Not even worth watching. Anyone with eyes can see how horrific it has been. It's amazing he is still standing up.

Sounds like some of this is down to Wade Philips out coaching and not just our guys getting flat out beat. Can't have these kinds of performances against division rivals.

I was at the game. First game since 2009.

A lot of the plays in that video had pretty good protection. Some were terrible, but there were plays that were worse than the worst in that video.

At any rate, you can't expect much more than 2-3 seconds against a defensive line that talented. Our defense not getting home in 3-4+ seconds doesn't have any bearing on this, unfortunately.

Okay Pete, In his first Season as Rams HC, McVey made all the necessary adjustments.
You've had Cable & Bevell on board for over 6 Years now, so there's no excuse for their LACK of preparedness, & questionable adjustments on BOTH sides of the ball.
A few more Holding calls, less hits on Wilson, More "Dirt bags" on the O-Line going at the Defense with the same ferver that they're being hit with--JUST DO A BETTER JOB AT PROTECTING YOUR MEAL TICKET QUARTERBACK!!!!
Firstly, you can't fix problems, if you don't admit, or even recognize, that ya got em.
Secondly, if you KNOW you have problems, and are UNABLE to address them, and make the necessary adjustments, MAYBE HIRE SOMEONE THAT CAN?
Whittle down Tom Cables duties, yank out the infected tom, er, I mean, tooth...What with all the crap-the-bed protection of Rusell Wilson + PATHETIC play by the Offensive Linemen under his supposed Expert Coaching, he's also in charge of the RB's???......Lynch sure made Tom's SHIT O-Lines look formidable, and in turn, made Darryl Bevell look pretty spiffy back when, eh?
If Y'all think that I'm being short sighted about them two, All they'd have had to do in the last couple Years, is take their expertise to the next level, and KEEP Russell Wilson from injuries last Season, and COACH the Offensive Line to make it a little tougher for Defenses to get to your Quarterback, hey, seems like the Jags & Rams O-Line Coaches aren't having any problems doing it for Bortles & Goff.
Are Injuries only applicable to the Defense, or does it also apply to Players on Offense.
Here's another booger, Thomas was getting on Wagner's butt for playing with a hurt Hammy, hasn't he too play with injuries?....Chancellor?....Sherman?.....YES, just about everyone on every team does it.

They heard it on Faux news.

Actually, the guy who provided the cutup video in that article is the one who said that. Don't let that interrupt your scapegoat, though.

What's ironic is that nobody wants to specifically single out Duane Brown, our free-agent savior whom so many fans clamored for, as the guy who's been struggling lately. That's what the article did, though. He's not been good. Whether it's his injury, transitioning to Cable's system, or having to deal with Wilson's play, he's not been good, PFF stats notwithstanding.

This was a truly bad game for the pass protection, but those games are not the norm for the Seahawks - they usually come at the hands of division rivals. Last year, the Cardinals' blitzing linebackers were absolute kryptonite for George Fant.

Joeckel was not a good signing.

When you say blitzing LBs do you mean Chandler Jones or Markus Golden? They're basically edge rushers.

We've also had awful protection against the Packers and Bucs the past couple of seasons. I'm sure there have been other teams. It was actually pretty bad against the Saints last year too.
