Tweets which accompanied a Seattle Seahawks destruction of the Arizona Cardinals

During the Seahawks-Cardinals game I was at a Festivus celebration, so for today, here are a couple dozen great tweets about an absolute domination of the Arizona Cardinals, and a win which puts the Seahawks in the driver’s seat for the No. 1 seed, provided weird stuff doesn’t happen.

Russell Wilson had an incredible game, Marshawn Lynch had an incredible defense, and the Seahawks had an incredible day defensively. Ryan Lindley is still shutout of the endzone in the NFL, and the Seahawks gained nearly 600 yards on offense while Richard Sherman earned his fourth interception.

It’s not to say that the Seahawks weren’t without fault — they had 97 yards in penalties compared to the Cardinals five — but they dominated the Cardinals to an extreme extent.

As long as the Lions and Packers don’t end their game in a tie and the Seahawks win their Week 17 game against the Rams, the Seahawks will earn the No. 1 seed. Were the unthinkable to happen then the Cowboys would be tied with them, and since they beat the Seahawks earlier in the season they’d earn the No. 1 seed.

So here are the tweets.

FWIW, Patrick Lewis handling the snaps with Russell Wilson in pre-game and Lemuel Jeanpierre is working with Tarvaris Jackson.

You want Willson catching like that- not contested- and let him use his speed-

— DAVIS HSU (@DavisHsuSeattle)

Logan Thomas making an appearance for the Cardinals… now back off the field again.

— Curtis Crabtree (@Curtis_Crabtree)

Possible penalty on Sherman for running into kicker waved off after decided he was blocked into kicker. Seattle will start on Az. 39.

— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)

Says something that a team has its $56 Million cornerback rushing punts.

— Sean Kramer (@SKramerWrites)

Who has more arm strength right now, Elway or Manning?

— Matthew Carruth (@msea1)

And now Seattle takes its final timeout of the first half with 5:09 remaining before halftime. Play clock was down to :01.

— Nick Eaton (@njeaton)

Revolutionary thought here, but… Doug Baldwin is pretty good out of the slot. RT for awareness

— Merry Cliffmas (@30AcreFortress)

Lynch right for touchdown with 3:41 to play in first half and Seattle taking control now. This place suddenly really quiet.

— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)

Three Seahawks have rushed for as many or more yards than the Cardinals team rushing total. And Marshawn Lynch isn't even one of them.

— Kenneth Arthur (@KennethArthuRS)

Cards can't win a shootout. They gotta keep the under 20 points to have any chance of winning. Might need a defensive score.

— Sean Eyman (@UHawkFan12)

I don't have a stat sheet. How many non-penalty first downs does Arizona have?

— Sean Kramer (@SKramerWrites)

Everytime I see , I'm reminded how passionate he is about being out there. Was blown away during preseason production mtgs w/ him.

— Aaron Levine (@AaronQ13Fox)

2-minute warning. Cardinals have 3rd & 20 on their 35 and 2 timeouts remaining.

— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks)

Seattle now has just Doug Baldwin, Paul Richardson, Ricardo Lockette and Bryan Walters available.

— Curtis Crabtree (@Curtis_Crabtree)

With Kearse out, the Hawks are going to need Wes Walters to step up big.

— Dr. Loomis Hamilton (@loomishamilton)

Pete needs to run out in the floor and yell at these refs til he gets a technical. Maybe even ejected

— Matt Mikolas (@Slickhawk12)

Coyle now with the unnecessary roughness. That's ten penalties in this half. SHOULD I CALL OFF THIS DRINKING GAME??? hahahaha

— Liz Mathews 710 ESPN (@Liz_Mathews)

Richardson should've gotten out of bounds on the prior catch, but if he shakes the one guy it's likely a TD. Imagine that was the thought

— Merry Cliffmas (@30AcreFortress)

Half ends with a Seattle penalty for illegal man downfield. 11 penalties in half for Seattle. More important, Seattle leads 14-3.

— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)

Flag on the play, which was a screen pass to Bryan Walters. Flag is on Seattle for ineligible receiver downfield. So, that's halftime.

— Nick Eaton (@njeaton)

Canadian tight end celebrates a touchdown in American football by imitating an English soccer player. It's like the UN of sports plays.

— John Boyle (@johnpboyle)

Everytime I drink aftershock. The Seahawks score. I'm not going to remember tonight.

— Mo Mo Grenadier (@TheMattHolt)

Wilson throwing a TD pass to Wilson is the wildest thing I've ever seen. The ball is even made by Wilson. My mind is about to explode, man

— Jon Gruden (@Faux_Gruden)

Arizona punts an fans are beginning to stream into the Glendale night, Seattle leading 21-6 with 10:30 left and in firm control.

— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)

Arizona will also have to battle the after seahawks effect next week 10 teams in a row lose after being defeated by the Seahawks

— joseph muldoon (@josephmuldoon)

That was cute, Patrick Peterson. But you are dealing with Marshawn Lynch.

— SI_DougFarrar (@SI_DougFarrar)

MARSHAWN LYNCH YOU ARE UNBELIEVABLE OHHHHH MYYYY WORDDDD. RUN OF THE YEAR

— DeAndre Yedlin (@yedlinny)

Wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. wow. Why do I only have 140 characters? Wow.

— Aaron Levine (@AaronQ13Fox)

Marshawn Lynch with another run, and he finished it by grabbing himself as he dove backwards in the end zone.

— Jerry Brewer (@JerryBrewer)

. is the absolute best! I hope he knows how much we love and appreciate him in Seattle. !

— Sonics Faithful (@Jome20)

That's as close to an encore performance of the BeastQuake run as you're ever going to get.

— Curtis Crabtree (@Curtis_Crabtree)

Serious, watch this Marshawn Lynch run right freaking now. http://t.co/k7C9bdFHMY pic.twitter.com/VbQGLeFd2a

— SB Nation (@SBNation)

Well Ryan Lindley isn't going to the Hall of Fame like Arians pushed. But Lynch might. And a pic of him grabbing his stuff should go too

Grabbing nuts, diving into an end zone. The definitive Seattle pose.

Air every Marshawn Lynch carry on NBC.

— Zach Whitman (@zjwhitman)

Pick by Sherman on an errant throw from Lindley.

— Stephen Cohen (@scohenPI)

Sherman interception will stand as holding on Arizona is declined.

— Bob Condotta (@bcondotta)

That’s 4 interceptions this season for Richard Sherman.

— Jerry Brewer (@JerryBrewer)

Al Michaels calling Richard Sherman's INT was roughly equivalent to Joe Buck calling anything.

— Merry Cliffmas (@30AcreFortress)

The scary thing is Turbin (28), Michael (20), and Wilson (55) combined for 103 rushing yards in first quarter. Without Lynch!

— Ian Furness (@IanKJR)

Yeah but Patrick Peterson is probably better

— Matthew Carruth (@msea1)

If you wanna win a Super Bowl, you gotta come to a city you clown on, where it rains, where coffee happens. Suck on that. Seattle all day.

— Seattle Sportsnet (@alexSSN)

Holy cow. Ryan Lindley was 18 for 44.

— John Boyle (@johnpboyle)

Hell of a job by the hogs up front and Tom Cable.

— Dave Softy Mahler (@Softykjr)

As of now -Seattle has #1 Seed
