No. This is not a rant about the departure of Seneca Wallace. Or about any of the moves that the Seahawks have made. In fact, Seattle has stood rather pat during the past few days. But the Detroit Lions have not been quiet. And they may have saved the defense in Seattle with their flurry of moves. Over the last week, the Lions have signed Kyle Vanden Bosch and traded for DT Corey ...

First things first: I do not want to put down Justin Forsett or his accomplishments. In fact, I think he could be a very solid and effective back in a zone blocking or similar system. J-Force is a solid piece to the offensive puzzle. He runs the screens and off tackle stretch plays like a natural, and he takes care of the ball. He can, and is willing to lower his shoulder ...

In one day, I've gone from excited and optimistic, to extremely disappointed, and back to optimistic. I was excited when Jim Mora was relieved of his duties as head coach, as many you know of my criticism of his coaching abilities. Then, when I heard of his "all over but the crime" replacement, Pete Carroll, I was disappointed. I knew of his past coaching stints with the Jets and Patriots among others, ...

After wasting three hours of my life watching Seahawk-Buc "football", and throwing up a little bit in my mouth along the way, I was infuriated. However, I wanted to take a couple days to see if I could cool off. I haven't, and I still come to the same conclusion. Jim Mora Jr., must be politely shown the door at the end of this season. After struggling with this issue over the ...

Dear Holmy, I want to thank you for your years in Seattle, particularly the '05 Super Bowl team. That team is the reason I ever got extensively into football. Now, I'm followingánot only theáSeahawks, but the NFL,áanalyzing players and scouting the draft class. I even started playing in seventh grade after that season, and now I'm playing Quarterback for my high school, and fought injuries to climb up the depth chart and ...

Over the last two years the 'Hawks have suffered a multitude of injuries. Both years have decimated our O-Line, quarterbacks, defensive secondary, and our receiving and linebacking corps. It's fair to say we've been injury riddled. But when did that become an excuse instead of a warning? Bottom line is: This team is composed of mostly mentors and past-their-prime stars. This should have been seen last year, however, I cannot blame Ruskell & ...

With the 2009 season in the books, its time to start looking at next year. What are our positions of weakness? The thing we lack most? The missing key that has been holding us back from stretches of dominance, outside the NFC Worst. The problem with the Hawks is in the trenches, on both sides of the ball. They lack enthusiasm. They lack will power. They lack attitude. They lack the ability ...

Over the last couple of days, I've heard a lot of whining from Seahawks fans over Darnell Dockett pressing a forearm to Matt Hasselbeck's throat. Honestly, it has been blown way out of proportion. I'm not saying it was the right thing to do, even in a rivalry game. However, when trying to recover a lost fumble, there are a lot worse things that happen at the bottom of that pile, even ...

"It's extremely unlikely Matt will play," said Jim Mora. Am I alone in asking, "is this really that bad?" The Bears' defense is one of the most aggressive in the league. Seneca is way more mobile than Hasselbeck. If Seneca makes the correct reads about when to run and when to pass, he could easily tire out this Bears defense. Expect to see Knapp use this. I expect to see a lot of ...
