Good Thing Russel Wilson was fantastic today. He started throwing the ball a bit high in the 1st quarter and missed possible TDs to Kearse and Richardson, but god damn was he perfect otherwise. Great decision making and accuracy the rest of the game and some key runs for first downs. ALSO wow, I never noticed before but he follows our RBs after his playfake is over and looks for fumbles. He was on Lynchs fumble before anyone else even noticed it had hit the ground. I have NEVER seen a QB do this before so consistently. I started watching after the fumble play, he does it every time unless play action has taken him too far away.
Good Thing Willson gets so open so consistently. Most players in the NFL can't get open. Willson gets open at will. If he can improve his blocking a bit and not drop the ball he will be extremely valuable.
Bad Thing Our D-line wasn't great today. Two sacks and not the best run defense at home against the Panthers is not good. Mebane and Hill are missed. (Irvin had an all around solid game though not amazing). Weak pressure all day.
Bad Thing Tharold Simon was picked on all day and who knows what's wrong with Maxwell. Byron looks mediocre at times next to Sherman, but there's definitely a drop off without him in the game.
Bad Thing Paul Richardson and Unger could be out a while. Both are important parts of this offense.
Good ThingSecondary, Sherman was great, ET was great though man he needs to hold onto the two picks he dropped, and Kam Chancelor has been THE BEST player on this team during the playoffs since he's been in Seattle. Also, I could have sworn Kam touched the 2nd FG and it shouldn't have been running into the kicker, maybe an angle we see later this week will show it clearly.
Good Thing Winning a playoff game is always a great thing. Blowing the other team out is even better and this was a blowout. Seahawks could have scored to end it if they weren't taking a knee and the Panthers were lucky they only lost by 14. Three dropped ints, two fumbles out of bounds, a ridiculously stupid penalty on Lockette costing a FG attempt, Okung for a taunt that kept them in FG range, and as I said earlier I think maybe Kam clipped that ball on the 2nd FG attempt which would take away 3 without that penalty as well.
