    "We can't win on the road"

    I've not heard anyone say this in a very long time. Why anyone wants to perpetuate this fallacy of disrespect is beyond me. Though I'm sure a shrink would attribute it to a bi-product of self loathing. You can't turn on any sports related program without hearing people gush all over our Hawks...

    Paul Richardson....

    Agreed. And not only has Richardson's game improved, it's also been modified. He's playing a much different game than the one he played at CU. Probably the thing that has impressed me most about his play this second half. This isn't the game our opponents expected of him, either. Seldom...

    Paul Richardson....

    I also think John Brown is going to be a stud. But his growth may have been retarded a bit had he been drafted to replace Percy Harvin while sharing the same locker room as Percy Harvin. Same can be said for the others. I wouldn't downplay this. Coming into the league as a rookie WR is daunting...

    Ben Maller rips Marshawn

    Thanks...and I do. I've walked away from many gigs that did not allow me full control (of my own opinion). My grammar obviously sucks and my wit obviously abrasive. Every editor's nightmare. I was once doing album reviews for a local paper. Several years after Cobain's death, I wrote a story...

    Ben Maller rips Marshawn

    The media is what you make of it and what you take away from it. Nothing more. Nothing less. I see it as a means of education. IE: Hot's on the left, cold's on the right and shit runs downhill. Now you're a plumber. That I learned from watching TV. BTW...my doctor just went to prison for...

    Are we this generations Patriots?

    I hope to accomplish what NE did, but there is no question in my mind that we are currently superior to those Patriot teams. A huge compliment to Bill and Brady, actually. Didn't the Pats win all 3 of theirs by field goals? We'd be embarrassed with a stat such as that. (j/k).

    better in your opinion beastquake 2 or wilson's td run?

    ^ Neither do I see last night's run as competition for Beastquake. I've heard several people describe it as "better" and I really think they might have only heard about the original. They sure couldn't have seen it.

    better in your opinion beastquake 2 or wilson's td run?

    ^ Quote of the year. As I watched the Lynch run, I knew he would score. Dangerous situation for a defensive player. You have Lynch in Beastmode and he's in primetime. You just know you're going to wind up on the wrong end of tomorrow's Sportscenter lead-in. All you can hear is grunts, growls...

    better in your opinion beastquake 2 or wilson's td run?

    He was Favre like. I'd hate to have to choose between the 2 plays. You much more expect a run like that from a back than you do a play like that from a QB. I think that's why it's such a tough choice. Because of the distance, I suppose I'd give the edge to 'shawn's run but again, I'm glad we...

    Most Dangerous playoff matchups for the Hawks?

    Playing at home, the only team that stands in our way, imo, is Dallas. Not only because they proved they can win in Seattle, but because Romo is playing like I've never seen him play before. Couple that with a world class WR (and TE) and an Oline that can both pass pro and run block...I hate to...

    Extend Marshawn Lynch

    It may have to come down to Largent's milk commercials vs. Marshawn's crotch grab celebrations.

    Paul Richardson....

    Some people can identify talent without the assistance of stats. I'm certain Pe was suggesting Rich is the most talented WR on this team (correct me if I'm wrong). As well he should be. Most had Rich slated to go mid-late 2nd rd but some had him going in the 1st. We don't have another receiver...

    Luke Willson

    I've liked Willson since day 1. Largely because of his speed. Not counting on his blocking, I'd hoped we'd use him much the way we used Jurevicius. But then a funny thing happened, probably thanks to Zach, but last year he looked like he was progressing in every dept. His blocking was very good...

    Extend Marshawn Lynch

    Well maybe you should move to Wisconsin. (I'm confident you get the joke). This Hawk team resembles those Packer teams in many ways and mobility aside, I could even offer a comparison between Starr and Russ. The Packer O line was unquestionably better than ours but "the sweep" aside, they...

    Paul Richardson....

    As of this writing, I'd likely hand that title to ADB. But it appears to me that what we see in ADB is pretty much what we're going to get. Probably reached his ceiling. Richardson always ran good routes but he has added another dimension to his college game. He is getting that swag back that he...
