Missing BJ on defense and losing that LT during the game killed the Packers. Game got away from them.

what about when Seattle plays on the road?

at some point they will drop a game or two.

relax.

a little too early for all of this shite.

Green Bay made a lot of mistakes in this game too and their defense still really isn't that good.

I think saying Seattle loses 3 games is giving you too much hope....I'd say 15-1 is more likely than 13-3 for the Hawks

Green Bay's Offensive and Defensive lines were depleted, banged up, and just downright not very good. Their defense as a whole couldn't tackle well, and they got away from a power run game trying instead to go outside and beat Seattle with speed. Well that and Lacy got a concussion.

usually i would agree...but that was some impressive shite tonight!! Underrate GB all y'all want, i get it.....but outside of injuries, nothing should stand in Seattle's way of going back to back...Wilson is only getting better, which is scary

They'll fizzle out. Thursday home opening games usually favor the champions, unless you're the Giants.

@ San Diego
Denver @ Home - Neither game will be a cakewalk

tough two week stretch then a very very early bye followed by 13 straight weeks of football...

Chances the "entire" Seattle team makes it to the postseason doubtful.

@St Louis
@Carolina another tough two week stretch

Followed by a 7 week gauntlet

@KC
Arizona @Home
@49ers
Philly @ Home
49ers @ Home
@Arizona
STL @ Home

This team will lose 3 this year easy maybe 5....15-1

They definitely losing 4 or 5 at least.
Yes they looked this good on Monday Night Football against us last year, but look at the games they shite the bed in.
They have a tough schedule this year also. I'll be shocked if they go 15-1. Better chance of Richard Simmons banging the entire Victoria's Secret modeling cast.

Graham vs Chancellor
Sherman vs Colston(who he covered last year)
Earl Thomas can only offer help on 1 side to cover Stills or Cooks who will most likely be split on opposite sides for that very reason.

The man with no safety help is probably open.

Seattle will have to adjust to stop it...

Its a game of chess...if Seattle gets their cover 3 roof blown off they will scramble in game to adjust. Most likely forcing them away from their preferred strengths in order to contain what we can be.

In fact we are one of the few teams who should match up well with Seattle's D. The issue in our match up is Kenny Stills health and our Linebackers...Russell Wilson tends to mistake them for his play things.

Maxwell has looked really good, though. Cooks, Stills or Morgan will have to be REALLY good to win their matchups.

Sherman vs Colston(who he covered last year)



Colston was still beat up in their first game. He had 144 yards and a TD in the playoff game. Curious to see how often Colston lined up against Sherman vs. in the slot (which he frequently does). If Colston could put up ~75 yards and 1 TD with Sherman covering him for most of the game, than I'd say we'd have a 80% chance of winning in Seattle and a 100% chance of winning at home. Colston winning that match up makes things much tougher for Thomas, which opens things up for Graham and Stills/Cooks.

Also, another thing that no one is really considering: Morgan has 10 career receptions for 380 yards. He looked like a more complete WR this preseason while maintaining his deep speed. I don't think that we'll have a single great WR, but we could very well have a fringe Pro Bowler in Colston (as always), an improved Stills (640 yards as a rookie), an more well rounded Morgan, and Cooks doing his thing (which I think will be more about making things easier for everyone else than putting up great numbers).

We'll pretty much never have all 4 out there together unless Graham gets hurt, but the depth allowing us to keep guys fresh will be huge.

at the end of the day speed kills...

Sherman 4.56
Maxwell 4.43

Stills 4.32
Cooks 4.33
Morgan 4.4

We can get behind those zones

Colston is healthy and faster than last year

Graham probably remembers being shut down. He spent the entire off season healing and thinking about whatever problem it was then adjusted.

I like our chances especially in the Dome

This is why I was thinking about the the Saints mixing things up and putting either Stills, Cooks, or Morgan against the 6'3 Sherman while putting the 6'4 Colston on 6'1 Maxwell (though 6'1 is still pretty huge for a CB).
