    Better than hearing what the Falcons did.

    Freeman is still a terrible blocker.

    The field just looks mustard yellow to me now.

    I'm almost ready to cry. We've lost Keanu, Trufant and Deion. Basically our 3 best on defence.

    Julio's denied 100% catch has completely ruined us.

    Ehh why Ertz is not in his SB form, can't seem to make a good catch this game.

    Only two games in history have ended with a score of 19-18, three games have ended 18-12.

    It at least ended well, there was some good stuff in the fourth quarter and a dramatic ending.

    It is so similar to the last year divisional game, and final play decides the winner.

    About the ugliest opening game you could have. Too many penalities, low scoring/poor play all around, and somehow a bad call regarding a catch. Happy football is back, but that is about the worst start to a season you could have from the viewer side.

    I dunno, I feel like a short WR screen would have done it at the end there, of course you're risking not getting in and time running out, but with 1s left from the 5? Why try the back corner fade which failed last time?

    Congrats to whoever had Julio, I had Devonta Freeman, who of course got injured and the Falcons backup RB scored their one TD. At least he's my flex and not someone important.

    I would have loved if the 52 yarder that was 100% a catch was correctly called, but 18 points is certainly nice.

    Arguable catch. He maybe got it at the end but that would be the only opportunity.

    Nice to see my fantasy name still has relevancy despite the new changed catch rule.

    He had it secured and slid for a bit before he got out of bounds. I don't see how that isn't considered a catch, nor we will ever know what made them say it wasn't.

    Really glad Dan Quinn has Sark, because if he was available after Bevell was fired... Pete Carroll totally woulda hired him.
