on point #1 i actually questioned why
seattle challenged the (admittedly questionable) spot earlier in the drive? it seemed that the odds of both winning the challenge AND then stopping denver on 4th and two centimeters weren't worth a timeout that could be crucial to respond to a denver fg? although as it played out, denver took forever to even cross midfield, so....
on point # 2 the odds of picking up the 4th and 5 and then making a 50 something yard fg were probably much better than the odds of a 64 yarder, although (outside of the colts) these kickers today are pretty amazing.....
