Man, Budda should have been flagged on the Walker touchdown. Led with his helmet. I'm hoping Walker wasn't hurt.
It's worth noting that in that play where Parkinson lays down a great block for Walker, Fant's guy manages to pull away and make the tackle. In fairness, Fant had to hold his block longer and he did some other outstanding things in that game.
Was Lock really just a covid diagnosis away from being the starter? Carroll has said Geno led from the start of camp. At the time, I thought he was spewing nonsense but now I tend to think he was being honest. We know Lock has the tools to be a great QB and he'll show flashes of that, but learning to control one's bad instincts takes time. When he finally got his chance, he showed us what happens under stress during a game. Same as Denver fans had been posting. Hopefully Carroll can break him of those bad habits but I question whether it could have happened so fast. Perhaps we'll see him get another chance next season. Particularly if some team is more willing to pay for Geno than Carroll and Schneider.
I recall Denver fans mostly praising Harris. Many referred to him as the one played they'd have preferred to have kept. No one seemed attached to Fant or Lock. They seemed particularly frustrated with Lock. That was my sense of things. On the play in the video, he looked like Aaron Donald.
I know a guy who's going to the game tomorrow in Munich. Managed to get a ticket with a 140 euro face value for 250 euros because he snagged it from a friend of a friend. Friends of friends is a big thing in Europe. They'll invite you to dinner, give you a place to stay, and sometimes a good deal on a football ticket. The seat next to his was resold on ebay for 500 euros. In case you had doubts about German fanaticism. Just glad that they, like we Americans, are mostly channeling it into sports these days.
I can't find it, and already posted a quote by Pete on my last post, but there's a quote from Iowa when Noah showed up from George Kittles that Noah was going to be the best...or something like that.
All three are so important. Gotta find a way to keep them, but, more importantly, gotta keep them involved and getting better each week.
They're a key to our Super Bowl run...lol.
There were a lot of complaints about the Dissley signing this summer. Thankfully, ALL that stuff has calmed down.
Harris sling with the Woods resigning was when I started looking at the Seahawks as a threat. I thought if they could get interior pressure, allowing their Edges to get after it, and Penny and Walker running, that either Smith or Lock could make the necessary throws.
I watched film on Harris in Denver, and he showed up as much as anyone. Machines is glad he's gone.
The formula's working. Can't imagine how good Seattle would be with a healthy Penny.
I’m not so sure that they’ll draft a QB at all. I’ll look to whether the Hawks keep Lock. We don’t have a window into Lock’s continuing development--resigning him may well signal that PCJS don’t think they can improve on Lock in the draft.
Parkinson does the dirty work. Ever since he wiffed on a Watt block, he has been lights out as a blocker. This entire team has bought in to the idea of working from snap to whistle. Everyone is willing to do the dirty work. Lewis is improving. I just hope Blythe can hold his own against Vita. Maybe we need to sell out to stop Vita. Use two OLmen on his every play?
What many fans fail to realize is that QB hits and sacks are the result of the defensive scheme and the personnel. That explains the difference in effectiveness between Harris as a Hawk versus a Bronco. It's still a team game.
I'm surprised to hear that you "discovered" Matty F Brown. I asked him on Twitter where he learned so much about tackle football scheme and formations but never got a reply. Much like I just realized Parkinson is a young 'un, Matty looks like a teenager. And here I am at 53 years old, Googling terminology he uses -and I played football K-12, and have watched more NFL games than months he's likely been alive. I was downright proud of him for his questions in the Pete Carroll presser. Any idea how old that young man is?
I’m thinking they ought to offer Geno an extension right now. Drafting somebody and hoping they will function nearly as well as Geno has, in the near future, is a huge gamble with long odds. Geno has earned a raise.

If Parkinson continues to raise his stock, then perhaps Fant becomes the gift that keeps on giving as we turn him into future draft capitol next year.
I don't think we can keep Harris at that price and still do the other things we'll want to do. But who knows?
