Harvin will PRACTICE Thursday -- try to play in game

[Uncle Si]

Still I am skeptical, like when Mariners talk about signing a big time free agent but then it always ends up they sign that guy's 3rd cousin with the same last name. The "Harvin will be ready in X game" stuff just gets me bitter.

Robinson Cano....

Believe

Kind of wierd because on Brock and Danny this morning he talked about Percy having the off season to heal up and come back next fall.

Maybe Pete's playing with opposing teams minds

Like I said above, I think pete's morning comments were alluding to getting him back at 100%. That just isn't going to happen this season, and I doubt it ever was a real possibility. That doesn't mean he can't possibly still play at something other than 100%, but with an entire off season to recuperate, that Pete believes Harvin will come back next year at the 100% level we all would love to see him at.

My theory is this. I think Harvin's hip is getting better but the Hawks didn't want to play him one game (Rams or Cardinals) and have his hip flare up again rendering him useless for the rest of the season. Unless Pete believes he is 100%, I don't think they will use him unless they play the Panthers or 49ers and if you have to expend him than you use him for what I believe, is the last real obstacle. We can win the Super Bowl (Denver, New England who cares) without Harvin but if his hip is going to flare up at least use him against our best obstacle.

Semantics are important when trying to read between lines.

I'll believe he plays when he plays. And I sincerely hope he makes it. However, that doesn't change anything that I've said about the situation. I've said that PC/JS would refuse to IR him. Even after Rap's bogus report, I knew they wouldn't do it. He will stay on the active roster no matter what.

No one knows anything else about what's happening behind the scenes. All I know is, to maintain the most flexibility this off-season, you keep him off IR. PC/JS are free to come up with ways to explain it to the media as they please.

 

[Hawkstorian]

This morning I would have said 10% chance he plays this year, now 40? 50? Not any more than that.

I am just going to post this then go back and read the thread. HELL YEAH I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!!! and parrish cox back to SF??? sloppy 3rds or 4ths anyone ? lol

So, Ian Rapaport's source is full of crap?

I'd say so. If the contract information that has been stated here is true, they wouldn't have IR'd him anyways, or he would've had all next year's salary guaranteed.

They've repeatedly said that there wasn't any damage; it was just sore. Seeing as he went back to NY to the doctor that operated on him and they said "no damage" it was just him getting comfortable with it.

If what everyone says about Harvin is true, now that the regular season is done, he'll show up. And next year, before TC, he'll have another sore something or another.

All cynicism aside, if Harvin can come back for the playoffs, it would be huge. Just the way AZ, SF and Indy played us won't work. You can line Harvin up against anybody they have (Peterson included) and he's get separation in 2 steps. He's a born blitz beater and our quick offense will suddenly bloom and thrive.

 

[MizzouHawkGal]

They are going to shoot him up with cortisone and he'll play for three games and undergo clean up surgery the day after the Super Bowl.

At this point, with his injury, it is pain that limits him - nothing structural like an ACL tear.

This. They basically held him out just for this very situation. For the games that count. This changes everything.

Hard to believe.

 

[grizbob]

We don't need him for the playoffs save him for Super Bowl :0190l:

Depending on when it went, it will be in the Bob and Groz or Wyman Mike and Moore podcast.
Podcasts go up around 20 mins after the previous hour ended.

so 12pm-1pm podcast will be available around 1:20pm.

The morning interview was on Brock and Danny.

Pete's pressers are always available on seahawks.com in the video section.

Well, Schefter had said the Seahawks had no plan to IR him, so one of them had to be wrong.

 

[chawx]

Yep. Deal with it .NET'ers who think they know everything. Pete trolled you and the NFL hardcore. He knew all along that we didn't need Harvin to get the #1 seed, so he held him back and let him get healthy. Now, he's going to unleash him and we're about to see probably the most one-sided run to the Super Bowl that anyone has ever seen.

Remember that 3-game streak last year? Where we outscored the Bills, Cardinals, and 49ers 150-30 ? It's going to be like that, but I don't see how 3 teams will score more than 30 on us...maybe Denver will knock that total up to near 30, but seriously, this is exactly what I hoped was happening this whole time and it's looking like I'm not going to be disappointed.

Buckle up fellas (and fella-ettes) this rides about to go into TURBO-mode!
