    I heart Marshawn Lynch.

    A few more rushes by Christine Michael and we might have had 3 100 yard rushers. That would have been historic no doubt!

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    I get your point. Well taken. The 12 win season last year followed two losing seasons. When you look at the totality of factors, Cam obviously was a part of those 12 wins, also a ferocious defense and the DPOY propelled them. Year 1 was like watching an XBOX game. Year 2 was a struggle - year...

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    Sure - not that fair - but it's a lot more true than unfair. In year 1 he was a darling - a bazillion rushing touchdowns and lots of spectacular plays. The next year he still had smith. Now look at smith - #1 wr for Baltimore. He's always had greg olsen. and now he has a monster WR and a very...

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    Just saw that Ian Rapaport is reporting that Cam's deal is expected to be like Matt Ryan's. No Kaepernick deal for him. True handcuff right there. **Edit** - now that this game is over, we should move this thread to the NFL forum.

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    LOL on the Cam debacle tonight. He is really not anything other than an underachieving potential super star. He is suffering from RGIIIism - early success and no growth whatsoever. His numbers are on the decline. If he could only get that head bolted on the right way and harness those talents...

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    GooGoo - his is not gritty. Your first example of Jake Delhomme was gritty. Liked that dude. I was living in Dallas at the time and every sports talk guy in that city wanted to steal that guy from you and put him on the Cowboys to lead them to multiple Superb Owls. That's a guy that people like...

    10-6 will not be easy and may not be enough

    Almost crazy enough to work. Fandom has its follies and foibles, it's breathtaking moments, it's legions of blind followers, and everything in between. This could be epic.

    10-6 will not be easy and may not be enough

    Shit happens. The Cowboys lost to the Redskins. We beat the Broncos and Packers. But lost to STL, Dallas, and San Diego. Out of those three losses, I'd say we probably should have won 2 if not for crazy circumstances. One game at a time is the right approach. 10 wins should make the playoffs...

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    I couldn't agree with you more. The tracked variables are so hard to track due to home-town bias, systems, coaching, what the staff expects, etc. DelHomme is a great example (from the Panthers) where he did all of that, had the personality, showed the grit. Probably not the world's best QB, but...

    Why Russell is a winner/leader and Cam Newton is not

    Couldn't help but chime in when the young QB comparisons started to happen. Everything is subjective - no doubt there's a bunch of good young QB's in the league. I'd probably put 5 down as the top young QB's - leaving out RGIII, as he has proven literally nothing in this league to date IMHO...

    Seahawks' Opponent Penalties: Team Average vs. SEA Game

    I think both sides play into it. a) Seahawks quit doing dumb things. Things will change for the better. Maybe the numbers straighten out. During that stretch, we have led the league in penalties. This affects the outcomes of everything else in the game. b) Refs swallow whistles for the other...

    Seahawks' Opponent Penalties: Team Average vs. SEA Game

    I've never really viewed the referees from the opponents point of view. My guess if we trolled their sites there'd be just as many "Eff the refs" posts as there are here. The stats don't lie, but I think it'd be much closer to reality if we remove the presnap penalties. The LOB plays...

    Bruce Irvin

    I'm all about balance. I contend that #51 would not have had the opportunities he had without the outstanding play of our DB's in this game. Having Burley start to contribute and having Simon back were both such heavily contributing factors. It simply means that the QB must now progress through...

    Nate Silver: Seahawks Underdogs To Make Playoffs

    I don't know if a loss this weekend statistically kills our chances. The eyeball test should help. By that I mean that SF and ARI are not without their faults - and both could struggle mightily as the season progresses. SF's is more glaringly obvious, and ARI has squeaked out some victories with...

    The Only Bad Taste I See Is Fox Sports

    The only thing I've ever heard is the fluorescent green is a bit too much. It doesn't bother me any, but for traditionalists it can be a drain.

    one positive thing

    I think you have to look at best case for each draft. While they are in their rookie contracts, you hope that out of 7 rounds you find 4-5 guys that stick. Top round guys you hope will start, bottom rounds you hope will play special teams. I think the Hawks have done a good job at that. When you...

    BREAKING NEWS: Percy Harvin Traded to Jets

    Crazy. Young guys (Richardson, Norwood) must be ready. That's my only explanation.
