Sad to see we actually improved our team strength ranking after our loss this week. We sure have fallen on hard times. .nobrtable br { display: none } Rank Team Team Strength Change From Last Week 1 NY Giants 14.5 -9.20 2 Tennessee 12.2 0.00 3 Dallas 8.4 -2.40 4...
Congrats to Shaun Alexander for getting a much deserved second chance. I can safely cheer for the Redskins this year now that the Seahawks are dead. I really hope Shaun makes an impact for Zorn. I will be writing more about the Hawks soon, but I’m totally consumed by the...
Here ya go. Charlie Frye…yay....
It’s been really hard to look at Seahawks news this week. If a game like that doesn’t shake your confidence, I don’t know what would. At least the economy isn’t depressing too… As expected, the Hawks drop more than any NFL team this week. Interesting to see Washington out of...
Let’s take a look at some possible headlines come Monday morning: “Jacobs Leads Strong Giants Rushing Attack Past Seahawks” “Branch and Engram Help Seahawks Shock New York” “Seahawks Defense Brings Back Manning Boo Birds” “Punchless Seahawks Can’t Solve Swarming Giants Defense” “Missed Field Goals Sink Strong Hawks Performance” What’s your...
The Seahawks are 1-2. The Giants are 3-0. The Seahawks blow on the road. The Giants are undefeated at home this season. Traveling to the Eastern time zone is like a trip down the rabbits hole. Pass rushers can’t rush, quarterbacks can’t pass, and coaches can’t coach. So why even...
The Hawks actually move backwards three spots this week despite many games going in our direction. It is hard to argue that the Hawks are going across the country to face the best team in the NFL this week. Yikes. They will, however, bring the now second-ranked rushing offense in...
A funny thing happened when I started examining our defensive performance on the road the past four seasons. I had this hypothesis that the Hawks had rarely held opponents under 20 pts on the road, so I started a little spreadsheet to log every game in the last four seasons...
Cardinals lose. 49ers lose. Burress out. Aaron Rodgers possibly out a few weeks with a separated shoulder. Anyone that would say the Hawks should win next week is ignoring a lot of history, including recent history. If they can find a way to pull of that upset…man, we’d be setup...
Great win today for Jim Zorn, and it couldn’t happen to a better guy. I have stumped for that guy to be Holmgren’s successor for a while now, and was sorry to see him go. It was another example of why Ruskell is not someone I trust right now. Zorn...
I pointed out earlier that the Seahawks run offense and run defense are improved this year. I have often heard that having and offense practicing everyday against a strong defense can help the offense improve, and vice versa. The same might be said about more specific sub-segments, like a strong...
These rankings are a good reminder of how big a hole we dug for ourselves in the first two weeks. The Hawks increased the team strength by the second-largest amount this week, but still have not broken 20 in the overall rankings. Our next game is against the second-ranked team...
