BURNNNNNNN!!!!! :3-1:
(please note that I am drunk, and instigation will most likely by my motive tonight)
Drunk? No wonder you said McCoy is better than AP (AD). ; )
U are just different than me, my expectation was not to dominate this ballgame, it was to win. They met my expectations. If they didn't meet yours that's up to uHawkWow":15e4kn47 said:Pandion Haliaetus":15e4kn47 said:You'd think that reading half the comments on this board.
You'd think the sky is falling, again.
Poor us from winning the road opener after a long travel in 90 degree heat vs a good Panthers team with a team that replaced much of its veteran presence last year or experienced players with youth:
M-Rob, Leon, Moffitt, Omiyale, Edwards, Martin
Branch, Jones, McDonald, Hill, and Trufant
Plus, Clemons, Avril, Irvin, and Browner were out.
17 new players made this team which is pretty crazy turnover for a team that won 11 games and played in
2 playoff games.
Seahawks have the 4th youngest roster in the NFL. Growing pains and learning curves.
Sorry, the Seahawks didn't dominate according to your plans
Sorry, the O-line was sluggish due to extreme weather conditions and got dominated by a legit Defensive Front 7 who could be the best in show as long as their LBs stay healthy.
An Oline that has typically struggled out the gates only for Cable to light a fire under their asses and get it rolling. And an Oline that tends to struggle vs big physical Dlines that bring it physically.
Sorry, the Seahawks won... maybe we should have lost to make all the whining and crying legit.
Making so many negative assumptions after the first game, the first game, I mean seriously the first game.
I bet so many of us, 12s, threw in the towel after first game in 2005 or after 4 games in 2005. How did that turn out?
Oh...stop it.
We are a franchise that has been bitten in the ass more times than I care to count. We are all great fans with great expectations. When our team plays to our expectations, we celebrate. When they don't, we piss and moan. So what? This is a message board. A place to voice concerns and frustrations as much as it is to exclaim excitement.
Because you are upbeat and full of rainbows and unicorns don't make you any more, or less, a fan than the guy that says...I'm pissed and demand domination. Please note: This post is not (necessarily) entirely directed at you. There's too many people wanting to question the fanhood of another because they think that makes them Superfan or something. It don't. It makes them more like Eddie Haskell on leave it to beaver.

The Seahawks played hard and won for us in a tough game, some played better than others, and some important ones didn't play at all, and all some people can do sit there and talk trash about these players who are doing all the work.
We just need to chill, relax, and as they say on How I Met Your Mother, eat a sandwich and be happy the Seahawks won their first game of the season even though they were far from clicking. And know that there is plenty of time to iron out the wrinkles and for the youth to gain experience and learn their lessons.

You are a good fan.
I am unfamiliar with the 2nd part of your post. Please tell me more about this meeting someone's mother for a sandwich. Sounds wild.
davidonmi":3h6jquov said:but u can't use transitive property for the NFL. Just because we played poorly vs carolina doesn't mean we're going to play poorly vs the niners. Not every game do we play our best game. We didn't play our best with some adverse conditions and we won, be happy. I believe based on last year we will play better next week. What happens one week doesn't automatically happen the next week, that's not how the nfl worksakseahawkfan":3h6jquov said:No we didn't lose. If we played a better team, on the road, on the east coast, in an early game, we would have mostly likely in my opinion lost. We did enough to win, I'm happy about that. But I really don't understand fans that are satisfied with such a performance simply because we won. Do fans satisfied with that performance actually believe we can compete with teams like SF or the Eagles if that's the best we've got? You think we can win consistently without Lynch and with Wilson running for his life on just about every pass play? The Seahawks are a better team than the way they performed against the Panthers. What is so wrong about a fan saying that about their team?
Well, it sounds like your feelings are hurt.Cartire":8znciwgz said:HawkWow":8znciwgz said:Pandion Haliaetus":8znciwgz said:Please I'm far from upbeat and rainbows. I didn't like the game one bit.

Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:Could you at least admit you're wrong after the season if let's say the Panther end the season with 9+ wins?
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:As a Seahawks fan since 1997 even I know two things: Don't be too critical of a road opener, first game of the season, especially on a 10 am start because the Seahawks usually tend to look sluggish and suck even against worst talent and easier weather conditions.
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:And 2ndly: Don't get way too excited over a hot start because more often than not the flames die out.
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:This team has 15 more games to play and hopefully three more after that. We are 1-0. Last year, we were 0-1. We won plenty of close games and we won plenty of close games. We were never blown out.
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:Wilson and about 35 other Hawks are now 13-6 since 2012.
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:I'm just saying if problems continue to persist with no avail then start dropping rocks from space on your dinosaurs but to be so critical after the first real game the season is little short sighted and premature.
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:Our team is built to become stronger as the season journeys on as other teams wear out in the final battles but the Seahawks are as human as everyone else and young.
Pandion Haliaetus":30511vtt said:They will make a lot of mistakes but should get better with each one and with more experience.

If the Seahawks win the Super Bowl, that will cut right out. The Seahawks never winning a Super Bowl is the reason for the "panic" in the first place.
