    "Stacking the box" = The secret to beating us?

    Right, Belichick is currently completely into heaping as much praise on the Hawks as he possibly can. He is not going to say anything remotely negative about them, He compared Wilson to Roger Staubach, a great passer who could run and scramble, and like Wilson, was a true winner who always...

    "Stacking the box" = The secret to beating us?

    The New England defense will likely: 1. Stack the box against the Seahawk run, including the read option. When Belichick stacks against the run, he really commits to it. 2. Use Jamie Collins to spy/shadow Russell Wilson. Collins is an athletic 25 year old linebacker with 4.5 speed. He had...

    "Stacking the box" = The secret to beating us?

    That's correct. Belichick never said Wilson was not a quarterback. I searched around, but couldn't find the exact quote, but he said something like, "Wilson is like a running back when he tucks the ball and runs." .

    We're going to win.

    We are going to win. The only way we won't win is if the offense coordinators - Cable and Bevell - shackle Russell Wilson, limiting the read option and his mobility. The New England defense is susceptible to the run, especially the unpredictable quarterback runs.The quarterback runs will take...

    Great idea. I like the way you think. Might also mix in a few Stop Freakins.

    Locker room attendant being questioned

    I am not necessarily for it, but that is an interesting idea. If they can prove cheating, Indy has a better chance than Dallas of a bringing a legitimate lawsuit. Dallas would be suing based on a referee's best-effort judgement, which most probably isn't fraud. If the Colts could prove the...

    How would you handle the Patriot's eligibles/ineligibles?

    There is nothing in the rules about allowing the defense enough time to adjust to reportings of eligible receivers. That was John Harbaugh's complaint last week – that his defense didn't have time to adjust – but he got shot down by the referees. (In fact, he got a penalty for arguing too...

    PR Update: Walters to be main PR going forward.

    Here is the video of the play: http://www.seahawks.com/videos-photos/videos/Seattle-Seahawks-safety-Earl-Thomas-muffs-punt/418acbe3-7bfc-48cc-9c82-a021128e1e1b It was not Earl Thomas' fault. It was Richard Sherman's fault. Sherman blocked the defender into Thomas. The defender hit the ball...

    If you think the reason for the offense....

    Improvements in the offense (in this order): 1. Russell Wilson. Even better vision, even better decision-making, even better accuracy, even better everything. He is the perfect quarterback for this team, with all its weapons. I don't think I would trade him, at his age, for any other...

    What are the odds of an undefeated season?

    I hate the loser mentality of Seattle fans. We have had such lame sports teams for so long that many of you fans have become losers. Last year, most people were predicting 11 or 12 wins - and not getting home field advantage for the playoffs. Many thought the chances of a lowly sports town...

    POLL: So, should ET be returning punts?

    Of course ET should be allowed to return punts, if he is the player who is best at it.

    POLL: Should Percy be returning kicks?

    Remember that kickoffs are by far the most dangerous play in football. So much so that Roger Goodell keeps looking for ways to make them safer - already implementing rules moving the line up to the 35 and eliminating the wedge, and even proposing replacing kickoffs with much safer punts. Punt...

    Hypothetical: If the Rams GM asked you...

    I agree. Remember we are competing with the likes of New Orleans, who have a very easy schedule, for the best record in the NFC and home field advantage throughout the playoffs I didn't think the Rams would be that good even before the Bradford injury, but they have given us trouble the last...

    Pryor to the practice squad?

    Comments: -With the recent rule change that allows two players with two accrued seasons, Pryor is eligible for the practice squad. He has been in the league for three seasons, but only has one acrued season, last year, where he played in over six games. -It is very unlikely that he will clear...

    Worried about Greg Scruggs

    I have been a big advocate for Greg Scruggs and was expecting big things from him this season, but after reviewing his play the first two pre-season games, I have to say I am disappointed. He has put on almost thirty pounds of muscle while apparently keeping his speed, he no longer has the...

    Check THIS out !!!!!! (Sherman Soup Commercial)

    I agree. Complainers will complain about anything. There is no satisfying them. I like it a lot. It was way better than I was expecting and about a hundred times better than the Clay Matthews commercial. (If this is anything like the CM commercial, they will only use the last part in the...

    Increase in size of Practice Squads

    The current IR rules came about because teams stashed players on the IR. The current rules try to impose a disincentive by requiring players to sit out the entire season. There is a strong motivation to stash players. Most teams, including the Seahawks, will push the boundaries as much as...

    Increase in size of Practice Squads

    This is the same stupid excuse, for the same stupid rule, parroted by fans for decades. Requiring seven inactive players does *not* level the playing field for teams with a lot of injuries: 1. Players at the bottom of the roster have almost no effect on the game. They only play in blowouts or...

    Comments on Condotta's 53-man roster

    Good point. I had forgotten he was that fast and athletic. When it comes to football, I think I might have a racial stereotype of caucasians. .
