In the wake of the loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7, one of the decisions of Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll that has been analyzed, scrutinized, discussed and over-dissected was the choice by Carroll to attempt a 53-yard field goal on 4th & 3 midway through the third quarter. With the weather acting as a hindrance to the field goal attempt, even with Russell Wilson having a sub-par day, many fans would have preferred the Hawks to try to convert a first down.
So, that leads into Pete Carroll’s comments, as reported by FieldGulls own Mookie Alexander on Tuesday, about how the way things unfolded is simply the Seahawks mentality.
