Cant wait for football to start. Lifelong Seahwks fan here. Its gonna be tougher in the NFC west this season but I believe if the Seahawks can stay reasonably healthy that it is theres to lose once again. There off-season moves were decent for a high payroll team. Getting Kerney and Deion Grant should improve a underrated D. The one thing that concerns me is D-tackle, they gave up alot of yards rushing up the middle and did nothing to address that issue so hopefully they have no injuries there. There offence should be fine and I hope Branch can show something this year. Glad to see Jackson and Stephens gone, they have dropped to many big passes to give them anymore chances. Look for Hacket to step up big time with more oppurtunities. Overall I think with the expirience on this team they have a shot of going to the superbowl again but they cant have the injuries to the extent they had last year.

Weeeeeeee 20-6. Looks like I am the only hawks fan around these parts but I so pumped for this season. There D looked really good once they made some early adjustmensts. Kerney looked very good and the new safeties should deffinatly improve them. I think Pollard might be the steal of the off season though as he will get alot of those short <10 yard dump offs that others in the past kept dropping. If they stay relatively healthy on the D side and there offence gets back into top form they should be right up there in the NFC.

Long time Seyhawks fan here. I don't follow Football as closely as hockey, but Alexander will have a massive season this year.

[Interjection]

Haha, first post.

I am also a lifelong seahawks fan...well...since I was like 5 so...15 years.

Anyway, I do love our team this year, I love the way Pollard plays, and his performance in the season opener I think is just signifying more good things to come.

I like the fact that Mo Morris is getting more playing time too, I am not a big fan of Alexanders, I think he gets caught up looking for holes when he needs to be getting yards. I think losing Hutchinson makes him have to change his running style. If you watched the season opener you saw a lot of waiting going on. Mo Morris gives a different kind of running, which I think is good for getting yardage, and might help Alexanders style work better.

Deion Branch is a good player, and I like the pickup. I really hope the season opener was just a fluke, and Hasselbeck can find him more often, I think he is way too good of a player, and way too expensive to not get a lot more looks then he got against the Bucs.

Agree with your points about alexander Interjection. Any running back looks good when he untouched for the first 5 yards like he was with Hutchison. I was actually hoping they would bring in a big short yard RB as shaun always seems to get stuffed on 3rd and 1.


Seattle -2.5 @ Arizona.
Cant believe the line is that low. Arizona is better but there young offence looked shaky against the niners. With Seattles pass rush Cards better hope they can run the ball and dont get into alot of obvious passing downs. Seattles offence will get better than last week. I say Seattle 24-13.


And yes Fryer I am still bitter of the Superbowl loss. When you are a lifetime fan of team with a pathetic history and they finnally put it together one year and make a Superbowl you hope they get a fair shot at it. There were major blunders by the refs that werent corrected with replay. Would it have made a diffrence in the outcome? Maybe. Seattles a way better team when they dont have to play 1 dimensional which happened because they got down so early.

I 2nd this.

I guess you can be bitter, since I'm still happy about our win.

I'm also a huge Seahawks fan and partial season ticket holder, and even I am sick to fucking death of hearing Seahawks fans whine about losing the Super Bowl. Yeah, it was the worst day of my life as a football fan, but to be honest, a lot of that was because the Seahawks failed to convert when they had chances. Would the outcome have been different if some of the bad calls were overturned? Maybe. But would the outcome have been different if the Seahawks didn't play like garbage? Definitely.

I think it's funny you make yourself feel better about a superbowl loss with a wild card game win

[BigDMcGee]

Wow, still crying?

I don't give two craps about the seahawks, but they got bent over in that superbowl. If you were a fan of a team that got fcked like that in a championship game, you'd never let it go, I don't blame him

That wasn't me making myself feel better about the superbowl loss. I'm over the superbowl loss. I'm still basking in the glory of that play. They're unrelated.

They are related, the Seahawks were in both

I don't blame him, but that doesn't mean I can't keep bringing it up/giving SEA fans shit for it, right?

[grocery_mony]

So pathetic! One thing that really pisses me off about the seahawks is there notorious slow starts over the last couple of years. Cant spot teams a 17-0 lead and expect to win many.And where was the preasure on Leinart? 90% of the time they only rushed 4 against a young qb you should put the heat on him and make him earn his completions.
