Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

Jason Reid is missing all the drama from last year and wants to stir up some.

Yup. Jason Reid just wants to be in the story essentially. The days of just reporting are over

Ryan Clark cleared it up. Players are human. Laughter is how some players deal with a loss.....Jason Reid was reaching a bit. Shame on him.

I know I laughed a lot during that game, it is how I deal with being let down.

Positives are Kirk looked better,made some great throws and had some drops
Negatives are too many to list
Haz seems to be catching a lot of hell and I am not a fan,but when all your drives start inside the 20 and most of them are 3 and out and the opponent is starting all their drives on the 40 yard line,well your defense is not going to look good.
I havent heard it brought up about the chop block put on Orakpo that made him leave the game.He's lucky that didnt end his season.Looked like the exact same block that the bronco's did to the Cardinal player to knock him out for the year

So no one but me saw this?

^ I did notice that.

I also have noticed that Orakpo seems to get held more than our other pass rushers (and it seems so rarely called). I think it is partly because he is still too wedded to the bull rush, and he's powerful enough that some of the O-linemen are hanging on for life (wheras Kerrigan is good at swim moves and other things that make O-linemen miss). Mastering some other moves may help here, and I recall that this was supposed to be a priority this year. But the Redskins should take stills from every game and send them to the league -- they could probably show easily a half dozen egregious instances where Rak has been held with no call.

Perry Riley could have been allowed to line up on top of Wilson and I still dont think he would have been able to stop him. He is one God awful football player.

Perry Riley would not have been able to meet Wilson on the edge if he spied him.....but Keenan Robinson would have.....Haslett erred greatly.

A little look at Murphy's game so far... more in-depth than my sig. :D

These were all dumb comments. No one likes a loss. What, are you supposed to be depressed all year? You've got to like your job, like your teammates and they fought out there. We lost, and yes -- we still sucked in special teams, erratic on D, and our running game was missing -- but we looked like we belonged.

Injuries happen, I get it -- but let's realize that we're still down a starting QB, CB, TE, NT and our MLB went out mid-game.

What if Seattle lost Russell Wilson, Richard Sherman, Zach Miller, and Bobby Wagner? Would they be the same team with Tavaris Jackson?

What if Denver lost Peyton Manning, Aquib Talib, Julius Thomas..
etc.


There's no excuse for failure. But let's at least acknowledge that MOST teams in the league would suck if their starting QB was out. The Colts in the past went from perennial playoff contenders to 1-15 (Suck for Luck).. We just happen to have a good backup QB that's kept us competitive for 3 out of past 4 games.
