Coming in I was hoping for the deepest, fastest, most interchangeable defensive front in the league but it hasn't quite happened yet because of the injuries and the Irvin suspension. Now that they are all back, we get to see if their offseason focus pays off. Just caught this article earlier...
Putting them in this early I can kinda see it, or see why people are doing it. Looking at their competition in the AFC, the only teams I see even having a shot at running with them are KC, the Ravens, Indy, or New England. The Patriots don't have the offensive firepower they've had in the past...
The only thing I can think of that keeps Michael down behind Turbin on the depth chart and is not gettng any snaps so far is his pass blocking. When you consider how much better he played in preseason compared to Turbin, that's really the only thing that's left. Not knocking Turbin's play at...
Maybe, but maybe also they radically underachieved last year. They are playing hard and fast and forcing turnovers. Not bad for a bunch of "old guys". During the Dolphins game they were talking about how they get you down early and get you always playing them from behind. That's something...
Nah I was wrong about AJ being uncovered. It looked like ET picked him up after Kam cheated up to the line. So well done by the whole Legion of Boom on that play.
Looking back on Sherman's pick 6, I think it was Kam who made the whole thing happen. He doesn't get the credit because he didn't get the pick but it was him cheating up to the line pre-snap and taking a perfect line to Schaub that forced him into the errant throw. If Kam gets picked up or is...
They concern me quite a bit more than Detroit does, or Green Bay. Mainly because all else being equal, Brees > Stafford. But all else hasn't been equal. The Saints have been better than Detroit on both sides of the ball so far this season.
They are definitely a team the Hawks don't want to...
Mine too. But so far it's just been a lot of the same old, typically underachieving. I know the Browns have a decent up and coming defense but only putting up 6 points against them is shocking to me.
The Good: The Hawks faced adversity head on and came back from the dead to win. Their resiliency is off the charts in how they can get beat in every aspect of the game and still come out on top.
The Bad: The fact that they got beat in every aspect of the game. Comebacks like that creates...
I never paid much attention to the discrepancy in crowd noise until recently after the two Niner fans complained about the noise in Seattle and I listened to what they had to say on a local radio talk show. While watching that Colts/Niners game the other day I really noticed for the first time...
The Niner fan base seems to be pretty divided on whether that's a good thing or bad.
Seems to me like regardless of who's the better QB, Smith might have been the better fit in their system. At least it's looking that way right now.
No pro bowlers and three backups starting. I hope the Hawks' defense brings it because all indications are the offense is going to get it handed to them without an O-line. If the D can keep Houston under 15 they have a shot.
I seem to remember a lot of people were actually picking the Rams to win that game, which shows people might be jumping the gun a bit on all this about how the Niners are crumbling. All that really happened was the Niners beat up on an inferior team. That's all the Hawks did too last Sunday...
Are they wearing the greys this Sunday? The only game I can remember them wearing the greys last year is the Buffalo game and they blew the lid off the place.
But also, on the tangible side, a win vs the Texans, on their home field, with a woefully depleted O-line would establish a new benchmark for the Hawks and put to rest all the "Hawks suck on the road" talk.
To all the "Seahawks suck on the road" people out there, I've been responding by...
That's right. I think they've only been 3-0 three times and lost the 4th in each occasion.
The superstitious side of me is wants to see a win in this next game bigtime. It could create a bit of mojo for the rest of the season.
Never been 4-0 and never won a Super Bowl. Maybe if they break...
Not only that but I heard Unger's status is questionable for that game too with an arm injury. If both Unger and Breno don't play, look out below. It could be like Tarvaris Jackson vintage early 2011 when he got sacked like 15 times in 3 games.
About those fumbles, do you remember roughly when those happened? I'd like to go back and see those plays again.
As far as being an awesome mobile QB, I don't dispute that. I'm guessing he's probably going to be doing that a lot more in the next game to compensate for the onslaught he's...
That's the part that has me the most concerned. For whatever reason he's been misfiring quite a few times, especially early in games. Overthrowing, underthrowing, throwing behind guys, you name it. I might have mentioned it before but even the long throw to Baldwin that went 55 yards or...
