It took almost three quarters to look that way and Seattle had a putrid pass D. Putrid. I wish I could get excited about a potential cure to our quarterback issues but I cannot. And if Dwayne starts next week it will not take long to cement my doubt.

You must have forgotten all the short fields Alex Smith has benefited from the last four games. Haskins wasn't the beneficiary of that. He actually drove the offense down the field...

It's easy to get better in pass D when you don't have to worry about a running game.

Watching the yahoo highlight reel it looked like the offense got moving in the second quarter but the redzone int ended the first solid drive.

I wonder if Haskins shouldn't start these last two games. Think of the confidence boost for the whole organization if he wins both and if he loses both then you know you have to move on. Couldn't ask for a better test than 2 winnable games with the division title on the line to see what your team has.

That is the conundrum. There is a playoff birth well within our reach. This isn’t a time to see what we have. We know what we have in AS. A quarterback who finds ways to win not lose. The only thing Haskins has that Smith doesn’t is a strong arm but if you cannot read the field or throw off your feet correctly than what good is a strong arm. If the season were over than start DH. It is not so you have to go with the guy who gives you the best chance to win. It is Alex.

Given the teams we play, and our defensive strength, i would say this is exactly the time to figure out what we need. We are a near lock for the playoffs unless you believe NYG can beat the Ravens. And if DH can't get us across the line then we end up with a better draft position by about 7 spots to pick his replacement. If he does get us across the line you can use rounds 1 and 2 to strengthen the team and pick up a qb with a 3rd rd pick.

Honestly, I don't think the team could be in a much better spot to really solidify the understanding of team needs to make this team a perrenial contender.

Yeah I feel like there is still this belief out there that the legion of boom and the awesome Seattle defense is still around because of their record. Their defense is a train wreck. A fiery train wreck.
Um, their defense has allowed 16 points a game over the last six games. They are not the same defense that they were in the beginning of the season.

I saw your first post. It's still the NFL. Holding NFL opponents to an average of 16 points over six games is an accomplishment, and a testament to how well your defense is playing. Throw the Rams and Cardinals in there too BTW...
