The Cover 3: The Seahawks Vs Ravens " The Matchups Zone
Well that was fun wasn’t it? One of the most surprising aspects of the Seahawks win over the Ravens on Sunday was the total dedication to the run game against the impressive Baltimore Ravens defense. What was even more shocking was the Ravens total dedication to every aspect of their offense that didn’t include Ray Rice running the ball. Let’s take a look at three aspects of Sunday’s game that I loved, and three that drove me nuts.

11/15: Size on Seahawks defense getting noticed - Blog - MyNorthwest.com
To an average human, most NFL players are big. By NFL standards, the Seahawks defense is even bigger. In fact, as this article published in Tuesday's edition of The Wall Street Journal explains, the starters on Seattle's defense form the second-heaviest unit in the NFL. In Tuesday's Wrap Up video, Brock Huard discusses the Seahawks' uncommon approach to building their defense with more of an emphasis on size than speed.

The Seahawks started the second half of the season at a disappointing 2-6, and faced the visting Baltimore Ravens, holders of a gaudy 6-2 record and first place in the AFC North. However, Seattle never trailed and upset Baltimore, 22-17 on Military Appreciation Day at CenturyLink Field.
Not all penalties are created equally - Seahawks News - MyNorthwest.com
A few weeks ago I wrote about the Seahawks' penalty problems. During their stretch of three losses coming off the bye week (Cleveland, Cincinnati and Dallas), the Hawks tallied more penalties than points. They continued their erroneous ways, committing 13 penalties in Sunday's surprise win over the Ravens.
Medical Roll Call Not Favorable For Seahawks | Seattle Seahawks
Rookie guard John Moffitt is lost for the season with a knee injury; Rice, Baldwin and Chancellor have a chance to play despite concussions Sunday against Baltimore.
Dave Krieg's Strike Beard: Seahawks 22, Ravens 17
The table of Ravens fans sitting behind me at Buffalo Wild Wings must have felt very confident (My Sunday Ticket app crapped out today... Long story). Their Super Bowl-contending team had just scored to pull within 22-17 with 5 and half minutes left. With a quick 3-and-out by the lowly Seahawks offense, the Ravens would have plenty of time to drive back down the field for the winning touchdown... and Baltimore boasted the NFL's best defense, anchored by luminaries like Ray Lewis, Ed Reed and Terrell Suggs. Only a fool would bet on the likes of Tarvaris Jackson, Golden Tate and Marshawn Lynch against such an elite unit.
NFL.com news: Ravens LB Suggs confident latest loss won't harm team goals - "(W)ithout struggle, there's no progress," Suggs told The Baltimore Sun after the game. "We're going to move forward. We're 6-3. It's not the end of the world. I remember how the Super Bowl champs were 10-6. We're not going to lose six games. We’re just going to learn from here and wherever the road, however it plans out, however we've got to go do it, we're going to have to go do."

Week 10 thoughts: After stunning start, the magic is over for Bills - NFL - CBSSports.com Football - The once-promising Bills are 5-4 after another poor outing.

Is Matt Leinart Better Than You Think? - The Triangle Blog - I didn't want to start this blog post with the phrase "Houston, we have a problem." But the Texans are facing a serious crisis — starting quarterback Matt Schaub is out for the season with a Lisfranc injury. Replacing him as the starter is habitual hot-tubber and colossal draft bust Matt Leinart, who quietly signed and then re-signed with the Texans last year after being cut by the Arizona Cardinals in training camp.
The RSP Blog’s Top 20 QBs (2006-2011) Part II (10-1) | The Rookie Scouting Portfolio - I do realize that rankings are important to many of you who buy the RSP and the process I undertake to arrive at my lists is intensive. However, as me, Chad Reuter, Matt Williamson, Dan Shonka, Wes Bunting, Greg Cosell, or any analyst of NFL prospects not employed with an NFL team will tell you, our rankings lack the context of matching players to a specific teams’ schemes, they lack the extensive knowledge of these players as individuals, and they lack a thorough understanding of each teams’ needs. Therefore, using the NFL Draft as a measuring stick to determine the success of an independent analyst’s rankings of players is a limited exercise.
