Seattle game will be a good litmus test for our offense

I am not sure how I feel about opening up against one of the leagues best defenses All the questions about Shula, Cam,our OL and wide receivers will be answered on Sunday.

 

Two of the knocks on Cam are finding other receivers not named Steve Smith and his accuracy especially under pressure . Lets hope Cam will show patience and not force the ball which results in turnovers.

 

Shula"s test will likely result from Seattle's run defense. Can Shula shake his reputation from Bama and Tampa and come up with packages creative enough to sustain drives? 

 

Most everyone agrees that out OL appears less than talented enough. Does G-Man know something he is not telling us? Or is this his idea of a bad joke?

 

If Lafell disappears is Rivera smart enough to pull him in favor of Hixon, Ginn, and Edwards? I hope so.

 

Will Steve Smith be ejected for breaking the face of Sherman before the game is over? More than likely

 

If this depressing please remember our defense can win games.

Our biggest problem under Rivera has been slow starts. Seattle is highly regarded across the country as one of the top power house teams. Since it is game 1, Seattle can expose us for what we are. Seattle is a hard hitting hard working team so we will know if Rivera has prepared us for battle this year.

Will we compete this season? While a win or loss won't guarantee a good or bad season I think this game will be a much better gauge of what Shula will bring and what our offense will look like this season.

I actually like it.

Sherman is gonna talk his way into getting burnt like Fred Smoot use to do with Washington... Poor guy ... Smoot never recovered after Smitty burnt his azz and literally broke his ankles.

Sherman isn't Smoot.

at this point, you gotta give Sherman the edge in that matchup.

Smoot was with Minny when he got his soul butt fuged. Jesus Smitty went nuts.

Yeah...lol that was the beginning of the end for Smoot. Steve destroyed and exposed Smoot for talking to much noise.. All signs point to Sherman being that same big mouth corner. He is a better defender but that trash talk is not gonna help him against Smitty.

I don't give any CB the edge against Smitty in this league. The better they are, the better and more angry Smith plays.

The 34 year old version?

Sherman is one of the few I would. Heck, he might be the only one.

Sherman is just a good matchup for Smitty on top of being a top CB.

He is physical and he wants Smitty to get into the extra junk.

Score is Sherman 1, Smith 0.

Sherman couldn't of kept with the 2005 era Smith but that means nothing now

Espescially at 34. He reminds me of an older guy playing pickup basketball. Uses his body way more and pushes people around.'

 

Hey Panthro!

    • These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.
    • If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
    • I saw Brooks maybe a few weeks ago, he was walking pretty normally. of course he wasnt running, jumping and cutting.
