I haven't said that Wilson made a horrible play there, because it's a pretty tough one either way, but you CANNOT credit Wilson for the tie at the end of the first half, and then exonerate him for the pick at the end.
The same aggressive play-calling is what resulted in both plays, the good at the end of the first half and the bad at the end of the game.

I absolutely can ...
Seattle had a timeout ... there was absolutely NO GOD DAMN REASON to throw the ball there. Not EVER. You have THREE downs to gain 1 YARD. You can run the read option on 3rd down.
There is 2 PLAYCALLS you can make on 2nd down. And both of them involve a heavy set ... you either hand the ball to Lynch and hope he scores, or you run the play-action from the 1 any other team runs in these situations that usually results in a TE wide open for a TD
YOU NEVER SPREAD OUT THE OFFENSE AND DESIGN A SCREEN PASS TO BE THROWN TO A WR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD WHERE THE ENTIRE DEFENSE IS
I mean, come the **** on.
