but this is like the Jaguars game in ’05. Just a ugly road loss.

Carlson looks good as did Josh Wilson and Bryant.

Kelly Jennings had a terrible game. He has to go after the ball instead of giving the ball to the receiver. That said, Evans is very very very very very tall and Jennings is 5’9 I believe.

The secondary as a whole played very well until this blowout began.

Again, just 1 sack allowed by Buffalo. Where is the pressure on the road?

And this offensive line was also garbage, and a lot of the pressure was on the left or center of Hasselbeck. Hutchinson and Tobeck need to come back!

The receivers and Hasselbeck didn’t gel, and you shouldn’t expect them to. He didn’t play in the pre-season, the starters were injured, so the offense will be rusty.

Tight end position looks iffy, but as long as Carlson stays still before Hasselbeck gets the snap, I think he’s got a bright future.

You would swear this was 2004 all over again, dropped passes. lack of protection, blown out on the road.

Hasselbeck….nightmare with this pick as I type.

This was quite possibly the worst game since we started winning the NFC West, it’s opening day, we always start slow, tough luck.

As long as Burleson isn’t injured to the point of missing 2 months, this should be good. Remember, 2 home games and a bye week before the game in the Meadowlands. We should be 2-1 heading into the bye week with Branch and Engram coming back, because Engram and Burly are literally the only reliable WRs in here.

Horrible game all around, hopefully this is just 2005 all over again, but we win the Super Bowl. The 12th Man will be boisterous and there will be a beating coming towards San Fran and St. Louis.

can we bring in Jamar Adams to just play special teams. Also Forsett might have to play some gunner.

I’ll check in tonight

He offered no deep help for Jennings all day.

he was in good position. And when he was beat he had no over the top help.

But Placks’ knee injury affected his punting. That, and he has regressed year after year. Scary sounding but it’s true. He had some clunkers and certainly you shouldn’t be kicking to Roscoe Parrish.

Do it like the CFL, time to teach Mare how to punt. Placks has lost any distance his leg had achieved in his rookie season, and his accuracy is mediocre.

But Frank Gore was breaking tackles like crazy on that TD, soft Arizona defense? :)

I could understand ragging on Solari if you have to pick a coach (not named DeHaven that is), but the offensive line was terrible and this wasn’t Peyton Manning against the Steeler in the ‘05 playoffs. They weren’t calling 7 step drops or naked boot legs or anything, the defensive line for Buffalo was simply man handling the Hawks line. I can think of 3 plays where the ball was barely handed off before the running back was tackled, there was the Kawika Mitchell blitz where Hasselbeck was sacked before he took a step back, and the play the announcers highlighted when Stroud obliterated Sims. That was purely a talent issue.

Add in that the starting recievers were Nate, Taylor, and Payne, and then that Nate got hurt, I’m not sure what you wanted Holmgren to do. More dedication to the run game would have been nice I guess, but where would that have gotten them? Holmgren can’t just dial up the “no sack” play, or the “suddenly have NFL quality recievers” play.

That’s all.

Torn ACL.
