Seahawks vs Falcons: Week 7

[uwdawgfan]

WUT? He had a bad game but he's been one of the few (if only) impact players this year on the D.

Eh...1 sack on season. Kind of expected more.

Ugh, looks like Britt has a season ending knee injury... That's gonna suck... Especially when we play against the SF, LA DL...

Yah but LOTS of QB hits/pressure, and he's getting forced fumbles. You want sacks sure, but sacks don't tell the full story. And the other 3 guys on the line have done fuck all... so Clowney is routinely getting double teamed/attention. If Norton actually blitzed once in a while Clowney would probably have a lot more. Watching Seattle, the only one applying CONSISTENT pressure is Clowney..

Pete preaches that you can't win a game in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd quarters yet sits on a 1st half lead! WTF!

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Happy with a win but that second half was crap. Just once would be nice to step on their throats for a convincing win which this game should have been.

Been the same thing all year. We seem to only rush 4 and sit in a zone most of the time. Problem is if you're not getting front 4 pressure the zone isn't gonna work. I was definitely pumped about Clowney + Ansah + Reed, but Ansah has been a ghost (not like that's a surprise, it was a giant question mark after his injured season) and Reed meh.. gonna take him some time to ramp up AND Reed had a great year last year, but he's not a CONSISTENT threat at the moment. Let's see him do it a couple more seasons (which he's yet to do). I guess the only plus side is maybe Reed will be cheap in the offseason lol. Lastly, Collier? I haven't seen him all season. Is he injured again or just already a bust?

Collier needs a little more time, can’t call him a bust just yet... Hopefully he shows up eventually, not sure about the injuries he might have...

Akeem King was getting ABUSED today. Flowers has struggled at times but has been generally serviecable. King was not good.

 

[Screamin12th]

on the brighter side Blair looked good once again. Looks like he could be a keeper!

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Why was Diggs inactive today?

 

[flyerhawk]

Why was Diggs inactive today?

Leg injury of some sort.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

Leg injury of some sort.

Damn. Hopefully he gets healthy soon. I can't take this secondary getting hammered every week.

No Diggs and no Flowers was really tough.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

No Diggs and no Flowers was really tough.

Yep. Good thing the Falcons are a bad team.

 

[Screamin12th]

Hawks will need to go out and sign another Center. Hunt is the only one on the team right now. Sucks to lose your 2nd best Olineman and your Center.

That was a rough 2nd half. It was pretty much over by the 3rd quarter kickoff so you're going to get some human nature stuff setting in, but one of the worst teams in the league with a backup QB made it a 1 score game after being down by 24.

When Quinn gets fired, I hope we look at bringing him back. We have Clowney, Ansah, Reed, Bobby, and Kendricks plus a 1st round pick on a DE and cannot get near a QB.

6-2 is good, but it's really a reflection of the schedule right now. We have played 2 high quality teams, 5 bad ones, and 1 in between. All we have really done up to this point is beat teams who are bad and pulled off 1 win against a team about on par with us. Not impossible to see some things change over the next 8 games, but the biggest problem we had to start the season is still with us, and now we have some new ones with OL injuries.

Whispers about trade interest in Penny. I say do it. Not because he's bad, but because he's clearly not as good as Carson and I don't think ever will be. We are deep at RB...trade off some of that to improve somewhere else.

No Diggs and no Flowers was really tough.

and no McDougal

 

[Warden]

I bet you that the New Orleans Saints fans only whined half as much about their loss to the Falcons as the Seahawks fans whined about their win over the Falcons

 

[Warden]

Just maybe the Falcons have some good NFL quality players that are trying really hard too

 

[Anointed One]

I doubt Falcons beat Saints with Matt Schaub... That's the reason Hawks whined... Matt Schaub threw 450 yards on our D...
