the good thing about this for the seahawks in their quest to repeat is that like i said before,they have an advantage in the next three road games they have in the fact their bye is coming at a perfect time for them to rest and get that R and R.
they will have an advantage in their next upcoming game against the skins in the fact they will be able to take the time thursday night to get together to view the national televised game they play in thursday night.they will have the chance to watch cousins and see what his tendencys are under pressure and the offense can watch what kind of defenses the skins use as well.that will help.
cousins has not faced the kind of defense he will be facing when he faces the seahawks so he wont light up the boards like he did against the eagles who dont have a defense.the skins dont have a defense either which is why the game was such a high scoring affiar between the two teams.thats why both these games against the eagles and skins will be easy road games for the seahawks.
as i said before,the bright spot for the hawks in their upcoming 3 road games is they have faced their toughest test these past two weeks in playing against quarterbacks.
The panthers newton is struggling this year due to lack of losing all his starting receivers in the off season.
for the skins? I just covered them.
Now for the Lambs.get serious.a third string quarterback against the hawks defense? now thats funny. dont let the high scoring game against the cowgirls fool you either.after all,that again DID come against the cowgirls,another team with a horrible defense.none of the NFC east teams have a defense and thats great news for the seahawks.
I got to give the donkeys and john fox credit.they came up with a good game plan.the announcers were mentioning in the game why they were conservative on third and long all the time and they mentioned that was because in the superbowl game when they passed on third and long,Manning got intercepted so they avoided making that same mistake and it paid off,they did learn something from that game.
Plus the off season moves they made really did pay off.they made them just for this one game.I figured since the way the donkesy looked unimpressive the last two weeks at home barely winning was because they are nto near as good a team this year as last year but I think the reason they struggled was because the past 7 months they were focused on just this one game so they were looking ahead past the colts and the chiefs in those two games with their mind on this game the whole time.thats the only thing that makes any sense WHY they would struggle at home against the KANSAS CITY CLOWNS of all people.
last year it was a no brainer the seahawks would blow them out in the superbowl.the hawks were healthy,the donkeys had many key injurys.this time the donkeys had all their horses healthy and again the off season acquistions really shored up that defense.they did get more physical on defense like they were trying to it looks like.
plus it looks like the donkeys did a great job of disguising their paly calling.last year as you recall,the seahawks said they had success against manning because they were able to decipher and figure out all his calls he was calling.that had they not been able to they would have had a much tougher time with him on defense.
well this time they were not able to figure them out.manning and the donkeys cleverly disguised the play calling this time.the seahawks were saying they ran plays that they had never seen on film so that played a factor as well.
as Huggy mentioned earlier,if this was the superbowl teams from last year,that game would have been much closer and this game would have been the superbowl game everybody was hoping to see last year.
