Although I think throwing it in that situation was a good call, the play call was wrong. I would have rather seen a bootleg fade route to Mathews, or Willson. At least run something play action to give Russ a chance to make a play, or throw it away. Running the ball from that spot is what the Patriots were expecting, and who knows, maybe Marshawn gets in, maybe he doesn't. The choice of not to run it reminds me of the NFCCG last year, when Marshawn fumbled in the same situation.

Nope. You have to be able to see the forest through the trees my friend from the North. We have three emerging studs in the league at the receiver spot in Norwood, Richardson and Matthews. Mark my words, next year those three are starters and our offense begins to shift from a run first to a deadly passing offense. With those three and Baldwin, the Hawks will have the best receiving corp in the NFL for the next few years to come.

Spend the money on the O line and ride these three cheap receivers for three years and I promise you that's a winning combination.
I'm all for extensions to Russ and Bobby but I am incredibly leery about Marshawn but willing to take the risk. What would really help is to actually get a real WR in and hope the Richardson can comeback and that Chris Matthews is actually the real deal. If that happens along with Norwood developing the Seahawks may have something big time concerning the WR corps. Also for the love of all that is holy do something, anything about our TE position.SomersetHawk":2jt5qykk said:Aside from Bevell being fired (plenty of threads on that), what will it take for you?
I'm hoping we get some fast extensions done for Russ, Marshawn and Bobby. I think I'd feel instantly better about everything.
JR Sweezy extension would help too, thought he looked solid for the most-part yesterday, and is the most reliable guy on that O-line. As a side note, I thought our O-line as a whole had one of their better games. Loved seeing Carp maul his man without his helmet on too, that was gritty.
Not sure how I feel about tendering Kearse. It's kind of disappointing that he appears to be so indispensable. I love his big play ability, but he had another drop yesterday, and even if it was a little tough, he had it in his hands and it ultimately proved costly.
Getting Williams back on a lower one year deal would be cool too, that guy needs a ring.

Oh and hold onto Lockette, this kid will have a HUGE chip on his shoulder (as if he didn't already) coming into next season.
