I joined the Steve Sandmeyer Show today on CBS Sports Radio, 1090 The Fan to talk about the current state of the Seahawks, and where to go from here. Download this episode (right click and save) Brian Nemhauser...
Logo by Kevin Gamache, Hammerhead When a loved one dies unexpectedly, the natural reaction is to grasp for reasons it happened; to imply some sense of control by explaining why this terrible thing did not have to occur. It is a dangerous emotional place to be because one can get lost...
Seahawks’ RB Christine Michael is active for the first time all season today at St. Louis, along with rookie WR Kevin Norwood. Percy Harvin’s jettisoning to the Jets (that wasn’t on purpose, I swear) has resulted in all Seahawk receivers being active today. Norwood could be an intriguing x-factor for...
The passenger sitting next to me smiled broadly as she shared stories about Sidney Rice and his entrepreneurial ways. “He probably makes more money from his businesses than he does playing football,” she marveled. Her face soured, however, when I offered the sentiment that it was nice cheering for a...
The Seahawks have traded WR Percy Harvin for a conditional mid-round draft pick, according the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. While there are many details we don’t know yet, this move reeks of unrest behind the scenes. The Seahawks haven’t been themselves this year on either side of the ball, but...

Coach Pete Carroll revealed today that MLB Bobby Wagner, C Max Unger, and TE Zach Miller will all miss Sunday’s game in St. Louis due to injuries. Miller is still a week away from fully recovering from a small ankle procedure he had during the bye week. Unger is dealing...
The Seahawks have re-signed defensive tackle Greg Scruggs today, and waived safety Steven Terrell in a corresponding move. This is encouraging news for the health of Kam Chancellor, despite his recent hip injury and recurring bone spur issue in his ankle. Ideally, Scruggs will now get his chance to get...
Seahawks fans frustrated by the lack of emphasis on the running game may want to take a look at these numbers. Pete Carroll continues to talk about how their offense is still built around running the ball, but their play-calling actions do not support his words. Seattle has shifted dramatically...
THIS WEEK Seattle takes a predictable fall this week all the way down to ninth, losing more team strength than any other team. Arizona, despite being tops in the division, is falling in the rankings down to 14th. The Cardinals actually have a negative passer rating differential (88.1 vs. 91.2),...
