My take on the disaster at Qwest

SeattleSportsBlog: Seahawks lose at home 34-18 to Falcons; possible quarterback controversy

I talk about the loss, lack of using Lynch more, return of Mike Williams and of course the possible end to Matt Hasselbecks Seahawks career at Qwest Field.

What a crappy sports year seeing Griffey decline and leave the way he did to Hasselbeck standing on the sidelines as stupid fans were chanting "Charlie".

Like you I was totally baffled that Lynch, very active in the first drive, sat for the next couple of possessions.
At first I thought he was winded.

The we come out and throw 3 deep balls and go 3 and out.
This team isnt equipt to go deep, 1. We dont have the horses 2. We dont have the protection 3. Matt is certianly not that guy, as much as J. Bates wants him to be.

The ding and dunk and run stradegy worked much better.

Matt 2 TD 8 INT in 3 games, that says it all right there.

During the Holmgren years very rarely did we throw deep. It was always slants, quick outs, hitches, deep slants very rarely would we throw fade routes.

I just don't get it I mean that first drive we made it look easy with short simple throws and Lynch running then we just go away from that rest of the half and even game.

They called SLUGGO about 3-4 times a game under Holmgren when personal was there.....

I just don't get calling a SLUGGO 3 fucking times in a row...

If those fucking zebras learned to spot a ball right, we'd have had a 7-0 lead, momentum, and possession of the ball...Might've changed the whole game.

The Turner spot was close but there was NO WAY Ryan got that inch. He was blown up and pushed backwards.

I think Thurmond was also hurt and I don't know why Cox was on White on so many plays. Put Jennings(who sucks), Babineaux or Thomas on him not some guy who should be on a practice squad.

 

[Seattlehawk94]

Can't put Thomas on him...There would be no help over the top if they did that..

ET was pissed after that game....Talked to him and he made a couple of choice comments about it....

They didn't have enough evidence to overturn the call on the field.

Yeah, I don't understand why they put Cox on White either. I know Jennings sucks, but he's better than Cox.

Because we have a 20 year old who has no business being an NFL coach calling plays like he's playing Madden out there.

Bates is a douche, there is a reason he was no longer with the Broncos and coaching in college last year. Pete needs to find another OC this year.

That may be because they got another douche in there at Denver (McDanniels)... lol

I honestly can't separate what is the OC's fault and what is Hasselbeck or whoever's fault. Some of the calls seem pretty outrageous, but maybe that's not how Bates intended them to be. The only reason I'm sticking up for the guy is because he's putting our 3rd system in 3 years in. I don't really want to go to 4 in 4 years (see: San Francisco 49ers).

I dunno. This is a weird time for the Seahawks. Much like the early 90s. Ruskell really fcked us over.
