They're pretty much getting the ball in field goal range. If we could move the ball at all this would be a much different game.

Mr. Luck, here we come!

 

[bobflipaburger]

Wow... Nice drive, wasn't expecting anything that.

 

[bobflipaburger]

I honestly thought we were going to pull this out for a second....

So did I, then Ted Ginn decided to return a kick and a punt...

At least our defense is looking pretty good, especially run defense.

Pittsburgh is going to take out their anger on us next week.... Maybe they'll play so blatantly dirty that half the team gets ejected.

 

[LaceyBALL3R360]

other than special teams we didnt look to horrible towards the end...our offense hopefully will progress the more they play together

 

[LaceyBALL3R360]

no sacks was really disappointing though

 

[bobflipaburger]

It seemed like Smith was checking down kind of early a lot.

After Ginn scored the second return touchdown, I started laughing maniacally... then I read this... more laughter. I hope Portis has a good practice this week, because I could easily see him getting substantial playing time next week after Toast-is-us and Clipboard Jesus get injured by the rampaging stealer fans...

The sad thing was I was checking all the bootleg sites for a live feed of this game (because they'd rather show redskins or chargers then niners in socal). By the end of the first half I had stopped looking for a live feed because they looked to be getting blowed out. Finally they get the game on fox 'overtime' coverage and I get to watch Ginn score twice. I told my friend at the end of the half that both of these teams are so bad theloser would be the 'winner' of the Luck Bowl. My friend told me that PC would draft Barkley instead.

What makes you think PC will even be here next year ?

The good

Baldwin , the drive after half time , Earl Thomas and some of the D

The bad

TJ looks just like he did in MN , he holds the ball to long, stares down his throws, takes sacks when he should run, is not accurate and just flat ass sucks.

Flags , Flags and more flags ! It just shows there is no control

Where is the TE we paid for ?

One FB in the game , really ?

Hass threw for 270 and 2 TD's

What if the Hawks take Luck and the 49ers take Barkley? That would be really interesting.

I know you hate Carroll, but the fact that this is a rebuilding year and everyone knows it plus our schedule is one of the toughest in the league means it would be kind of hard to justify getting rid of him.

Okung didn't get hurt lol.

 

[bobflipaburger]

The majority of why T-Jack has looked bad is, well, because he is bad... But part of it, especially early on, is because he looks like he's trying to avoid making a mistake instead of trying to make plays.

Rebuilding year ? Where's the QB ?

This is building towards rebuilding. After this joke of a season is over we have to get a real QB and then we start rebuilding .
It may take 1-2 seasons for that guy to get it if were lucky, so its not a rebuilding year at all.. its a long term deal .

The seahawks are a company and that company needs to make money, I can't see this team putting butts in the seats or selling merch and the unhappy fans and boos are coming. Carroll is just another coach if we don't win , and guys like Cower and Gruden may be available next year , so never say never .

First thing you solidify when you are in a rebuilding stage are the lines. Bring in a young QB with a young line and you end up with David Carr. Luck and and Barkley seem to be pretty much NFL ready, especially Luck. Give the O-line a season to gel, we should be bad enough to get one of them this year with the QBs we're stuck with. When I look at this team I see a lot more talent than we've had in a while, albeit raw talent.
