Okung

[dude82]

So it looks like Okung officially has a bruised lung which could keep him out a week or two. Any guesses as to who takes over in his absence?

Monday in Hawkville: Russell Okung could miss ?a week or two? with bruised lung

Alvin Bailey. He did a good job in pre-season and yesterday. The only issue will be if Carp goes down and he has been a little suspect every other game.

Yeah I saw his name when I looked again. Not sure how I missed it the first time. I'm good with that choice. Getting Unger back would help as well.

Hopefully Unger is coming back this week. 3rd string QB or not facing that blitzing defense without Okung and Unger scares me. Hopefully we get him back.

and Helfet would be nice as well. Just line up 2 TEs every down and pound it down their throat. Let the defense take care of the scoring.

Pete was saying he felt a lot better today so there is still a chance he can be cleared to play....

Yikes. Okung and Unger are the only offensive linemen the Seahawks have that would be starting on many other teams. Going up against the Cardinals defense with an entire line of replacement level players worries me.

Okung shoving the trainer was a bitch move. I'm sure he was hurting like hell but that was still a terrible look, lost a lot of respect for him. Not that he cares about my respect but that might not go over well with the staff / front office.

Meh... the adrenaline's running really high at that point. I'm sure he apologized to the guy at some point. Don't judge a guy based on something like that.

This comment seems to assume that Willson and Helfet are competent blockers. I'm not so sure that's true.

I'm sure he was hurting and just being emotional .. It's not like he punched him, he just nudge him aside... I think Okung was having a hard time breathing and was ticked off at the moment... Hopefully they worked it out ....

I'm sure that was frustration showing on RO's part. Another injury.

Maybe not top notch, but even a chip block is enough for Beast to make a move. It would be nice to have OL Zach Miller back.

We are totally on the same page about that last part. He has proven his value by the way the offense has performed in his absence this year.

I loved that he rode in the O-Line truck for the SB 48 parade. He just has that mentality of taking it to the opponent. Exactly what PC looks for.

Nudge....launched 5 feet backwards into a player.....tomAto, tomato.

I'm sure he apologized to the guy. Supposedly he's a really even keeled. I heard that he was frustrated because he wasn't able to talk and couldn't tell him that he was spitting up blood.

If he really wanted to push him he would have sent him a lot farther than that. It wasn't a cool thing to do but it wasn't like he went full force at him.

Are you implying that Okung actually put something behind that ? That was nothing...
