    Remember the pre-season rumor

    I don't think it was about his job as much as his role in the offense. Not sure if was him or not, but the offense his carries are down, maybe in an attempt to keep him fresher or maybe b/c Bevell is trying to expand the offensive playbook and options.

    Remember the pre-season rumor

    Remember during TC when it was reported a Seahawk veteran was concerned about his role, and there was even speculation that the player would be released. Most of the speculation surrounded around Red Bryant and Mebane. Which of course was not true. After what I have seen this year, I have...

    Laying eggs

    Last yr At St Louis. -- loss At Miami -- loss At Detroit - loss This yr St Louis -- win Indy ( half an egg) loss Teams do not play their best every week for a multitude of reasons, the key is survival, it's a marathon, not a sprint. Expect another egg to be laid probably at NY or Atl...

    Downing a punt...tell me why...

    Yes, this is the rule, pretty much straight out of any rule book (HS, college, pro). If the punting team touches the ball, the return team essentially has a free attempt at a return. In the 80's & 90's when the punting team would surround a rolling punt, it was not uncommon to see the return...

    Browner Benched in the first half.

    I disagree with your disagree. Tenn's longest gain was the deep ball when BB was beaten, They came right back for an 11 yd gain against BB on the next play. Tenn also had a 14 yd completion to CJ out of the backfield. Walker had 4 catches, CJ had 3, when take away the two where BB was...

    Browner Benched in the first half.

    He may be back, but not on a "break the bank contract" He is a little on the older side, and has limited coverage abilities. If BB cannot get his hands on a receiver, he has trouble. B/C of his length, he does not have great change of direction. We've seen for three years now, when teams...

    Benefit of the short week?

    Exactly, so the "short week" argument should not be made if the 'Hawks do not win.

    Bruice Arians -"We can beat anybody"

    Pretty much any NFL team can say that!

    Benefit of the short week?

    Looking at the Thursday night results, the short week seems to benefit the "better" team. Here are the results so far this year: Patriots beat the jets (ugly) Chiefs beat the Eagles 49ers beat the Rams Browns beat the Bills (I would call this one pretty much a toss up regarding who is better...

    Kool aid startin to taste sour on offensse.....

    The offense is doing lots of very good things. The problem is the few bad things that happen are killer plays. Still 5-1, and once those things get cleaned up, you will start to see more fireworks. I think everyone got spoiled with the multiple 40+ games that were put up last year. This...

    Greatest "Almost" Seahawks

    1996 draft, passed on Ray Lewis b/c he wasn't the prototype MLB. Took Pete Kendall instead.

    Thurmond opinions?

    Thurmond is a better all around corner. Browner is a great Mauler, IMO. BB needs to be "matched up" to his strengths.

    Playing reciever for a quarterback that extends plays:

    In the John Elway days, Denver always had one guy who went deep when Elway scrambled. He also IIRC, went deep and away from the direction Elway was scrambling due to Elway's arm strength. Had Rice broke deep he might have had a chance, hell had Rice done anything other than stand there...

    Okung to IR with designation to return

    The fact that they didn't sign a vet OT speaks volumes. It speaks to the trust in McQ and the faith in the Rooks to play the spot. This FO has been right way more times than they have been wrong.

    DVR didn't record the whole game is it being rebroadcast?

    Seahawks.com has a no commercial broadcast you can watch on-line

    Pete on Avril, Browner and Clemons.

    Pete won't say if they are playing or not until he absolutely has too. I would suspect they will all be game time decisions. They first you will know about if they are playing or not will be when the inactive list comes out. This game is going to bring out the best and worst in everyone...

    Bradford is gone

    Channel 83 syndrome!!!! ( I can't even remember his name) Honestly, Bradford will probably be back next week or the week afterwards. Defensively, more nickle type packages will be used this week I would guess, so a guy who only plays ILB does not have much of a shot of getting on the field...

    Going for 2 up 12-7

    I don't have any statistical data, but have been around the game as a player or coach for almost 40 years..... In the 4th quarter, you generally play the game as what happens with the next possession & if that score against you is a TD. You play it like the opponent is going to get a TD and try...
