Watch (or listen to) (or at the very least feel) the Seahawks attempt to close out the division title against the 49ers and the NFL's newest rushing dynamo, Frank Gore. You can type about it here. And please read John Morgan's excellent preview below this story as well.

Myself, I'll be at the game, where Brian McKnight will sing the national anthem, and the halftime show will feature something called "Maximus Versus Bavasi -- Please Wear Protective Outer Clothing." The hell?

SEA!!!
HAWKS!!!

With the windstorm tonight

I'm not expecting good things. That means Frank Gore is gonna get a ton of carries, and frankly, the Seahawks can't deal with that.

Ah, but you forget....

That....uh....the Seahawks are angry this time! That's why this game will go so differently. At least it's at Qwest

Plus

Snelling was traded. That should fire the team up...

...or at least make all Seattlites suicidal.

There has been talk

about the falcons playing Vick at RB this weekend because Dunn and that other guy are hurt. Schaub would then take the snaps at QB. Good Move?

Whoa, really?

The Falcons would probably end up losing the game and losing Vick to injury.

The 3-8 49ers...

so bad that two teams refused to play them.

Good start for our D...

The Hawks really need more than a win tonight, I would like to see a good old-fashioned ass stomping.

ok...dont do that again Nate

not a great start for the guy I picked as "my hawk" this week.

Josh Brown is better than you.

wow

Nobody can control the ball right now. half a dozen guys had the ball slip through their hands on nates fumble, hassleback just threw a pick that the guy dropped.

So tkjinak

does Alexander look as bad as his 5 for 3yds would imply?

by John Morgan on Dec 14, 2006 5:34 PM PST reply actions

Yes

Looks like all he is trying to do is not slip and get hurt.

by tkjinak on Dec 14, 2006 5:42 PM PST reply actions

they are talking about how good sims is playing

he made a couple of blocks on shauns big run there.

by tkjinak on Dec 14, 2006 5:45 PM PST reply actions

Sims was a steal.

This isn't our year but with some savvy drafting and FA signings, next year migtht be.

by John Morgan on Dec 14, 2006 5:51 PM PST up reply actions

I guess shaun has settled down

looked real good on that last run (other than the fumble)

by tkjinak on Dec 14, 2006 5:47 PM PST reply actions

Hasn't been the same since those 40 carries.

Our RB depth is really say. Especially since RB is one of the most fungible positions in the NFL.

Engram

Is Bobby Engram playing? Has anyone seen him in the game?

That was a terrible call on Monday Night Football.

yep

he has been out there for all of the 4 wide sets.

How's Burleson playing?

Minus a fumble

on a kick he shouldn't fielded. He is playing well. He has made two tough catches were he was getting hit

maybe it didn't hit the ground. He might have trapped it against his thigh.

I wasn't even sure if he was playing last week in Arizona.

Stevens. Let's not muddy the waters, you just keep suckin' so we can get rid of you.

Stevens

sprawled out, pretty much diving. As he tried to bring it in the ball slipped and the point hit the ground.

how does our line look?

Our defense has been playing real well tonight.

by John Morgan on Dec 14, 2006 6:38 PM PST reply actions

line has been alright

not really getting any pressure on passing plays. Linebacker play has really made the difference. Lofa and Julian have been everywhere.

should be 14-0.

and its about to 7-7.

I think we mean Thompson.

they are reviewing the catch right now

collisworth says it should be overturned.

so of course

oh and WATCH THE ONSIDE KICK

to start the 2nd half!!!

the niners have done a few of those.

Josh Brown is better than you.

by MFAN on Dec 14, 2006 6:50 PM PST reply actions

So we are playing much better than the 49ers and

get the ball to start the 2nd quarter; despite an aborted 1st half, I think we will win this and by double digits.

by John Morgan on Dec 14, 2006 6:50 PM PST reply actions

The wind is a big factor

We looked real good during the first quarter with the wind, smith couldn't do a thing against it.

2nd quarter switched it up and smith looked quite a bit more comfortable. Matt still was fine but the wind knocking the ball down was letting the dbacks close better. I think we should be able to get at least one, hopefully two td's with the wind.

And San Fran isn't going to score any points on offense. As long as we don't turn the ball over this should be a pretty dominant half.

by tkjinak on Dec 14, 2006 6:54 PM PST reply actions

Hey John

to answer your question above

line looks real good minus Grey on one play. Sims on Alexanders run hit his intial guy and saw Shaun cutting back so ran out and picked up the LB. And spencer is looking better and better in calling out blitz and blocking schemes.

I dont know how this is only a 4 point game.

by MFAN on Dec 14, 2006 7:29 PM PST up reply actions

Its no where near as close as the score

San Fran has gone 3 and out every drive but one.

When we get the wind at our backs for the 4th quarter I expect at least 2 TD's

by tkjinak on Dec 14, 2006 7:29 PM PST reply actions

Wow

Jeramy got nailed as he caught that one and held on.

by tkjinak on Dec 14, 2006 7:30 PM PST reply actions

Is Hackett the only one getting open?

Where's Branch?

Hackett is being covered by a safety

he is pretty much getting open at will.

this does not look like a playoff team. We better step it up or it doesn't matter if we've clinched the West, because we are going to get trounced in the first round.

by John Morgan on Dec 14, 2006 7:35 PM PST reply actions

Its the wind

matt can't accuratly throw a pass more than 15 yards. They will get it in the 4th.

My blogpost is already up, I started it with four minutes remaining.

If they haven't gotten it by now, nothing else is going to kick them in the ass and make them play better.

They're done. The playoffs are still possible, but anything beyond a first-round exit would surprise the hell out of me.

The problem is, as a Seattle sports fan, I have to wait all the way until next September to hope for a chance to root for another winning team. Mariners? Ha. Sonics? Nope. I root for the Canucks, but they're .500 and are trying to get guys who haven't scored goals consistently before to score goals now.

So, looks like the only teams in the Northwest right now that'll give you smiles are the basketball teams of Washington and Gonzaga.

Sports and Bremertonians. Because we can.
