Lynch officially out Monday night

[Podunkparte]

Glazer just announced on the OT.

Not a killer. Rawls looked promising last week and hopefully the oline continues to improve without the crutch of Beast Mode bailing them out.

Better to let lynch heal up another week than risk losing him for the year.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Yup, best to let him get healthy and see how Rawls and Jackson do.

 

[Cave_Johnson]

Yeah Beast hasn't looked himself so far this year. I have confidence enough in Rawls and Jackson back there.

What sort of bugs me more than anything is that so many people are just assuming the Lions lose tomorrow. The near 10 point line on this game is ridiculous IMO. Probably going to be something like 24-20 and I really hope Seattle can get their shit together and be on the better side of that score.

Rather have these injuries tally up beginning of the season than late.
Losing Mebane hurts a lot more though.

Think it will be closer then we like, baby steps.

I think jordan hill has passed mebane, he should be starting over a healthy mebane.

 

[pittpnthrs]

I like Rawls and have confidence in him, but like Cave said, the game worries me too. Its not a give me.

 

[Judge Fudge]

1st off). GOD DAMNIT & FUCKING HELL

Spoiler

There goes any chances of me going 3-1 in my work Fantasy pool

2) I can see our sense of worry. This seems like a trap game. Coming off our 1st win, we play a undeafted Cincy next week in the Morning (Awesome because my ma will probably be doing turkey dinner Sunday Afternoon/night)

Detroit is giving up 27.7 PPG but the Bears are giving up 31+ PPG and the Hawks only put up 26 with one single offensive TD against them.

It's time this offense took another step forward, excuse me it's time for the Hawks to take their FIRST step forward on offense. This is Week 4 and they are now playing their second straight game at home and it's a prime time game. The Hawks have owned Prime time games under Pete at a rate of 13-1, oh wait That's 13-2 now. Need to start showing that prime time Dominance again and this is a good place to start. The Defense needs to put up another sub 15 point game ( looking for another shut out :P )

Wilson needs to get 250+ at 67%+ with 3TD 0 INT to make me feel better about the offense, Graham needs to have another 70+ yards and at least 1 TD. Rawls is no Beast mode but he is capable of 70-80 yards on 15-20 carries with Jackson getting another 20-30 on 5. Would like to see Lockett return a kick or two to the House :P greedy yes i know but really he is the one bright spot on this team so far in this young season lol.

What i want to see 48-3
what i think we will see 22-17 ( 1 TD 5 FG's by the Hawks )

Detroit just doesnt fit the profile of the teams (all two of them) who have been able to come in here and win in the RW era. They are a pass-heavy offense with a poor D and a QB who is not playing at a particularly high level. Those teams come here and get smashed, especially in prime time.

I think jordan hill has passed mebane, he should be starting over a healthy mebane.

Mebane is still a good run stuffer. Honestly, I think I'm more concerned about him missing tonight's game than Lynch. Jackson and Rawls should be able to carry the load for a game.

 

[Flammableghost]

I'd like to see a healthy dose of Rawls & Jackson.... but I'd rather see the glimpses of a future where Seattle doesn't have Beastmode to rely on. Where Wilson puts the team on his back and leads us to victory with his arm!

All the haters think the Russ is a one trick pony, a "game manager". I want the SUPREMEhawks to disabuse them of this notion! I want to see Wilson dropping a 50 burger on dat Lions ass tonight! Open up the playbook, and go Pacific Northwest Pineapple express style, Raining bombs to Graham, Baldwin, Lockett, & Kearse! #GOHawks

It wouldn't matter if he threw for 600 yards and 5 TDs tonight. His critics would just say "Detroit sucks" and that would be that. I've given up arguing about RW's merits and I'm just going to let history judge him.

Lynch out again for Sunday's game. I didn't expect him to come back this week anyway since it was a short week but I had hoped that he'll be ready to go since he was jogging before the game on Monday.

Another blow.

 

[Anointed One]

Best to have him ready and rev'd up for a run at our own divisional/conference games... Bengals game will be very tough for us to win whether we have him or not...

Exactly, I told my buddies after the Monday night game that if we are to lose, I rather we lose out of division and out of conference to AFC teams.

I don't expect them to win Sunday regardless if Lynch is there or not as well.

 

[JMR]

Lynch has contributed basically 0 this season anyway. We have a chance as long as we are putting our D and RW out there.

 

[seattlefan75]

I dont think a hurt lynch would do much especially the way this O-Line has been playing these last few weeks. Rawls is a descent back I think a lot of people put to much stock into the bears game because i feel that they bears were preparing the whole week for lynch and didnt think rawls was gonna get that many carries.

Its going to be an interesting game but I like the way this defense has been playing everyone talks about how weak the lions have been playing but this D gave up 0 offensive TDs to a passing attack featuring stafford, johnson, and tate. We arent going to be intimidated by dalton, green, or any of those other receivers

That's right. You did forget STs, that could play a part and most likely will. Seahawks have a chance and if they lose, it's not over. Rather it will be like the Chiefs game last year, looking bleak, but still in it.

Yeah, the ST is coming along nicely. I look at that as gravy though. A bonus. If we just don't make any mistakes (like fumbling a punt return) then I'm generally fine with ST.
