MNF : Seahawks win 27-19 in a hard-fought win

[glenwo2]

But man was it ugly at times.

And I'd like to know how Kubiak's mind works sometimes..

Like...he seems like one of the top brilliant minds as far as OC's go and other times he makes head-scratching decisions (some of which we saw tonight).

I mean what in the hell was Kubiak THINKING in having Kupp throw a pass which was picked off??? WHY???

Also, maybe I'm misremembering but it seemed Kubiak went away a bit too much from the run game later to me and had Sam pass more which made no sense.

The Hawks identity is to POUND THE F*CKING ROCK even when it's not doing all that much. Why? Because it forces the Defenses to stay honest and enables the Playaction to be effective. Simple concept, right?

I can't believe I'm finding myself being pissed after a win but that sh*t annoyed me.

Oh and speaking of annoying : ANTHONY FREAKIN' BRADFORD.

WTF was he doing?? HE ACTUALLY PULLED AN "ABE LUCAS" BY PUSHING HIS MAN *INTO* DARNOLD FOR THE "Strip-sack" that resulted in the TD for Houston. ARE YOU F*CKING KIDDING ME?

EDIT : Okay correction. Someone said it may have been Cross but I don't care. It might as well have been Bradford who was f*cking terrible all game long.

Can JS please make it a Top Priority at the Trade deadline to find a replacement for this guy? Holy Cat-FISH-SH*T.

If the game wasn't a two-score game, Bradford (actually Cross but I don't care) would've potentially cost us the game (at the very least he kept Houston's faint hopes alive with that).

I would love to see what grade PFF gave him after this one.


At the very least overall, Sam was only sacked 2 times which is a big credit to Lucas and Cross from keeping Hunter and the other guy away from Sam for the most part.


And Speaking of Sam,

I will say he had an overall....DECENT night. That's how I will look at it.

He didn't resemble the All-Pro that we've seen the past week but against this Top D it's expected. Sam's not Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson.

Hell he's not even Baker Mayfield and HE got the same treatment by a very tough Lions defense with pretty similar numbers to Sam tonight, but I digress.

Sammy D had some key throws in the game that helped put the team in a position to score TD's and FG's which was very important.

The Pick was unfortunate (and I can only imagine the losers in media snickering about "ghosts" and other moronic stuff but f*ck 'em) but the Texans have a Top D for a reason.

EDIT : You know what? Going back to look at the fumble/TD, Sam should've thrown the ball away. Going to call a spade a spade here. Sam had 3 seconds PLUS there and for some reason decided not to throw the ball. Lots of blame to go around for that play and Sam was indeed one of them. I take back what I said that it wasn't Sam's fault.


Anyway, thankfully there was not enough time (and timeouts) for the Texans to make things scary as they shot themselves in the foot with a personal foul penalty that turned a 4th-and-4 into a first down, and thus the win.

HATED the fumble by Sam (who should've thrown the ball away as he had 3 seconds plus of time to do it) and it occurred at the worst possible area of the field but he held onto the football the rest of the time.



Bottom Line : This Texans Defense was no f*cking joke. We knew that going in.

And we saw it first-hand.


I'm just glad we came out of it on the other side with a MNF *WIN* (improving our record to 34-13) overall and our NFL 2025 Season record to a very important 5-2 going into the bye.

A very critical win considering the Rams spanked the Nose-picker and the Jags while the San Francisco Frauds basically got a freebie win because Michael Penix was a Michael P*ssy.


So...It's a bittersweet night, I know, for many of us with what happened with the M's but at least the Seahawks made sure the night wasn't a total disaster.

FIRST PLACE AGAIN.

SEA!

HAWKS!

SEA!

Should be 6-0 but I’ll take it. Bitter sweet as I’m still mourning the M’s heart wrenching loss

 

[AROS]

Should be 7-0 but I’ll take it. Bitter sweet as I’m still mourning the M’s heart wrenching loss

FIFY

Hey AROS, I don't know if you feel as I do but I think JS should seriously consider going after a RG at the Deadline.

Bradford is going to cost us games just like he almost did in this one.

That strip-sack should NEVER have happened.

It gave Houston new life when the Hawks were squeezing the life out of them.

I don’t think there’s any question Bradford is our weak link at OL. And what do they say about the weakest link in a chain?

He needs to be replaced and I am quite sure the coaches feel the same way. Sometimes however you battle cohesiveness with talent. In other words even though he is clearly the weak link, he’s in there play after play. For better or for worse, the other linemen know what they are getting out of him.

But yes, no question, we need a massive upgrade in RG just like we got in LG.

Sooner the better, bruda.

 

[keasley45]

Four TOs isn't gonna cut it against better teams.

It's frustrating how good this team can look at times on offense and then how entirely stuck in the mud we can seem.

Glad for the win but we have to figure this out before the games get tougher.

 

[glenwo2]

How about the Refs not helping matters by DISALLOWING a SAFETY the Hawks OBVIOUSLY got on Stroud?

WTF was that about?

 

[evergreen]

And twice they got extra downs. Once on a procedural play that sucks cuz we stopped them it’s bs you can’t accept the play cuz it did happen. The other cuz the clock.

 

[AROS]

Yeah that safety that wasn’t needs to be explained to me. WTF?!

 

[glenwo2]

Yeah that safety that wasn’t needs to be explained to me. WTF?!

Even their on-air "official" was surprised by the call and also was wondering why MacDonald wasn't allowed to challenge that?

Then he attempted (poorly) to rationalize what these idiot refs (or maybe crooked refs working for Vegas) were doing there...something about them ruling he was at the 2 when he was being tackled (ie forward-progress) but the thing is HE WAS RUNNING BACKWARDS ALREADY!!! IT WASN'T LIKE SOMEONE HAD HIS HANDS AROUND HIM AND WAS TRYING TO TACKLE HIM IN THERE!!

Grrrrrr....That makes me so mad.

 

[glenwo2]

Just saw the TD to JSN by Sam.....

He got destroyed by..guess who?....Sam Bradford's man.

How he managed to get that ball to JSN there....Sammy D is a MAN.

Bradford is a Beta. GET HIM THE F*CK OUT OF HERE.

Not that I'm against Ant Bradford getting shitteth upon, but, I BELIEVE it was Cross that got molested on the strip-sack TD in the endzone.

 

[glenwo2]

Really? Well still Bradford needs to be benched but he can't because his replacement would obviously be even worse (if that was possible) which is why JS needs to work the phones at the deadline to get a more decent RG.

If that was Cross than I chalk that up to a bad play at the worst time for him since he's done an admirable job keeping Sam (for the part) upright against this Defense.

Bradford gets no such leeway so I'm not going to change my OP.

EDIT : except I did change my OP.

 

[hgwellz12]

Oh, for sure. And I could be wrong. I haven't gone back to watch highlights yet.

 

[AROS]

It’s true. It wasn’t Bradford on that particular play.

 

[glenwo2]

Oh, for sure. And I could be wrong. I haven't gone back to watch highlights yet.

It was Cross (I saw but whatever).


BTW, I just watched the replay of the Kupp INT.

We were in the Redzone.

What in god's name was Kubiak THINKING?????



Can you tell me?

Teams use "trickery" when their offense can't get sh*t going and the offense was more or less getting the ball down the field.

THAT TURNOVER was Purely On Kubiak. PERIOD.

He potentially cost us 7 POINTS there.

It should've been 21-0 at that point.

 

[hgwellz12]

KLINT wasn't thinking. I've come to realize that's his problem. He's one of those personalities that is kinda impulsive, gets an itch in his nuts, and calls a play against ALL better judgment. He's light-years better than Grubb, but wtf is that really saying?

For someone who doesn't like to read long posts...that was a long post, haha.
Offense scored enough points, but was sloppy,; defense carried the game for long stretches. Good news is that even an off day from the QB position (which wasn't terrible, mind you) doesn't doom the team like it has in previous years. Another good team win.

Well I think it's because it's just my thoughts being typed out that make it an exception.

And I agree with you.

A win is a win is a win.

5-2 going into the bye and HOPEFULLY we now can get *EVERYBODY* back healthy in two weeks.

 

[glenwo2]

You know what? Going back looking at the fumble/TD, Sam should've thrown the ball away.

Going to call a spade a spade here.

Sam had 3 seconds PLUS there and for some reason decided not to throw the ball. It looked like Sam got more than enough time there.

Lots of blame to go around for that play but Sam was a big culprit of it.

I'd like to officially take back what I said that it wasn't Sam's fault.

sigh.....What in the hell, Sam?

If you feel there is no one open, throw the ball away.

For some reason, Sam panicked there as both edges were pushing both Lucas and Cross closer to Sam than he'd like.
