Why I think Florio is a Bitch

[onanygivensunday]

He's from West Virginia. Based on the six years I was forced to live there, I'd say there's about a 100% chance that he's an inbred, mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging certified Hillrod.

Fixed it for ya.

 

[Screaming Judy]

I hope the team uses it as bulletin board fodder!

 

[LeveeBreak]

Thank god. If he ranked us high I'd be panicking.

 

[Maulbert]

I spend as much time reading Florio as I do Prickso. None.

It’s only been 2 weeks not much to judge on, the Hawks have victories over the Bronco’s and Patriots hardly anything to brag about. The Hawks will get more credit when they can beat some better teams

The Pats have a good shot at finishing 2nd in the AFC East and getting in the playoffs. Now the Broncos, they do suck. They can’t run, can’t block, average 5 drops a game by wr, and expect a rookie to somehow survive that?

I'm glad I have no idea who this florio is, but I intend to keep it that way.

what's almost as bad is that Yahoo Sports has us at 13 this week. DOWN one spot from 12 last week.

I don't find that terribly upsetting. First, "power rankings" are made-up nonsense. Second, the Seahawks have so far beaten two teams widely expected to suck this season. I can imagine other teams in the same neighborhood in the last-week ranking moving up more than the Seahawks. Honestly, putting the Seahawks 12th in the league after just the week-1 games and 13th after the first two weeks seems like a compliment overall to me.

The other thing is that it's still very early in the season. Let's talk in three weeks or so, when small-sample-size effects are a little less shocking, so for example, Derek Carr is no longer the runaway league MVP and is heading back toward being forgotten in his natural habitat, the mid-to-lower third quartile of starting quarterbacks.

I used to think that national media had some beef with Pete Carroll, but their behavior didn't change after the switch og guard to Macdonald.

Young Joe Biden?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

I'm not going down that road, already got a warning.

Go Hawks

 

[TwilightError]

What a talentless rodent.

Florio is one of the only major football pundits who had us making the playoffs.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

He's still an a** goblin

 

[NoGain]

He also said our WR corp was as good as any team in the NFL, ranked our secondary a top 3, and really loved the hire of MM as head coach.

I don't see him hating on the Hawks like others here.

 

[Glasgow Seahawk]

We're not going to get any national respect until we beat a team with a good QB/top offense. We won't next week either. Maybe Detroit. Denver stink and the Patriots were expected to be bad (but may be better than thought)

I guess there's a reason it's called *yahoo* sports. Bunch of damn yahoos there.

I could see not moving up when winning if you’re already in the top 10 , but staying pat at 21 after a road win is cray cray.

And to be fair,

I’d trade a lot of wins to have that SB game back. A lot.

To be fair again …

I think it’s kind of cool that as a West Virginian he more than likely has had sex with his first cousin. How many of us can say that ?

 

[chris98251]

His Rankings are BS but the unnecessary addition of beating the Pats three time and we would trade it all for a single win was a salt thrown in the wound act.

Don’t over rate the Pats just because they beat the Bengals in week 1 the Pats also have just a good a chance of finishing in last place in the AFC East after Buffalo who I expect to win the division
