Reaction: Hawks beat 49ers 34-13

Nice to see a win today, and a road win at that. The 49ers were just what the doctor ordered. They overwhelmed the Seahawks with mistakes. They had no choice but to eventually start taking advantage of them, and once they did, it seemed like the whole defense said, “Oh...

I’ve been through all the levels of grief, so it’s not quite as painful to post here. For the second straight week, the Hawks prove their place in the NFL by actually improving their team strength in a loss. We have lost to four of the top 10 teams, as...

Game Threads: Seahawks @ Bucs

As I write this, the St Louise Rams are beating the Cowboys 21-7. I’m also watching backup Bengals QB Ryan Fitzpatrick shredding the Steelers. Do these things make me hopeful we can pull off a big upset today or piss me off since other teams seem to be able to...

2008 Power Rankings Week 4

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...
