Percy Harvin Owners
Seahawks all-purpose wide receiver Percy Harvin finished their Week 5 win in Washington with a measly 34 yards on six touches, giving him only 76 total yards over the last two games. However, things could have been astronomically better for owners seeking a massive day from their WR if his team didn’t commit penalties that nullified three different TDs.
To be fair, one of those flags was called a false start on a 26-yard TD catch but it appears that referee Jeff Triplette meant to call an illegal motion on Harvin. However, the other two were both on offensive lineman James Carpenter, negating a 16-yard TD run in the second quarter and 41-yard TD catch in the fourth. The first flag was for holding, which appeared to be a legitimate call but still devastating nonetheless, but the second was tossed for Carpenter hitting an opponent while he was on the ground…
Percy Harvin owners truly did get screwed on that one.
