Bevell can't read his playbook properly in the rain, maybe that will be our only salvation?SoulfishHawk":2416u25h said:I'm not even sure why the Hawks should show up on Sunday. It might rain. Clearly Russell can't play football in the rain :roll:

There must be a backup source of power. Plus you can be damn sure that will be the first area to have power restored on Sunday.

I watched that roll in and waited it out from the 9th floor of the Bank of America building in downtown Bellevue.
That was a fun day.

I expect our run defense to play at its typical elite level and Jarran Reed will be back also.
The show my age, I was six during the Columbus Day storm of 1962. However I lived in Spokane and we didn't have anything like happen here.sdog1981":385wzcpz said:FearTheBeak":385wzcpz said:Largent80":385wzcpz said:Obviously you missed the inaugural day storm in 1992.

To show my age. I was in middle school and got stuck at school when my mom could not come and pick me up because the I90 bridge was closed.

Not really an advantage either way IMO
This.
If those Falcon RB's don't scare you, you're not paying attention. Best RB tandem in the NFL right now, and with a QB like Ryan and WR core with Jones? That's one scary as hell offense.
i'd agree, but I'd also venture to say that our run defense is leagues better than theirs. This is a game that our OL needs to establish the run.

2012: VS 49ers 42-13 Wilson 15-21 4TD-1INT
2013 VS Cards: lose 10-17 after forcing 4 Carson Palmer interceptions. They could not move the ball at all. Wilson 11/27 108 1 TD 1 INT
2014 VS Saints: They squeak by the Saints. That game had crazy weather windy, sunny, rainy. Wilson was just 9/18 103 yards 0TD 0INT
2014 VS Oakland: This was a horrible Raiders team the Hawks won 30-24. Wilson 17/35 179 0TD 0INT
2015 VS Green Bay: We all know about this one Wilson played like pure trash. If the Packers had not made some mental blunders they would have won. Wilson 14/29 209 1TD 4INT
We need the 2012 Rain Wilson.
