It's an EXCITING Time to be a Seahawks Fan

[Joey Gladstone 33]

This was Bradford after that game

 

Holy crap their offense sucks! If the ball wasnt going to Jackson or Lloyd, then nothing was happening. Pettis sucks (which is kind of sad, liked the kid in college).

 

And Fox sure had a hard-on for the Rams defense, who played ok. I get it, Chris Long's dad works for the network, but playing against 2nd and 3rd string linemen he was SUPPOSED to have a good game. He's a solid player, another Grant Wistrom.

 

Also, Rich Gannon looks like a badass with a beard.

 

Back to the Hawks, still WAY too many stooopid, dumbassed penalties. It's B.S. when veterans like Gallery are committing them. Watching, you really get to a point where you are shocked a play isn't flagged.

 

Our defense really enjoys hitting. Its fun to watch. Clemons and Browner both had nice games.

 

He wasn't seeing a whole lot of daylight, but Lynch ran like a beast. He broke a lot of tackles.

 

All in all, it was a game we should have won, but it's fun to watch a Seattle physically beat up on somebody. That's something I can really get into.

[Fantasy Noob 10]

The defense was our strength going into the season but I am really impressed with its play it is much better than I anticipated, our secondary in particular is a lot better than I gave it credit for. I figured we would get lit up at corner but Sherman and Browner are doing an above average job. I still would like to see an elite/fast twitch CB added to the secondary but its not a pressing need at all.

 

We desperately need someone besides Clemons that can consistently rush the QB though. If we could just get some consistent pass rush pressure oppisite Clemons the defense would be top 5 material.

 

I hate to say it but if we can't get a top QB prospect, I would be ok with another O-lineman in the first, we are just having such terrible luck with our O-line it's unbelievable. It feels like a waste of a pick with 4 of the five slots all top 2 round picks and Gallery a big free agent signing but we need some darn stability on that line.

 

We desperately need a QB prospect behind Tavaris, I am ok with Tavaris for a couple more years and I never in a million years would have believed I would say that.

That was the lone, glaring problem with the defense yesterday. Other then Clemons, I think I saw Brock get one pressure and that was it. Bradford had plenty of time, if he had anybody else to throw to other then Jackson and Lloyd we could have been in trouble.

 

If we keep working on the pass rush and can land a good rookie QB, we could be in business!

[Kopy 559]

Give me a QB, CB and a DE in the first 3 rounds of the draft and they can draft all punters the rest of the way for all I care.

(I just went with the draft, and stayed away from Free Agents because I'd like to stay with the youth movement program Carroll and Schnieder have going on.)

 

A stud QB to replace Whitehurst.

A stud CB to replace Trufant.

And another really good DE to go along with clemons.

 

And these guys will be going places for years to come.

[phillybear 366]

A win over the Redskins would put the Seahawks within 2 games of a wildcard spot, with tie breakers to still play out.

 

Not that it could ever happen.

This might be the first prime time game I don't watch this year. Having a hard time justifying it.

Me too <-----Eagles fan

[diomed1 0]

I don't think I can watch, but I know I will. First off, I am a Seahawk fan. Have been since 1977. So..

Secondly, I have Lynch going as my RB2....

As far as watching the Hawks go, since I live in Michigan and haven't seen one game, I am very anxious to see Kam Chancellor lay some hits.

 

Other than that..This game is going to be ugly indeed.

[Honey Badger 0]

Any advice from Seahawks fans? I just picked up Doug Baldwin and due to injuries, I have to choose between him, Riley Cooper, and Johnny Knox. Right now, I'm actually leaning towards Baldwin since the Eagles secondary is depleted, they're playing at home, and Sydney Rice (shocker) is out.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

I'd start Baldwin, but do whatever you want, because Honey Badger dont give a fock.

 

And we just can't buy a break on the injury front. With Tavaris behind center, Rice wasn't so crucial to this season as he is to our future when we finally have a real quarterback. Sadly, all these concussions could derail his career. That was the assumed risk when he was signed though.

 

WAIT! I thought our good commissioner had wiped out concussion problems league-wide. Isn't that the explanation for these new poosay ass rules his officials are enforcing?!

Much obliged. I'm rolling with Baldwin this week. I have a hunch he may be good for 4-6 receptions, 70 yds, and a TD. The Eagles are mailing it in at this point.

You think the Niners will lose to the Rams?!?!?

Who cares about the niners or rams?

[phillybear 366]

Crunching the numbers and looking at upcoming games, Seattle can sneak into the playoffs at 9-7 or even 8-8. Well, 3 of the 4 remaining games are divisional, with SF near the end of the season, so they may be resting starters at that point. The other key game is vs Chicago, without Cutler nor Forte.

 

Off the top of my head, trail by 2 games with 4 to go...

Need Giants lose at least one game (we beat them head to head this year)

Need to beat Chicago for head to head, and for Chicago to lose one more game

Need Atlanta to collapse. Atlanta beat us head to head.

Need Detroit to collapse.

 

If 3 out of 4 of these happen, Seattle gets a wildcard. The loss to Washington sucks really bad right now. St Louis coming up next.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

If we can rub out the Niners, this will have been a pretty satisfying season, playoffs or not.

 

Is a shame Mutler and Forte got hurt. I would have enjoyed Kadafiing Sweetness with a victory over the Chicago Bruins. Next year of course, he's retreated for the remainder of this season.

[phillybear 366]

So, I am waiting for Sweetness_34 the last couple of weeks to explain the home loss to Kansas City, and the collapse of the Bears to Tim Tebow and Matt Prater, and deny how the Seahawks seem to have a better track to make the playoffs than the Bears.

 

And....go........

 

Ok. He wasn't ready. Annnnnnnnnnd go.........Check One Two, Pfffft, Checking, One Two....

 

 

Um, the microphone seems to be working. Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd go.......

 

[Joey Gladstone 33]

Maybe he'll pop up out of his hole after the Seahawks are done buttfocking the corpse of the Chicago Bear's 2011 season?

[12th Man 884]

Sweetness is gone for the year...

[Joey Gladstone 33]

Alright! Due to an ESPN stat correction, I am now up 14 points and my opponent has Steven Jackson going tonight.

 

Red, Heater and Kam, set your phasers to kill!

So, let's revisit this stuff. If Seattle wins their last 3 games vs Chicago, SF (home), and Arizona.

 

Chicago lost one more game. Now, should Seattle beat them next week, it's tied up and we have the tie breaker based on head to head.

 

Either the Giants or Cowboys will win the NFC East. They play each other again, and Seattle would have the tie breaker on either (Giants head to head, Dallas conference record).

 

So, the trick is to pass Atlanta or Detroit. Atlanta beat the Seahawks earlier this year, so they need to lose out. Probably not going to happen as they play Jacksonville next week. Detroit is the key. They play at Oakland, Green Bay, at San Diego. Three pretty good teams. If the Seahawks win out, they have the tie breaker on Detroit based on conference record.

 

So, Seattle wins out, and Detroit drops two games. In the playoffs.

Go seattle. Boo Detroit. Gotcha!!!

 

 

 

Did you guys see that p.i. call that gave the rams first and goal at the 1 against Bronner. Horible call, the guy didn't even touch him.

 

The CB's are playing good for kids. I still think we need a draft stud to go with Bronner,Marshall,Thurman and Lewis though.

A true stud to go with those kids, plus our safeties. And that is a very good secondary.

Bill Levy..enough said. All Hawk fans hate the guy..

 

Speaking of Browner(and the Safeties too)

Check this out. My link

Seems Seattle has some pretty awesome talent at DB..Especially Safety.

I think the Hawks playoff chances were killed when they choked away that 10 point lead in the 4th qtr to the Skins a few weeks ago. Don't think they are winning out. Either 49ers or Cards will beat them...............I don't think 8-8 gives a chance at playoffs. Lions will find 1 win.

 

But enjoy the gift of Caleb Hanie this week. Just don't let it raise your hopes too high.

Was that the drive that was further extended by Sherman's taunting penalty on 3rd down?

 

The resulting Jackson TD knocked me out of the playoffs

Where are all the big mouth Bear fans this week? What's the matter? Hannie got you all by the sack? Don't come in here next week if the Bears win banging your chests. You had a chance to call your shot prior to the game and instead tucked your balls and ran, especially that Sweetness doosh!

[SaintsInDome2006 420]

Ok Hawks fans, how are you liking your DST at the Bears this week?

 

Considering them vs TEN @ Indy.

They'll point to recent injuries and blame them. Never mind the injuries Seattle has weathered this season, or the fact that almost the entire offensive line is out for the year.

 

Chicago will still be getting their asses beat by a Tavaris Jackson lead team.

Should be a strong play. Even against Indy, I don't trust the Titans defense.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

I can just see Sweetness sitting around, all ready to make his triumphant FFToday return when the Bears were up 7.

 

better hope Cutler and Forte can stay healthy next year. Ruskell is already sapping the talent.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

How the hell has Browner not made an NFL team before this year? It's crazy to me. Especially when some 5'7 nothing like Alphonso Smith has had multiple draft picks invested in him.

[phillybear 366]

Please, remember to root for Oakland over Detroit. Playoff spot is at stake.

Seattle got the win. Detroit is down nearly 2 touchdowns to Oakland with less than 8 minutes to go in the game. Sh!t. This is so bizarre.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

I wasn't worried about Detroit doing their part. They've been backsliding for weeks and their fluke start to the season is a distant memory.

 

Next week will be tough, even at home. The Cardinals have been chippy lately too and would love to play the spoiler at home. If we beat the Niners week 17 would be the very definition of a trap game, especially for a young, aggressive team that leads the league in idiotic penalties.

 

I'm not trying to be a downer. It's still definitely the most exciting this division (in it's current form) has been.....ever.

[phillybear 366]

I did not realize that Calvin Johnson pushed off soooooooooooooooooooooooo much. Wow. I can't believe no officials call him for the obvious penalty. Every. Single. Play. Fock. You.
