The Morning After: Seahawks Fail Test Versus Bucs

Tale of the Tape: Bucs Bring Measuring Stick To Seattle

No matter what an NFL coach or player tells you, not every game is equal. Beating the Saints, even by 31 points, does not prove a lot about what your team is capable of accomplishing. Seattle won their fair share of those types of games last season, albeit rarely by...

The Morning After: Seahawks Escape Arizona With 3rd Straight Win

Seattle opened this season with a crushing loss to the rival 49ers at home. They not only lost, but they did so impersonating another team on offense. There was one play action pass attempt. They operated mostly out of shotgun. Sam Darnold was given an ultra-conservative game plan that had...

Tale of the Tape: Cardinals Defense Will Make Seahawks Work

Two teams desperate for a division win will clash in Glendale Thursday night as the Seahawks travel to take on the Arizona Cardinals. Both squads lost their first divisional game to the 49ers. Both were close losses that easily could have, and probably should have, gone the other way. Arizona...

Tale of The Tape: Saints Come Marching In

Tale of the Tape: Steelers & Seahawks May Look Very Different In Week 2

The Morning After: Seahawks Make Skeptics Look Like Prophets, Lose 17-13

Week one of the NFL season is is misleading. The first Seahawks Super Bowl team in 2005 got walloped by the Jacksonville Jaguars to start that year. The first Seahawks team to win a ring needed a miraculous late touchdown pass to Jermaine Kearse to escape the Carolina Panthers, 12-7....

The Morning After: Seahawks Make Pundits Hedge

Winning or losing a preseason game has almost no bearing on what will happen in the regular season. That is what national analysts are clinging to after their superficial skewering of the Seahawks all off-season is beginning to look foolish. Forget the 35 touchdowns Sam Darnold threw last year.
