Television cameras caught Seattle Seahawks receiver Doug Baldwin pushing offensive line coach Tom Cable on the sidelines during Sunday's game against the New York Giants, an incident Baldwin apologized for after the contest.

The Seahawks scored just three points in the first half of the game, leaving "Angry Doug" frustrated.

"I lost my cool. It's 100 percent my fault," Baldwin said in his postgame press conference. "At that moment, I was really frustrated with the offense as a whole. Not the coaching staff, but the players."

"Y'all know I love Cable to death," Baldwin added, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN. "Me and Cable have one of the best relationships from coach to player. That was 100 percent my fault. I already apologized to him."

The Seahawks rebounded by scoring 21 points in the second half, on their way to a 24-7 victory. Baldwin finished the game with nine catches for 92 yards and a third-quarter touchdown.
