    Are people surprised by Kaepernick's success?

    I have to admit that I am surprised and impressed by his performance during the playoffs. I felt that he lacked the poise and situational awareness at this point to win playoff games, b/o his play in the Rams and Seahawk games. I was expecting/rooting for him to melt down during the...

    The Seahawks and the 2013 Free Agent Bargain Basement ...

    Awesome post Hawkscanner. With all the talk focused on Melton and Starks, we do not often hear about the talent available in this price range. It makes me more hopeful that we can address our pass rush issues while perserving our cap surplus. Desmond Bryant seems particularly promising.

    Comparing Harbaugh & Carroll (By Hawk Blogger)

    The point is not necessarily to replace the starters, but to add depth at these positions through the draft. Preferably with players who will be able to replace the current starters when they leave/retire. It is amazing the percentage of snaps the starters take, I think it is over 90% or...

    2012 Hawks, Eerily like the 1991 Cowboys.

    There are definite similarities between Jimmy Johnson and Pete Carroll. Both were great recruiters as college coaches and turned their programs into NFL factories. I think their experiences surrounded by so many NFL prospects gave them insight into who can actually play and what areas they...

    Matt Flynn expected to be cut?

    Do we really need to trade Flynn this offseason? Is it possible to trade him during next season after he gets a chance to show more of his stuff during preseason? If Flynn makes a good showing in the preseason, maybe he becomes more attractive to a team that is just a decent QB away from the...

    Revis Available? Flynn bait?

    How about Flynn + Browner for Revis if Flynn is not enough? I would argue that we have actually have a glut right now at the CB position if Thurmond gets healthy and we could spare a CB like Thurmond, Browner, or Lane. Browner's weakness in deep coverage is tying Earl Thomas down right...

    Can our team overcome the massive amounts of travel?

    You might say that we overcame our morning game woes somewhat in the Chicago game. Yet even in that game, we had an inexplicable lapse on defense after RW's go-ahead drive at the end of the 4th quarter. With less than 30 seconds left, Cutler throws a hail mary to Brandon Marshall while our...

    Bruce Irvin

    I actually think it is better to have Bruce playing every down. Using him only on passing downs probably allowed the OL to get a breather and brace themselves for him. Now Bruce will be a constant force that must be accounted for every down. I can see the OL breaking down from pure fatigue...

    Can our team overcome the massive amounts of travel?

    I could see how that happened in Miami, but how about Detroit and St. Louis? When I look at how we lost the Mia, Det, and Stl games, I can't help but think there is a fatigue factor involved. In the Mia and Det games, our offense showed up and got us the lead in the 4th quarter. Our defense...

    Justin Smith Injury

    Have you read the niners coverage in the bay area media? Their fans are already giving up on the season, which is not a bad idea if you ask me. They are obviously not going to the Super Bowl so they should just lick their wounds and focus on getting healthy for next season. No point in...

    The Nature of Justin Smith's Injury

    What do you think is really going on with Justin Smith? The way Harbaugh is handling it is odd, it seems like he is hiding something. Here is a video with all of Justin Smith's plays during the 3rd Quarter of the Patriots game. Skip to 2:07 of the video to see the play that made him leave...
