Game Thread: Seahawks @ Lions (12PM CST)

[Sharkonabicycle]

Get your asses up and drink your coffee you Seattle locals...

Offensively, this is going to be all about our rush attack as Detroit is terrible against the run and we're on the road with a healthy Penny, Carson, Davis. This provides the best opportunity for us to slow down a lethal Lions pass attack. The Lions did pick up Snacks Harrison but whatever... that's one guy coming into a new scheme. He could go off, but I don't think he'll transform the D overnight. This should afford some good playaction for Wilson who is one of the top playaction QBs in the NFL according to PFF.

Defensively, it's going to be a tough day for the secondary though if we can't get pressure on Stafford. Forcing them into 3rd and long will be key as Stafford is one of the worst QBs this year on 3rd down throws. The Lions most effective passing attack is out of the slot so KJ Wright will be a HUGE asset coming back and we will need all the help we can from Wagner and our nickel corners.

I'm looking forward to a game that might be a competitive toss up.

Not entirely sure why we have Penny returning kick offs. he hasn't shown that he is any good at it.

Yah, same. He was great in College but NFL is a different animal.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Man David Moore has really come alive. Is Darboh (our 3rd round pick.... ) even on the fucking team?

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Man WTF? 5 WRs and nobody can get open?

He just looks so lost and tentative when returning.

Yeah, I want to see those routes, cause there's no reason that someone couldn't get open.

Nice kick Dickson, still inside the 20... took a little bit of a favorable bounce for the Lions. "Lions will benefit off this." By like 2 fuckin' yards, bro. They got lucky it wasn't pinned deeper with one of the better punters in the league (top 10 net).

 

[blstoker]

Oh, that's right. Season of the political ads!

 

[blstoker]

Nice play there by Jordan

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Dion Jordan sighting!

 

[blstoker]

Why is our zone nearly 15 yards downfield on a 3rd and 9

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Wow.... Stafford is one of the worst 3rd down QBs in the league and the Lions constantly use the slot and middle field... and yet... we ignore it completely.

 

[WizardHawk]

bad defense

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

Okay, another 3rd and long with one of the worst QBs on 3rd down..... C'MON.

 

[blstoker]

All right defense, need to forget that drive. our d was absolutely terrible that drive.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

 

[blstoker]

There is no reason that should have been a TD on that play. Our defense was out of position.

Cushions, Cushions Fucking Cushions

And Clark has to make that sack
