Seahawks IR Leroy Hill, re-sign DT Craig Terrill
That's right guys. Terrill's back.
Does this reflect on our key defensive injuries? Well, Aaron Curry participated fully and is ready to go, Brandon Mebane was limited "but did all right", Marcus Trufant did not practice and is a game-time decision, Sean Locklear did not practice but is good to go, Chris Clemons was a full participant, Russell Okung is "ready to play".

I'm going to go with Tiger Woods on that one

Well, yeah...
If by “quick” you mean like the way an old lady in a walker crosses a 6 lane intersection.
You can't just acquire grace.
Grace is something you have…or you don’t.

Hill
Just when people were claiming him Pro Bowl ready, boom away he goes.

Simmons.
More talent, but less contribution already than Hill. Injuries, attitude. He could have been a rich man’s Lance Briggs.

NOOOOOO!!!
Oh, okay, that’s out of my system.
Welcome back, Craig. You’ll be churned off of the roster in a week or two, but you’re welcome to the paycheck.
Hahaha
That was funny and I really laughed out loud. Thanks for that.

NO. NOT TERRELL AGAIN.
I’m so sick of seeing the same rotation of hacks coming and going
At least Hasselbeck has his bestest buddy back
Who cares that he’s Terrilli-ble at playing football?
Hey, what did I do?
Oh yeah, I hear that the Seahawks are going to sign Brian Russell too…..or trade Brandon Mebane fr him if B-Russ is still playing for somebody. WE NEED HIS VETERAN LEADERSHIP!!!
Dude, Hasselbeck tweeted that Terrill was back right before everyone else did
If Matt wasn’t already married…..I’m just saying….
Anyway, it was going to be mentioned sooner or later.
Fiddlesticks, I have been uncovered!

I support us using L. WASH in the Wild Hawk with Forsett and a little Tate.

You should have never shortened Roethlisberger's suspension to 4 games
Just because he didn’t rape anyone in the last month doesn’t mean he should get a reward. You still have time to suspend the doofus for another 2 weeks for no reason.
We need Hass to have more productive best friends

wait...
his best friends need to be more productive? or he has to have more “productive best friends”?…

He's a Mebane back up right?

Mebane practiced

AAAAAARGHS!!!

What is the over/under on the amount of weight Terrill gained in the 3 weeks he was out of work?
+/- 15 lbs?
I would guess he's lost weight.
Look at how fast Robbie Tobeck shrank when he retired. I’m guessing Terrill will get smaller unless he works at staying beefy.
So I’m going “under”.
It's reported that Terrill "stayed in shape" while being off the team in case they needed him
"Pass rushers enter the world of Okung but never leave." - JM
Is Terrill bigger this year?
1. Insert obligatory, shirt-tearing wail about how the Seahawks staff is complacently hanging onto lousy talent (disregarding their 200 personnel moves in the past year).
2. Question: Until this season, I’ve been outside of the Seahawks’ TV market, so I don’t have a longitudinal point of reference, but when I saw Terrill during the preseason this year, he seemed stouter—slower, bigger, maybe more effective at the point but less effective as a pass rusher—than previously. Did anyone else notice this, or am I wrong about this?
This one?
7,500 USD for taunting after getting a game-time penalty for that too?
What’s ridiculous about it?
by Thomas Beekers on Oct 1, 2010 1:31 PM PDT up reply actions
Because the so-called "taunting" was taking off his helmet and "pointing skyward".
He was doing it for that friend of his who died.. That’s not excessive at all. It’s not his fault the NFL is desperate to fine players for no apparent reason.
Oh yes, because I'm sure that the other team really gets upset when you take off your helmet.
What a horrible thing to do!
I didn't write the book, my man
I just interpret what it might say if there was a book that we could read that would explain why such a dumb rule exists.
It certainly didn't seem as strict last year.
Is the NFL so desperate to make money that they ramped up what is considered excessive celebration? That is insanity.
Eh
I’m more upset that he apparently lost out rookie of the week to the KC TE
by Thomas Beekers on Oct 1, 2010 1:55 PM PDT up reply actions
Did you see that catch he made?
Incredible.
by Phil Hatzenbuehler on Oct 1, 2010 2:01 PM PDT up reply actions
One good catch does not a good game make
But yes, it was a really good catch. Not Moss over Revis, but still really good
But it puts you on the highlight reels
And that’s what it takes to win the Pepsi
by Thomas Beekers on Oct 1, 2010 2:21 PM PDT up reply actions
Both of which are even more impressive, as balls arent purposely thrown to him unlike a TE.
OOOOOH!!!!! That was NASTY!!!!!!!!
I thought his taunting was taking his helmet off and talking shit to the coaches?
After his second interception…it was rad, but also very fine-worthy.
And so we have reached the end of Leroy Hill's Seahawk career
All that is left is for the Seahawks to void Hill’s contract after the season….and I don’t think Q/PM would be in any rush to resign him afterward, considering how they banned him training camp earlier this season.
Well, that’s one less holdover from Super Bowl XL on the active roster. Bummer.
Hill's contract was renegotiated
The final years have already been voided. He is a FA after this year.
I guess they might release him from IR on a settlement later. We’ll see.
by Thomas Beekers on Oct 1, 2010 1:32 PM PDT up reply actions
I would put money on him signing with an NFC West team too.
Thats how this usually works. Fortunately he will never be healthy enough to play.
Oops, totally forgot about that
Jeez, probably a big mistake by Hill to do that (at least in retrospect).
To be fair
Hill hasn’t exactly shown a facility for making wise decisions.

You all realize today is exactly 6 months opposite April 1st.
So it’s sort of April Fools and a half.

that’s very vague.

So how long until michael lewis is signed?
by nickfru1 on Oct 1, 2010 3:41 PM PDT via mobile reply actions
By the Hawks or in general?
I don’t think we would be interested but this staff has surprised me once or twice.
What, sign him to a book deal?
Do we really need a sequel to The Blind Side?
(Yes, I know the 49er safety has the same name.)
Dunno, do we need him?
Contrary to common NN belief, we have had no particular interest in signing former Ninnies (though for the ones we did, two out of the total three worked out p good). I guess we could sign Lewis since I don’t think our SS depth is that solid.
Still, I’m just enjoying watching the Niners fall apart even more. Good times.
by Thomas Beekers on Oct 1, 2010 5:40 PM PDT up reply actions
I'd love it if the eahawks signed Lewis IF IT MEANT TERRILL WAS CUT AGAIN!
GRRRRRRR UNEXPLAINABLE RAGE!!!!!!!!
They're so...
funny.
Though they sink through the Sea, they shall rise again...Death shall have no dominion...
Whatever.
My main beef with Terrill was that he left on the roster while younger, better talent was let go. That’s not the case here, so welcome back!
Agreed
That roster spot would have just gone to another temp, so the worst-case scenario is that we might have had a better temp over the course of a few weeks.
I don’t seem to know as much about Terrill as everyone else here, but apparently he’s big and slow (the roster on NFL.com lists him at 295, by the way).
On that note, it seems that Bradley & Quinn have done better work this year in exploiting Colin Cole as the “defensive pivot point”, i.e., the run-stopping mass who’s not expected to move at speed toward the quarterback. But the biggest guys get the tiredest fastest. There are only 3 DTs listed without Terrill, which means they were one injury away from not being able to rotate, so the addition at position (if not the person) makes sense.
Terrill usually plays the 3-tech
the lighter of the two DTs in a standard 4-3. He’s not the fattest of fat guys on our DL.
Cole has been asked to be more of a 2-gap player this year, rather than a penetrating 1-gap DT, which seems to play to his strength.
by Greetings from the Lord Humongous! on Oct 2, 2010 1:53 PM PDT up reply actions
I wouldn't be surprised to see Terrill cut again when Mebane is 100%
Makes sense to IR Hill especially considering the looming suspension even if he was healthy he was going to miss games.
By the way
I’m pretty sure we still have an open roster spot, and did not in fact need to IR Hill to sign Terrill, strictly speaking.
I guess we’re still going to sign Gibson off of PS.
We sure are lucky that Terrill wasn't snatched right up as a FA.
Good thing no one has even bothered to give him a workout, we know he’ll be fresh!
