Worst Dominating Win...

[EverydayImRusselin]

...in awhile. That is all.

Go Hawks.

First shutout since 2015

I’ve seen plenty of teams where they look “good” at various points throughout the game. Make splash plays that show off the talent of their team. And they end up losing the game or not winning by a lot because there’s just something about their team that isn’t dominant.

How good does it feel that we seem to be the opposite of that. To the naked eye we look a little sloppy and don’t make some plays. Yet we look up at the scoreboard and somehow we are multiple touchdowns ahead of the opponent. That is the type of team we have.

Enjoy it everyone

This defense has no quit.

Anyone complaining about this win is never going to be happy.

You can at the same time appreciate a win and want to talk about areas where the team did poorly. The "we won so you can't talk about X" Karens are particularly annoying.

I still think we are just getting warmed up

9-3 and man it feels terrible. Wish we were 3-9 so we could get a high draft pick.


Yes this is sarcasm, and man some people like to find the doom and gloom in every victory.

I mean it was fugly offensively but the Hawks took belt to ass. Now they go on the road for yet another east coast game. I think they lead the league in east coast games for a west coast team. Thank God they travel well

A wins a win. That being said, it would be nice to have the offense get into rhythm here down the stretch and show us fans they are capable of being consistent. Kubiak called a bad game today even with his adjustments late in the 3rd quarter. The blocking was atrocious at times.

It’s only going to get harder to win games from here on out and Darnold needs to be put into the best possible position to succeed. He’s shaky under pressure and they need to open up the playbook more to get the ball out of his hands quicker

I genuinely don't care. I don't care how a win looks or a loss looks, as long as the wins are more than the losses. Get to the playoffs and keep winning ugly.

 

[Frank12]

What?.. The defense pitched a shutout while the offense struggled to score... This is a great win..

Talking about the team’s areas for growth in a balanced way is 100% fine and expected

 

[JPatera76]

regardless of how ugly the win was.. Kubiak needs to adjust and do what he did, not force the throw. BUT an ugly win... shows growth.

Theres always things to work on, but you need tape to see it and work on it. Cant do much against your own guys in practice. This game and the Rams game leaves me thinking Coach Mike will make right the ship. He has in the past, no reason not to believe he wont now.

I am not talking about people doing what you are describing. I am talking about people complaining, eg calling this the "worst" dominating win. This wasn't a squeaker. Could they have played better? Sure, and that can and should be discussed. I am sure even the biggest homer could find something to improve upon in a game like this. In turn, even the most realistic fan that has notes can appreciate this win in a lot of facets. Coming in here and trying to downplay this win for the sake of being a downer is lame. First shutout in a decade. I will take that win, dancing every time.

 

[hugecanoli]

The worst win?

 

[hawkfannj]

Weird , I completely understand this

 

[Wsumatt1982]

That Minnesota defense is no joke. They make a lot of good offenses look pedestrian. We dominated and proved we can win without JSN. Nice to see

 

[jammerhawk]

Not sure why this was the worst dominating W?

Please explain why 26-0 isn’t dominating and freakin convincing.

PERHAPS YOU GUYS WHO WATCH COLLEGE BALL ARE USED TO BASKET BALL SCORES.

To each his own.
The Vikings were hell-bent on copycatting the Rams and getting a bunch of picks, the Seahawks dialed up a shut-out, and Darnold processed and LEARNED not to get rattled= GOOD WIN.
