Logo by Kevin Gamache, Hammerhead I hate losing. Losing a pre-season game means little. Losing the battle at the line of scrimmage means more. The Seahawks were run on and could not run. They gave up sacks, but had just one of their own. A staggering 17 players, including 4 of...
The whistle blows. The beer flows. You know. Seahawks football is back. The team plays the AFC West in the pre-season, as they always do, but there is a little something extra in this game between the Super Bowl opponents. Denver fans, players, and possibly even coaches, will be approaching...
There is no way to say this without being offensive to Seahawks players who suffered serious injuries before Michael Bowie, but this one is a biggie. There have been a series of players going down with season-ending injuries over the last week, and not just in Seattle, but Bowie becomes...
OFF THE CUFF Starting offense scores 3, Starting defense allows 3 The team scrimmaged for almost the whole practice today. They ran Russell Wilson and BJ Daniels against the second and third string defense, and Terrelle Pryor and Tarvaris Jackson against the starting defense. The mismatches were apparent on both...
OFF THE CUFF Eric Winston is starter material It has been only two practices. Michael Bowie has not yet gone a full practice. Justin Britt is a rookie who should improve with experience. All these are legitimate reasons to question whether newcomer Eric Winston will start the season as the...
I joined the Softy Mahler show on KJR today to talk all things Seahawks training camp. ***DOWNLOAD THE PODCAST***...
Let me start by saying Tom Cable is one of my favorite coaches on the Seahawks. He stopped the never-ending turnstile of offensive line coaches and instilled a toughness the Seahawks had not seen on the line since Walter Jones, Steve Hutchinson and Robbie Tobeck paved the path to a...
OFF THE CUFF Offense not ready to function with Britt at right tackle Justin Britt was overwhelmed again today in pass protection, most often by Cliff Avril. You could almost sense the blood in the water when Avril stepped across from Britt and either sped around him or powered through...
I have been doing interviews with Adam Lefkoe of Bleacher Report over the last few months. I’ll try to remember to post them here now and then. Here was one from earlier this week about the Marshawn Lynch holdout. [CLICK IMAGE TO VIEW ARTICLE/INTERVIEW]...
OFF THE CUFF Cassius Marsh looks promising I am tempted to be even more bullish on Marsh after the burst and acceleration I have seen in his first two practices, but I need to see him in a padded practice and then against live competition. This must have been exactly...
OFF THE CUFF A very healthy bunch The team enters camp in pretty good shape. Most of the players sitting out are recovering from off-season surgeries, and appear close to being ready. The team feels younger somehow. It may have to do with players like Red Bryant, Chris Clemons, Breno...
Ending a season by winning a Super Bowl is hard to beat. There is something special, though, about the start of every football season. New faces join the team. Players get older. Some get better. Some get worse. New names emerge from obscurity, and familiar names sometimes fade into the...
