Baldinger on Spoon vs The Bears

[Mistashoesta]

Spoon is just on a whole different level.




And then, there's this.

That geno throw has to come out the moment lockett breaks from the defender. Instead he waits to throw until Lockett is almost standing still. Just ******* brutal.

On Witherspoon -- holy hell he's a playmaker. He's got a great corner but honesty they need to treat him like a LB sometimes so he can get into the play.

Naahh...not Geno...must have been the play call.

Naahh...not Geno...must have been the play call.

Or Lockett ran a lazy, wrong route.

 

[Fernie Hawks Fan]

Ya okay...Geno is the greatest.

In the thread earlier about grading the picks in the Wilson trade I really couldn't understand some of the negative comments on Spoon in there. Like they said on the broadcast, he hasn't lit up the stat sheet with picks and sacks but watching him play, I don't see an issue

Spoon is one of the best picks Seattle has made in over a decade, for my money. A true hybrid. Watching him for the uninitiated must feel like "Is he a Safety? Corner? Linebacker? What position DOES he play?"

Spoon is almost always around where the ball is. He is a very fun player to watch and root for, so glad they drafted him over the other guy.

Witherspoon was exciting, he was the best part of watching the game.

Geno was at his worst. And his indecisiveness was at its best. Geno’s timing throws were 60/40 balls, 60% chance of getting picked… but the plays calls did not help at all, who kept calling all those 60/40 balls? And why can we look dominate with the run at times but not use it on third down to get a first? We cannot control time of possession at all and I don’t trust Geno to read something and call an audible, is that how we get to those 60/40 balls?

Many great corners suffer on the stat sheet because they play so well QBs throw away from them. Woolen is one of them. He plays his man well, and then goes to wherever the ball is thrown to assist in the tackle. And that's not even talking about his run support and blitz ability.

I blame fantasy football.

Woolen???? Some early day drinking going on?

He plays “football player.”

He’s a generational talent that I hope we’re blessed to watch in a Seahawks uniform for his entire career.
Not hyperbole, but I believe he’ll end up in the same vein as Walter Jones, Kam Chancellor or Steve Largent at his “position.”

Really real!

If Spoon was all we got out of the RW trade I'd say it was worth it. Let's put it that way.
