Well at least the offense looks exactly the same as the one that garnered 132 total yards against a pretty mediocre Dallas defense. Consistent.

I that that he lunged across the 35, but the camera angle wasn't clear.

Or at best we're off to another slow start.

10 yards a carry against a pathetic offensive line is good, right?

Stanton at QB check, no healthy running backs so going with a 3rd down guy and no name check, Arizona looks like a juggernaut against our defense.

Predictable offense once again, run play where nobody blocks and gets into the backfield before the hand off happens, Check !

Has Bennett lost a step? That's the second time that Stanton has run away from him.

Always like to see the Hawks win, but I even if they squeak into the playoffs, what’s the point with the pathetic offense. I’m tired of bitching about bevfool and cable. This ultimately is on Pete. If this year isn’t enough to open his eyes and make some changes, then it’s only downhill from here. If the Hawks should be done today, Pete needs to be announcing bevfool and cable are gone tomorrow. If a playoff appearance happens, then announce after the “one and done”. As of now looks like that announcement will be coming tomorrow.

Appears there was some ass chewing going on by the D line coach to the D line.

I agree Popey, I would be happy to be in but come on, we are not a Playoff team. We came into the Skin game 5-2 and lost at home to a lesser team. Deserve went out the window.

Has Bennett lost a step? Is that a real question? Yes!!! All season long with an injured plantar fascia. He has not practiced most of the year.

That injury looks bad, hate to see any player hurt. Hope he makes a full recovery.

Yes, sis, it's a real question, and if that's what is causing him to be slow in pursuit, then they need to get him out of there. He's becoming a liability.

So every player that can't catch Wilson in the NFL is a liability as well?

I don’t know what you’ve been seeing all year, River. But Michael has not been the same player all year, largely due to injury... his and others.

Simply zero good excuse for 41 yards of offense and a single first down in the first half. None for Bevell, none for Cable, none for Wilson, none for Pete... run the list... all of them are pathetic at preparing a team to play or playing a full 60 minutes of football.

Something wrong with Wilson head. Pull him. Let him get his head right for next year. Honestly, I think Davis gives us a better chance to win at this point anyway..... Pull him, re insert when he can get right, whether that be in the fourth quarter, or next year.

Simply isn't competitive football in any way. Maybe a benching will refocus him.

No that wasn't directed at anyone, just a general statement.

The last few weeks have been some of the worst displays of Seahawks football I've seen in over a decade. This team doesn't deserve the playoffs. Period. I'll never root for the Hawks to lose, but I can say I wouldn't be upset at all if they did. I'm worried that if they make the playoffs then they won't take the rebuilding effort as seriously as they need to. Big changes are needed to the offense, and I think a loss and better draft position would be helpful to getting there.

This three game stretch on offense reminds me of that famous quote by John McCay of the Bux... he was asked “what do you think about the execution of your offense?” To which he said “I’m all for it!”

Well Pete seemed to be giving Bevell a earful as they walked off the field, one can only hope that the performance this year makes Pete re evaluate his staff in some areas, if you can't change and adapt in the NFL the league will pass you by.

Russell is hearing footsteps, gee I wonder why. He has no confidence in the line, no running game, and in self preservation mode, it’s never good when a QB falls down that hole. He needs a PTSD counselor.

I agree. While I want to win and make the playoffs, it’ll be a relief to put an end to this season. Case Keenum and the Vikes feel like the favorite to me right now... from the NFC, I mean. Jimmy G and the 9ers are beating the Rams 20-3. It’s not gonna be any easier next year w/o some serious revamping.

What is going on with Wilson? He took forever in the pocket, missing Baldwin streaking across the field for a huge gain, and takes a sack.

Notice they changed to a Power blocking scheme for the run game the second half.

A few runs by Davis and the pass game was there, Gutsy call on 4th down as well.

Eh, Wilson been rocked, but quite a bit of that is the same that's happened this game, and EVERY QB gets rocked all year, if you expecting not to be, NFL QB isn't the position for you.

Nah, that penalty followed by the next three plays. Two horrid throws and a negative running play to a converted WE instead of two running backs.
