    --Russ - lots of people talking about deja vu and not holding this momentum. I think this is a valid discussion. Right now the opposing defense has no tape on the hawks. I expect the copy-cat league to adjust. --Receivers - the usual suspects showed up. The over-the-shoulder breadbasket...

    I'm Happy the Hawks Lost This Game

    If we are being honest with ourselves, the Hawks weren't going anywhere with this dysfunctional offense. You knew it, I knew it, our eyeballs confirmed it. Had the Hawks won 1) We would be keeping PC here even longer 2) We would have less motivation to examine coordinators/philosophies 3)...

    Did Russ play like the highest paid QB in football?

    Seriously though, less than 50 yards in the first half. I know he is a baller at times, but he has been dead-eyed for the last four games. Where is the killer mentality?

    So Many Questions After the Game

    --Has anyone seen Lockett? Nearly half a season of being a ghost. --Is Wilson masking Pete's ineptitude? The poor o-line, the poor playcalling and RW bails him out with street ball --How did we manage the clock so poorly at the end? Instead of spiking it, just go for the sneak! --Was the...

    Key to a Super Bowl Run - Injuries/Team Health

    Even though the team hasn't put together a full game where both the offense and defense are at full tilt simultaneously, I've seen enough to know what can be on both sides (compared to say, 2011-2012, when I knew they needed another pass rusher to be complete). So to me, the pieces are there it...

    The "Glue" Player on Offense and Defense

    The "Glue" player isn't the flashiest person, but the one that holds the squad together. For me those players on offense and defense are: -Offense - Tyler Lockett. With him in the lineup, everyone is better. DK has one on ones, defense are stretched and Russ has a safety valve to outlet to...

    Are the Seahawks the NFC #1 Seed Again

    Isn't there a three-way tie with the Packers, 49ers and Seattle, with the Hawks holding the tie breaker?

    Let the Soul Searching Begin

    It was a short week for a road game against a rejuvenated Rams. That said: 1) Russ Wilson was absolutely dead-eyed and not in the "I'll tear your heart out in a comeback" way. Oh, and the MVP race is over. Strangely, the same exact thing happened last year. Russ came up in the MVP...

    Why No Throwback Helmets

    Watching the miserable Thursday night game between the Bears and the Cowboys and the former is wearing throwback helmets. Why doesn't our organization do this with our all whites or blue/white combo?

    Random Thoughts For The Philly Game

    1. The toughest opponent today was the Seahawks. Dropped TD by Metcalf, Russ overthrows Hollister in the corner, Carson's two fumbles, etc. This could have easily been a blowout. I'm happy the Hawks beat the spread to placate the betting gods. 2. Player safety is applied unevenly. Last...

    We Won the Game and I'm Pissed Off

    I'm mad with the NFL. 1) You really going to have Russell Wilson ducking through a sack and you call him down and put the Seahawks at 3rd and 16? 2) Back to back facemasks on RW and they aren't called 3) Three SF defenders (two of which go for helmet to helmet) tackle Russ while he is giving...

    A Little Perspective

    The Seahawks just won their third 10 am East Coast game this season. They are 4-0 on the road for the first time in 39 years. Regardless of opponent, we used to mark down 10 am east coast games as loses in the past. Now they scratch a win out and it is doom and gloom. While this team may...

    12th Man - The Real MVPs

    That field goal at the end was good if you take five yards off of it. Rams have no timeouts and can't spike the ball and take a delay of game. Thank you 12s!

    DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 4-1 AND 3-2

    A little right turn on that kick was the difference between 3-2 and 4-1. 3-2 - everyone is wondering if we can get over the hump, if we are ready to challenge for the NFC West title next year. We are talking about being in a hole in the NFC West against the contenders and how SF at home and...

    If you spend the whole game setting up the run...THEN RUN!

    Pete's philosophy is to go all in on wearing the other team down with runs/body shots so that way he can run over them in the fourth quarter. If that is your philosophy and you are gashing them for long runs in the fourth quarter, then why wouldn't you run it? Seriously, this was almost a...

    What if in the playoffs

    The Eagles just won, Seattle would play at the Rams. This is the exact matchup everyone wanted. Furthermore, if the Eagles win, then Seattle would’ve had the NFCCG at home pending a victory against the Rams. It is EXTREMELY difficult to beat a team three times in a year. This first loss...

    Kickers are killing Seattle

    If Seabass hits the FG we win by 1. What is it with losing via kicker?

    Completely Conservative and Pointless Gameplan

    What was the point of today's gameplan? Seriously, sit on your nuts and watch the other team eat you slowly like an anaconda? At some point you have to adjust or let it rip. You won 10 games by running smash mouth. When you got smashed in the mouth at the LOS, you have to adjust. They did...

    Does your confidence go up with a primetime game?

    I already thought we were a tough matchup against the Cowboys, but now with the team playing at night. Watch out boys!

    Are We Playing With House Money?

    I've heard a few talkings heads (Brock and Salk mainly) say that the Hawks are playing with house money. Do you agree? For me, I can see where they are coming from, but I also understand that this team is good enough to make the NFC Championship game or even SB if everything breaks right. I...
