    Best NFL Defensive Triplets Ranked

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/16392 ... s-top-list For those of you who bashed Barnwell for his too low placement of the Hawks in the offensive triplets rankings, I'm sure you'll enjoy his article about the other side of the ball.

    Nick Fairley Visiting the Rams (now signed)

    http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... with-rams/ Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Fairley is now headed for a visit with the Rams. If Fairley does end up joining the Rams defensive line, it will be a case of the rich getting richer. The Rams have recent first-round picks Aaron...

    Quarterly Stats

    A post about the Seahawks starting slow got me thinking about how they've performed on a quarter-by-quarter basis this season. Did a little research on PFR and here's what I found: Defense: Seahawks D has only allowed more than a TD in a quarter 7 times in 64 quarters this season (has not...

    Fun Fact

    Right now, the Seahawks are allowing an average of 16.5 points per game. This is a touch more than the 14.4 allowed last season and the 15.3 allowed in 2012, but it's still a great number. It puts us at 1st in the league in scoring defense, and if we manage to hold St. Louis to fewer points than...

    First Half vs. Second Half

    I was thinking about how the coaching staff's halftime adjustments affect the team's performance, so I decided to take a quick look at our outcomes since Carroll has become our HC. First off, in our first two years, things went about as expected. We were either tied or in the lead at the half...

    The Seahawks are 3-3 and they suck...

    Week 7 games have just wrapped up, and the defending SB champs are clearly in trouble. They have lost two in a row and are sitting at 3-3. Their road woes have returned, as they are 1-2 on the road, and they are no longer impervious at home, with Dallas dominating them in a game that was nowhere...

    Some Love for Marcus Burley

    I enjoy Bill Barnwell's writing, and he just did a piece on NFL players who are having success this season after coming from out of nowhere. Burley is his first entry: The entire piece is a great read, but the Burley part was just awesome. http://grantland.com/the-triangle/marcu ... e-players/

    Detroit LB Stephen Tulloch done for the year

    Tore his ACL celebrating a sack of Aaron Rodgers. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... lebrating/ I really hope that he gets a sympathy call from Bill Gramatica.

    So this is how the Broncos plan to capture Seahawks magic

    http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... ng-layoff/ According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Broncos are working out former Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu today. Tatupu hasn’t played since 2010, though when he made a brief appearance in Falcons camp in 2012, he insisted missing the previous...

    Disappointed, but not discouraged

    I look at this game two ways... 1. Any Hawks loss is disappointing, but given the context of how they were playing for the last several weeks, it's frustrating to see them play such a sloppy game. 2. On the other hand, splitting games with a strong division rival - with each winning at home -...

    Clinton McDonald

    I know it's hard to evaluate trades until some time has passed, but I'm starting to think that we made out okay when we traded Kelly Jennings for McDonald. :mrgreen:

    Vikings TE Kyle Rudolph has broken foot

    and will be out 4-6 weeks, according to PFT: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... oken-foot/ He's their top receiving TE, and he'll miss the game against the Seahawks. Might only be a minor issue, but it's a bit of an advantage for us.

    Championship teams...

    ... have games just like this one. Forget that old garbage about "Oh, championship teams always beat up on the bad teams and win close games against good teams." That's not true, usually. Last year's Ravens team won a game VERY MUCH like this one when they got outplayed by the Steelers in...

    AFC South Scheduling

    Something I don't get about our upcoming slate of AFC South games... When the NFL realigned in 2002 and set up the new scheduling system, one of the "highlights" that was mentioned was that this would allow a fan to see all 32 teams play in his home team's stadium over the course of an 8-year...

    12 Straight

    Yesterday marked the 12th straight game (postseason included) that Russell Wilson has thrown for a TD. It also marked the 12th straight game that he finished with a passer rating of 88 or more. And while that stat may not sound all that impressive, consider the following: The 88.0 rating was...

    Chances of going 8-0 at home again...

    I expect us to go 8-0 at home again this season, but how realistic is that expectation? Since realignment in 2002, only 20 teams have gone 8-0 at home (less than 2 per season). Here's the breakdown: 2008 Carolina Panthers 2006 Indianapolis Colts 2005 Denver Broncos 2002 Green Bay Packers 2011...

    Run, run, pass

    So one of the common complaints around here last season (and one I've seen a bit this offseason) is the desire to reduce the number of times we see the Seahawks with a fresh set of downs, only to run/run/pass into a punting situation. I found myself wondering how often we really did that last...

    Guess it's now official that Leroy Hill won't be back

    Or if he is, he sure won't look the same: http://proshop.seahawks.com/ProductDeta ... ctID=39363
