Interesting article. According to ESPN stats and information, we had no drops over the weekend. They define a drop as "passes the receiver should have caught with ordinary effort, and only when the receiver is 100 percent at fault."

I played WR in High School and my coaches always drilled into our heads that if the ball hits you in the hands, you catch it but how much blame do we want to put on the WR? None of our WRs are elite. Rice is the closest thing and he didn't have a drop in the endzone.

Sando was spot on. In fact throughout the game the receivers made some great catches on bad throws. Wilson is the worst QB I have seen as a Hawks fan. And I have been around long enough to see them all.

Braylon Edwards also had an opportunity in the end zone. In his case, cornerback William Gay successfully walked the line between aggressive play and pass interference, disrupting Edwards just enough to prevent the receiver from extending comfortably for the ball. Was it a drop? Not really. Was it a play a top receiver should make most of the time? Probably

And by all of them, you mean Matt Hasselbeck, Charlie Whitehurst, and Trent Dilfer.

You wouldn't be making this statement if you had seen Kelly Stoffer or Dan McGwire try to complete a pass.

I can't even say he's been around long enough to see Whitehurst.

Damn Browns game.

Coupling this with the scoutthehawks article posted earlier (I suggest everyone give it a read) and I'd say we have decent reason to believe that things will turn out alright.

Worst QB may be a bit of an exaggeration but I said in another post he was the QB on one of the worst offensive performances I've seen. Without the turnovers and long returns, we get shut out. He had a bad day which is unusual from him. Without Rice and Edwards making awesome catches all game, this game could've been even uglier.

You cannot post that crap here. Homer has already determined that rational opinions with no agenda will not be accepted. ;)

They were not very good. But at least every now and then they could stay in the pocket and make a throw. RW can't and will never be able to do this.

This place is a laugh a minute. I love it.

I know it's not perfect, but based on passer rating he had the 171st worst single game performance for a Seahawks quarterback based on a minimum of 20 passing attempts. No matter how you slice it, it's a damn sight from "worst ever". Don't believe me? take a look for yourself:

http://www.pro-football-reference.com/p ... offset=100

The honor of being the worst Seahawk QB ever? Probably Steve Meyer. Wow he was bad. Career passer rating of 43.5

Jokes are best done in moderation. Just throw it out there and leave it, that way people can overreact at will. If you keep on making the same joke over and over, or variations thereof, it'll lose much of its punch.
