Completely disagree. I want to get in a shootout in which they cannot keep up. Their entire offense is predicated on smashing Lynch into defenses all game, then PA when they bite down on it. You make Wilson one dimensional and have to pass first, they look much more pedestrian.And with two Cbs out, why wouldn't you attack that? Sherman will most likely be on Graham all game, so I expect Colston, Stills, Moore, Watson all to get some very good looks


All this. I'm also assuming graham may get Sherman at this point. Awesome that they're down 2 more.

This will hurt, but I don't think it's that huge of a deal. The Hawks still have Sherman, probably the best safeties in the NFL, and elite pass rushers


Where it would hurt the most would be if you play a team with 2 talented receivers, one of them being a quick/athletic guy who they target in the quick passing game. If they get that receiver the ball quickly, behind the line of scrimmage even, then that would completely negate the Safeties and pass rush. Do the Seahawks play the Rams again this season? Because if memory serves correctly the Rams play the Seahawks tough, and Tavon Ausin is developing into that big play type receiver I described above.

Not sure how long Browners injury will keep him out.


I think I heard 4-6 weeks.

It’s tough timing for the Seahawks, who are already without Browner because of a groin injury. Browner is expected to miss a few more weeks and Thurmond had stepped up from his usual slot corner role to help the Seahawks cover for Browner’s absence. Jeremy Lane and Byron Maxwell will be pushed into expanded duty for the Seahawks with Browner and Thurmond out of the lineup.

The Rams are the last game of the season. Thurmond will be back for that game, and if I had to guess there's a chance that Browner will be as well.

I think this hurts the most against the Saints, so it's obviously bad timing.

Yeah as a Saints fan it's a shame the Rams game is in Seattle and that the Corners will both most likely be back.

There must be something wrong with you if you think the summers in Seattle are depressing. The weather is usually perfect, there are a ridiculous number of outdoor activities, and this is a beautiful city on a clear day (probably the most picturesque of all the large American cities).

And I wasn't trolling. A summer day in Seattle >>>>>> a summer day in New Orleans

I'd imagine summers there are amazing, as they are in pretty much any place in the West/North West.

Thinking about going work at a national park for the summer, maybe Olympic.


Not sure if I could live there for the winter though.

The winters aren't too bad. To me spring is the worst time of the year. It's the rainiest, most overcast and the knowledge that summer is right around the corner makes it rough waiting for it to end. I can understand someone not liking the winter or spring, but calling the summers up here depressing is just crazy.

I worked there for a summer and really liked it. I'd recommend it if you get a chance. And to the person who said that Seattle summers are depressing has no clue what they're talking about. The PNW has probably the best summers in the country.

Have any information about it? I've never been to Washington.


I've always wanted to visit, and figure it would be pretty cool to just live/work there for the summer. Any recommendations, how to go about getting a job there, etc?

I've been in the summer and it's great. Hiked up Mount Rainier and was in a t-shirt and pants with snow on the ground. Amazing to me how warm it is and there's still snow on the ground. Seattle is a really cool city. I thoroughly enjoyed the history behind the underground city tour.

I just did that underground tour thing for the first time last week. It was surprisingly interesting

Byron Maxwell for #2 CB & slot

Maxwell is a 2011 6th rd pick. The seachickens really have been targeting these large CBs. He also is 6'1" 235lbs


Maxwell is one of my favorite Tiger alums of all-time. He is one of the most physical DBs you'll ever see, just like Sherman/Browner. He's not nearly as good as they are in coverage, but he'll be just as physical in the running game if not moreso. The dude just loves contact.

Having said that, if someone like Stills can get a free release against him they better hope he has safety help over the top or it'll be a TD. Maxwell will try to win the matchup at the LOS; win that and we'll be good.
