Hello .Net from a loyal East Coast fan! First time post!
I am NOT an X's and O's expert (never played "real" ball - just the backyard variety), but I noticed a few things in the game yesterday.
One was how glad I was to MRob in the backfield. I'm not sure of his snap totals, but the few I noticed in a quick rewind of a few of Seattle's possessions where Lynch had nice runs (10+ yards), good ol' #26 was leading the way. He had a few great blocks that easily sprung Lynch for another 5-6 yards each time. I'm excited to have him back, as Lynch just looks more comfortable following his lead.
It also seemed like RW showed some frustration after the 2nd pick, which I hadn't seen since the end of his very 1st start last year in Arizona. But man does he forget quick! Whatever part of the stadium he stares at to get back to 0 (or whatever he refers to) works! I wish I could do that.
Also, DB had 2 drops, which i believe they said he had never had any all year?!? But he also had a short memory, as that sideline pitch and catch in the 4th was just rediculuous!
Finally, this team reminds me of the 2000 Ravens team. They had a spell of about 4 games where they didn't play their best ball by any stretch, but still won, and took it to a SB win. If we can get through these next 2 games w/ W's (my heart would prefer blowouts but I'll take it anyway I can) and get some rest, get our O-line back to 100%, and possibly have Harvin, too, I think we're lining up like last year for a great end-of season run. This time, however, we have a great chance to play EVERY game at home!
Go Hawks!
