That was one of my grumpier posts, but I stand by wishing we would not use one day a week on everyone's predictions for the game. There are more interesting subjects.
I saw somewhere that Seattle had the highest QB pressure rate in the NFL in W1. If we can repeat that, hopefully helps our secondary. Tyrice Knight against Aaron Rodgers though is a mismatch, so watch out for the RB's leaking out of the backfield.
Oh man, I have a baaaad feeling about this game, especially if Spoon isn't playing and Love having a groin issue - if he's not 100%, that could spell disaster. I think the Pitts D is going to come out feeling like they have something to prove after giving up so many yards to the Jets. I hope I am wrong and will gladly eat crow.
Next Man Up. Our Trench D will be disrupting any designs, thereby making it easier on anyone defending the pass or run. Each of these men need to remember they are College Allstars. Play like it. Mike has greenlit the DBs to go after INTs. Volleyball tactics may go a long way to finding the Effn Fun in Football again. Shag and shadow each other.
I am looking forward to the game Sunday. I think the Seahawks have a big advantage on the D-line vs their O-line especially with that lame duck QB. Could see a similar type of game to last year's Jets game without the Special Teams turnovers and actually being able to run the ball this year and score red zone TDs.
My prediction is that it will be close. Going to grab some popcorn and enjoy the ride.
I also really want to see what the Hawks offense looks like this week. This is a real split in the road for me. Was week 1 an aberration? Or will wee see the training wheels stay on SD and only throw the ball to JSN.
I am hoping for a different offense this week. And please, at least just once target Horton? Down the field deep.
Frisco did what Frisco does: came out hard and punched us in the nose, as taught by Bill Walsh. It's their Legacy to him. We will do well to mimic that.
I think it will be a pretty interesting game. It is going to be tough with love having a groin issue, Witherspoon out potentially or at least banged up.
I was not impressed with Shaquill Griffin he seems to have lost a couple steps since he was last in Seattle
Metcalf we all know can be a beast and he will have the incentive. So I guess the way to beat them is ground chuck. Lots of runs use the clock up and try to keep their offense off the field.
You write about DK getting personal foul penalties, “It may not even matter that Metcalf knows that’s what people expect him to do because when he was on the Seahawks he had no problem letting the Rams or 49ers get in his head when we all knew that’s what they were trying to do.” I still remember his post game comment when ask what he can do to avoid such a penalty in the future, he was adamant he was not going to change his behavior. So yeah DK, please don’t change who you are. You are now perfect IMHO.
Assignment if Spoon sits out. Stalk DK from the sideline and trash talk him every time he does something less than optimal. Challenge his manhood and his ego and insecurity will cause him to behave as we know he will and is fine doing so.

Hear hear!
Well, Mike Mac has known all week he was going to be dealing with a depleted DB room. So maybe he has a trick or two...

Double cover him the way opponents did last season.

Refs give the cornerbacks a lot of latitude covering DK in the opening minutes. Maybe it is simply a dark-humor guy thing. Embrace the Suck, Big Man.
