    Final Three

    I believe this is the first time in franchise history we are among the last 3 teams to lose or tie a game in an NFL season. Long may it last.

    Enthusiasm

    Where is the enthusiasm around here? We had an early east-coast conference game against a team picked for the playoffs, and came away with a dominant win in which our QB surpassed 30,000 passing yards and 4,000 rushing yards. We know our division is going to be tough sailing, so every game...

    DK Metcalf

    DK is on track to set a new Seahawks' rookie receiving record for yards, but I want to shed some light on his run blocking as well. On rushing downs, he's practically another lineman out there, and it's creating big holes that Penny for one has been exploiting. With Fant as an extra lineman on...

    Mr Unpopular

    I get that he's an unpopular player for many because he had some fumble problems and because him getting the ball represents everything everyone hates about the Carroll/Schotty game plan, however... Chris Carson deserves some props today. He beasted for 124 on the ground an another 35 in the...

    Carson is Mann

    While respecting completely the awesomeness of Wilson and Wagner, I just want to say that Chris Carson was a man out there tonight. His touchdown run where he simply squat-lifted two KC defenders was worthy of BeastMode in his prime. You gotta want it, and he just wanted it more than they did...

    Hypothetical: We lock up #5 seed. Do we rest people?

    If we win and Minny loses this week, I read we'll lock up the #5 seed and can't be moved out of it. If that happens, do we rest people against KC and AZ? I could see resting Baldwin to let him recover more, and I could see Carson taking a break so Penny can have more reps. Of course the...

    Moral Victory II

    Yes, I acknowledge that a moral victory is still a loss. However... We're playing the Rams very tough and kept in reach in both games. Considering our circumstances, we've done well. We know we don't have the horses on the OL to keep Wilson clean against the Rams' defensive attack. We don't...

    On the bright side, it was the best game to lose.

    Arizona lost a home conference game. San Francisco lost a conference game. We lost an away game to an out-of-conference team. As far as playoff implications go, this was the best possible game to lose.

    Remember the Amazon Storefront

    I figure there will be quite a few injuries as people pull muscles and ligaments with their knee-jerk reactions, and could even break bones falling off the bandwagon (although I am guessing so many of you were not so high on the bandwagon as to be in real danger). So I just wanted to remind...

    Just going to toss this out there...

    I see Dave Damashek thinks the Seahawks are ready for a shake-up "from the head coach on down" so we should go out with a bang this year. I just want to say that I as a Seahawks fan want Pete Carroll coaching my Seahawks for as long as Pete Carroll wants to be a head coach at the NFL level. I...

    Preseason Power Rankings - Not What but Why

    I looked at the pre-season Power Rankings on NFL.com. I know I shouldn't because it's all rubbish wrapped in speculation and tied up with the bow of overblown expectations. So just ignore the rank number; it's completely meaningless. However... This time they included, for the Seahawks, this...

    RW and PFF Foundation Draft

    So PFF, for better or worse, produced a "foundation draft" which is a fictional exercise in which the league was starting from scratch today, and everyone in the world was eligible to be drafted. Age counts, contracts don't (no cap). Players can be soured from any sport...

    Kearse visited by Washington national Guard after practice

    From Seahawsk FB site: "For his support and charitable work for the US Armed Forces, Jermaine Kearse was surprised with a special delivery from the U.S. Army via the Washington National Guard after today's practice." https://www.facebook.com/Seahawks/video ... 880466722/ Will pro-military...

    Looking forward to Cleveland in a couple weeks

    I'm travelling to the land of rifles and rednecks this weekend and as part of my trip will be at the Cleveland game on the 21st. If anyone wants to meet up or punch me in the face or whatever (prefer not as my family will be with me), send me a PM and I'll give you my seat location.

    Les Mouflons - an early acid test?

    We've all had our say about the cuts and practice squad, and it's Wednesday here already, so it's about time we start talking about the upcoming game. The Rams have potentially benefited from a bevvy of first-round picks via the Griffin trade, and continually picking early. I say potentially...

    Why 11/12 balls?

    I was considering why 11 of the 12 balls were under-inflated, considering that the 11 were grossly under-inflated. Why would one lone ball have retained its pressure? Was it used to fool the testing process? Unlikely - that would require agents of the Patriots playing sleight-of-hand with the...
