Twitter reacts to Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals tie

The NFL’s primetime ratings dip has been the byproduct of a myriad of issues, but one of the primary factors has been the wide margins of victories. On Sunday night, the NFL hoped that the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals, two playoff-caliber teams in the NFC West, would provide them with a contested game and they got their wish.

However, what they didn’t get was particularly good football. After 75 minutes of borderline torture, the game ended in a 6-6 tie. Both of the teams starting kickers missed kicks inside the final few minutes from within 30 yards. And Twitter reacted in kind hopping onto the bad football bandwagon to watch the stretch run of one of the most painful football games in recent memory (the 12 combined points scored made it the lowest-scoring overtime tie in the history of the league).

Here are some of the best tweets that we could find from Sunday’s brouhaha.

And perhaps the most appropriate of all comes from one of the men tasked with ushering us through that waterboarding, NBC lead analyst Cris Collinsworth.
