    Mike Evans, WR - if he goes to SF, ARZ, RAMS, then what?

    if he goes to SF, Kaep will throw his flat bullets that he'll have trouble adjusting to catching and be traded to the Chiefs as a first round bust after 2 years. Bradford and Palmer don't scare me. They'll also have to find a credible threat at QB to raise my eyebrows. Give them a mobile QB who...

    The one thing you think Hawks must improve on to rePete

    It's not about a repeat for me, although it would be nice. It's about maintaining a long window of Super Bowl opportunities. For me it's a big bodied WR. Not one that's deep route only, but one that can play a little of RW's sandlot ball when he gets pressured and has the power to catch...

    Will the Seahawks ever be America's team?

    It will be bad enough to sometime in the future be faced with a string of mediocre seasons. Enduring that and grope ourselves to the thought of past Lombardi's and entitlement, instead of current relevance like Cowgirl, 29er or Stealer fan outlook, would break my heart.

    Pass rush concerns now that Allen has signed with Bears

    Clemons' value wasn't only in the pass rush, it was veteran savvy in sealing his edge against QB scrambles and runs. I'm not sure Avril can fill those shoes, run defense been a knock against him for quite some time. Perhaps he's improved in this area. It's not the passing downs that concern me...

    DeSean Jackson thread (stay on topic please)

    6'1'' Kearse figured pretty significantly into our offense without Rice in the mix, even in those games in which Harvin was available. Do you think he'll gain significant playing time over DSJ, PH, and ADB? Why would he? Did that prove my premise false, or was this was my point? DSJ just benches...

    Return of the Smurfs?

    You think I'm knocking RW? Far from it, I'd rather not give him a 5'10'' WR that was hit in stride, mostly from clean pockets, while Foles overwhelmingly hit Cooper and his TE's when he was under pressure and scrambling. Tate could at least make contested grabs, jump balls, and execute scramble...

    DeSean Jackson thread (stay on topic please)

    What did I presume? That no team in recent times times has purposefully paired a diminutive QB with starting WRs shorter than him without at the least a large DEDICATED pass catching TE? That isn't a presumption. We don't have Tate anymore. A taller Kearse saw significant time with Rice out of...

    DeSean Jackson thread (stay on topic please)

    I'm not gauging WRs by their height alone, I am gauging their height along with our QBs height and issues while comparing his plight to similar successful QBs of his stature. RW's height isn't anymore of an issue than Drew Brees' is, yet Brees' teams provided him with at least one tall outside...

    DeSean Jackson thread (stay on topic please)

    We did well enough with a historic defense and great field position that could help the offense a lot. Otherwise RW hung on to the ball too long and absorbed too many hits, and not all of that can be blamed on our OL. He'd be the first diminutive QB in the past 2 decades to run primary...

    DeSean Jackson thread (stay on topic please)

    DSJ = 5'10'' ADB = 5'10'' PH = 5'11'' 6'1'' Kearse and 6'2'' Lockette don't have much of a hope to get significant time behind that lineup. That CFL guy is a longshot and a half to make the final 53. RW = 5'11'' and struggled visibly with our starting big WR gone. How do you project RW will...

    Return of the Smurfs?

    That'd be a nightmare with a 5'11'' QB. Even if the OL improved he'd dance so much in the backfield struggling to see over DL that he'd still be the most sacked and hit QB in the league. Our TE's are blockers so I won't buy them contributing. That didn't too much with Rice out and RW visibly...

    Would Hawks sign Mark Sanchez?

    I would rather start Blitz or whatever our mascot is called at QB in full costume than to see Sanchez signed as even a ball boy on our team. I'd rather see Tim Tebow ffs.

    Rumor Mill: Hawks could be in on a DeSean Jackson trade

    not that I care about DeSean Jackson's height. But I do care if we're going to sink 24 some odd million into our WR corps just to start a 5'11'' QB with 3 5'11'' WRs. If we actually used our TE's to catch balls it would be a bit of a different story. Hell, Flutie had 2 6'2'' WRs in Andre Reed...
