Seattle Seahawks @ Carolina Panthers

[blstoker]

looking like a FG unless something drastic happens

 

[WizardHawk]

at least they moved the ball and seemed to settle in a bit more on that drive. I'll take it compared to the first drives.

3-0

Our crappy offense. At least we're going to get some points out of this. If we were playing a better team we'd be down by at least a TD right now.

I'll take 3-0 in a game like this over nothing. Solid drive.

Am I the only one who feels like the Seahawks should call more plays under center? It seemed like every 3rd down on that drive it was out of shotgun with a 5 WR set, not even a slight threat of the run.

 

[SeattleOspreys]

He hasn't played that well at all so far. He's finally getting something going but he's been as off as everyone else so far.

He has to run for his life half the time.

We can't see the fact there's no WR separation.

Thus, the spin and roll out.

Not RWill's fault. He's a 60% completion guy.

40% will hit the turf

crappy offense?

 

[seahawksfan234]

God I can't stand these T.V. play by play guys. Not only do they not make the game exciting but they have nothing interesting to say.

one quarter of the first game in the books and we have fans ready to throw out the offense.

No, I think they should be under center. We aren't running the zone read, so our biggest strengths would be better utilized under center. i.e. hardnosed running and then play action. Right now we're at 8/12 run to pass.

Our crappy offense.

Wow, so quick to call our offense crappy? This is the same offense that put up back to back 50 point games and has averaged 37 ppg for 6 games. Offense isn't crappy, it just needs to find rhythm. I think the 2nd half once their front 7 is worn down is when we will really get it going.

I know right?
What do they call that? Fairweather?

 

[blstoker]

Nice setting the edge for Smith

That was last year and it doesn't matter. Call a spade a spade. They're playing like crap right now.

Amazing touch on that throw.

I've always been a vocal critic of Darrell Bevell. I stopped complaining about him in the 2nd half last year because of how explosive the offense became but I still think he could do things differently.

Don't let anyone know this but I feel like the way the 49ers run their offense is ideal.

Olsen has been open all day. Something I worried about.

Another great throw by Newton.

 

[blstoker]

Cannot lose track of Olsen, he'll kill us if we let him have those chances

 

[blstoker]

Nice play by Maxwell, too bad the ball went out of bounds.

Same offense....and no I'm not going to call our offense crappy. They aren't playing perfect but they have a lead and aren't making mistakes....be fairweather if you want though, just expect to get called out on it.

 

[gohusk]

Try realistic. They looked flat against SD, they looked flat against GB, and they look flat right now. Why pretend that what they're doing right now is nothing less than steaming hot garbage.
