SEATTLE – Strange night on Thursday at CenturyLink Field.
The Seahawks wore uniforms that fell somewhere between Ecto-Cooler green and nuclear vomit. The Rams arrived with an interim head coach, the former special teams ace John Fassel, who replaced the fired Jeff Fisher earlier this week. The Seahawks were without free safety Earl Thomas (broken leg) and with cornerback Richard Sherman, who aptly termed Thursday Night Football a “poopfest” earlier this week. Fans here even made T-shirts. They read: #poopfest, and they were also weirdo green.
All that was simply backdrop. Then there was the game itself, which unfolded like an episode of Stranger Things.
