Thanks for the kind words, csu91. It’s certainly never easy to lose family. Now, let’s talk football. Great win for the Hawks today. Our overall aggression has really stood out for me the last two games, especially on offense. We are attacking on every series. The Bears played a motivated...
When you match up a 4-5 team with a 5-4 team it should come as no surprise that the game is essentially a pick’em. The Hawks have a clear advantage playing at home, but until I see it with my own eyes, I can’t believe the Bears defense has fallen...
It seems that the whole running game controversy is focused on whether Maurice Morris or Shaun should be our starter. I’ve got the answer: neither. We clearly have to have a starter, but we don’t have a starting caliber RB on the team right now, and I wonder if the...
The Hawks moved up a few spots due to the blowout victory. They don’t feel like the 6th-best team in the NFL, but there’s not a team below them that I don’t think they could beat on a neutral field. The Hawks are ranked #2 in scoring defense in the...
It’s hard to make any real meaningful assessments against a team like the 49ers. They have clearly given up on the season and are flawed on both sides of the ball. That said, I left the game with a few impressions: 1) Getting to a MNF game in Seattle sucks!!It...
Greetings on this windy Monday morning. Forecasts are calling for rain and wind all day. Are we still sure about that 60-40 pass/run split? The Hawks have essentially two problems right now: they can’t run the ball and they can’t get a consistent pass rush. Now, these problems lead to...
I will take a look at what happened for the Seahawks and the NFC each week and update my predicted record for the Hawks and the Top 5 teams in the NFC. I will try to do this each Wednesday. Seahawks Stock: NeutralPre-season Predicted Record: 10-6Current Predicted Record: 9-7 I...
Minnesota is averaging a staggering 5.8 YPC. Anybody else miss Steve Hutchinson? Detroit is really coming on. The current incarnation of the Seahawks would lose to quite a few teams in the NFC in the playoffs. The Packers are 7-1 with a 3.3 YPC on offense. The Hawks defense and...
This is a bellwether game for the Hawks on many fronts. OFFENSE1) Can the passing game find the rhythm it’s lacked since Branch went out in Pittsburgh?2) Will the offensive line assert itself in the running game? (remember when people were complaining that we were only running well in the...
I need a favor. Could someone please convince me that we’re going to win tomorrow? All my experienced Hawks fan alarm bells are going off with this one. The fan base and media has clearly exhaled after a misleading 33-6 rout two weeks ago and some misplaced confidence in the...

Don’t look now, but a couple teams are rising from the ashes. San Diego is all-of-a-sudden ranked fifth after starting out the year in serious trouble. New Orleans had the largest single week jump in team strength. Two NFC West teams now occupy the bottom two spots in SF and...
