Game Thread: Seattle Seahawks @ Atlanta Falcons (Divisional Round)

Damn that was an impressive drive!

Perfect drive 89 yds and ate up a lot of time.

Prefect start. Long time consuming drive topped with a TD. Beautiful, just excellent way to start. Now a turnover by the Falcons offense would be soooooo sweet.

Best opening drive all year

Best opening drive all year

Nice time for that.....

Best opening drive all year

That's the best opening drive I've seen them have since Wilson came aboard. Looked like a machine.

 

[gohusk]

That was a false start from the entire left side of the falcons line.

 

[gohusk]

So sick of getting killed on those underneath routes.

 

[WizardHawk]

I'll honestly be shocked if this defense forces them to punt more than once this game. Falcons are going to get no less than 3 every time they touch the ball. And we are going to keep on giving them free yards.

 

[pistlpete]

Wow... half an hour of real time, and the quarter is over. This game is moving very fast.

 

[Logicallylethal]

Falcons will get theirs that's expected. This offense is too good not to move the ball. Defense will make 3-4 crucial plays though either forcing a turnover or getting a 4th down stop (Falcons love going for it on 4th when they're driving in opposing territory)

Russ and the offense will need to continue to produce points all game

 

[WizardHawk]

No red zone D at all.

None.

 

[Wedgie]

Defensive line needs to nut up

 

[Destroydacre]

Yeah, the defense is definitely gonna have to step up and make a few plays. Hopefully the offense can keep it going.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Defensive line needs to nut up

Yup, need to hit Ryan regularly to stop their offense.

 

[Logicallylethal]

Defense needs to figure out how to defend Julio Jones in that 2 wr bunch. The scheme is great move by Dan Quinn. It takes Sherman away from the line of scrimmage and takes away his ability to play press.

 

[DunceKaep]

7-7

At this point I'll take it.
Really loved the play calls in the opening drive.

Think we need to 'take a chance' defensively.

We play the strategy of the first drive, ATL will continue to expose Sea D. Take some chances/please.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Nice return by Hester ad no flag, cool.

 

[gohusk]

Hester! We get the bottom of his tank but there's still a little bit of high octane in there.

 

[pistlpete]

J Jones lighting it up so far..maybe need to jam the dude on the line-of-scrimmage before he gets into his pattern?
