls out. If they Cardinals complain about the score, maybe they should have not turned the ball over so many times.

Throwing on 4th & 23 is unsportsmanlike?

You do realise the other option was a field goal to make it 61 – 0, don’t you?

What would you have called that in your armchair wisdom? Fair play?

It would be awesome if the people who called Pete an “idiot” had anything to back it up. NFL coach making millions leading a team that’s gotten better every year after completely overhauling the roster to the tune of only 4 or 5 guys left from the team he took over.

Rookie sack leader everyone said was a reach. Rookie QB everyone said was too small who should be in the conversation for OROY. Rookie MLB who will probably win DROY. Richard Sherman 5th round pick and one of the best shut-down corners in the NFL, if not the best.

What a total idiot.

Average distance to go when they threw in the second half was 13 yards.
