Hey Huggy I can now see why your so confidant about the Hawks repeating.after looking at their schedule,if they dont have a number of multiple key injurys,I dont see any team having a chance to be able to stop them.as I said before,they can afford to lost Harvin for a long period of time just as long as they have rice in the lineup during that time he is out and vice versa as well.as long as BOTH of them dont go down at the same time and both are out for a long extended period of time at the same time,as long as THAT doesnt happen,I see them as unst0ppable this year.Lets just look at their scedule. having the same record as last year at 13-3.maybe 12-2.
1.season opener against Green Bay.
Rodgers found out just like the niners and saints have that team is almost impossible to beat at home.they only lose if they come out not fired up as they did with the cards knowing they did not have to win that game so as good as rodgers is,that 12th man and the fact they will be pumped up for the opener big time,this one will be in the bag for them.
2.on the road in san diego.
you kidding? my chargers lost kent whisenhunt their offensive coordinater to tennesse,whisenhunt was soely responsible for the offense being resurrected last year.as i said before,the chargers were idiots not to make him their HEAD COACH last year.He is the coach of the titans now.chargers will be back to their horrible ways again this year losing their home opener.
3.home to denver? you kidding? the donkeys will follow peyton mannings path and be afraid to face them again especially in seattle. manning will be TERRIFIED about going into seattle of all palces to face them when he got manhandled on a NEATRUAL field in the superbowl.
the only way they would have had a prayer of this game being close is if it had been scheduled in denver.that was the ONLY reason that playoff game with the ravens they lost was a close game for them cause it was in denver.
4.on the road in washingington ona monday night. You kidding? a monday night game they will be fired up as hell and RG will still be trying to careful not to open up and scramble especially against a fearsome D like seattle.
5.home to the fagboys. you kidding? Romo like manning will be scared to face the seahawks again after this game.
6.on the road against the Lambs soon to be LOS ANGELES RAMS. they always play them tough down there and they would have lost last year had bradford not been hurt so I am going to say this will be their 1st loss of the season.
7.on the road against carolina. they handled them last year and they dont have an offense down there and this game wont be hot and take a toll on them like last years did since it will come in the middle of october this year instead of early september like last years matchup where the heat did take a toll on them making it difficult to win that game.they will bounce back and their record will now be 6-1.
8.on the road against oakland? you kidding? washed up schaub will have the worst game of his life and it wont even be close this time cause now he is playing with the CHOKELAND FAIDERS so expect their new record to be 7-1 now.
9.Home against the Giants.Get serious.Eli just like his brother,will be so scared of coming into seattle as well he will piss his pants.this time the game wil be a much worse blowout for the giants.8-1 now.
10.on the road against kc. the clowns will try to take back the title from the hawks as the loudest stadium in the NFL but they wont have a good year liek they did last year with a much toguher schedule and bu this time they will be doubting themselves and lose this game,hawks will be 9-1 now.
11.home against arizona.
the hawks will want revenge for lasts years meltdown against them,they will be really focused for this game and no let down this time and they will at this point be 10-1.
12.on the road against san fran.
your going to hate to hear this but since they keep trading victorys at each others stadiums and the hawks will be due to be humbled at this point,here is where they probably lose again -although it will be close,and they now go 10-2.
13.on the road in philly. this will only be the eagles starting QB's second full season so he is still learning,hawks bounce back and are 11-2.
14.home against the niners? no mysteroy of the outcome here.no way in hell are they going to let them sweep them and beat them in their house.record is now 12-2
15.on the road against the cards.notice their second to last game of the season is against the cards again? since they beat them badly earlier in the year and will have nothing to play for knowing they can lose this game and still have home filed advantage,they probably lose this game and are at 12-3 now.
16.gonna predict home filed advantage is on the line so it beiong at home against against the LAMBS,they will win this game as well with no problems with final record being 13-3 getting homefiled advantage going to the superbowl and of course winning it again.
whats funny is even the sccheule makers have said its not the most difficult scedule of the NFL teams which is funny since they won the superbowl, they have only ranked it as the 6th toughest.not 1st or second.
Seahawks to face NFL's sixth-toughest schedule in 2014 | ChatSeahawks.com
Barring the injury factor you won't be far off the mark. I'm going to give the Hawks one more win.
Wilson will be better than he was last season. The defense will be an even tighter unit. Harvin will be a factor the Hawks didn't enjoy last year so figure another ten or so TDs that Percy will be a contributor in.
Kearse, Baldwin and Rice will take up any slack that losing Tate may have opened up.
Lockett will be improved so if any one of the recievers goes lame he will be a "good enough" fill in replacement.
I believe Harvin will play more conservatively as far as starting to realize that he is more fragile than playing with wild abandon will allow. This may even stretch his longevity thruout the whole season. The Super Bowl may have taught Harvin that just a handfull of good plays is all we need from him in each game. Just enough production that it throws the opposing defenses off and make them respect where he is on the field.
With the field being stretched by Harvin and maybe even Pryor if he turns into a RB/WR similar to Harvin Wilson should have more success finding the open man and keeping the chains moving.
As in last season the LOB should give the offense several more short field situations to work from.
What will be the Hawks biggest problem? It might be stopping our opponents run game. That depends on how fast the Hawks come out of the gate in their games. If we start slow and fall behind early.. a good run game could drag things out and make outcomes more doubtfull. In most contests though I see the Hawks getting up by at least a couple of scores and our opponents forced to pass which puts us at an advantage.
If I had to pick a game that might surprise you I will say it is the away game at SF. For some reason Kaepernick doesn't play well against the Hawk Defense. Even in last years win at Candlestick the margin of victory was only 2 points. THAT was without Harvin. My guess is that if Percy can last that far into the season he will be the difference in a win by a FG for Seattle.
