10 minute comedy plays
Copyright © 2008 Ed Bagley
Just when Seattle's Mike Holmgren begins his final year as head coach, the Seahawks faced now and how everything appears to be a Larry, Curly and Mo comedy
After dusting off the Minnesota Vikings 34-17 in their first game of pre-season 2008 on the road in Minneapolis, the Seahawks narrowly escaped defeat in his first preseason game against the Chicago Bears, winning 29-26 in an error screen subjects ineptitude. To the faithful, the Seahawks, it was laughable.
There are great hopes to Seattle this year, especially since Holmgren enters his final year after win a division title in the AFC West, NFC wild card a square, 4 consecutive championships NFC West Division (2004 to 2007), an NFC championship and the Seahawks to their first appearance in the Super Bowl in 2005, quickly lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 21-10.
Against Minnesota, the Seahawks became in ballhawks, forcing 5 fumbles, recovered 4 and ripped a interception. Quart backup Seneca Wallace completed 15 of 20 passes with 3 touchdowns boot after Matt Hasselbeck looked solid in the first two rounds of Part.
Against Chicago, the Seahawks were on both sides of another planet.
In the positive side, their 7th round selection of the Place of Georgia kicker Brandon Coutu, a 5-for-5, including the game-winning 36-yarder in overtime to win. Seattle other 7th round pick in California, 5 feet 8 Justin Forseti, collected all the 261 yards from the goal? excluding cost of 50 yards called back for holding? and all the 136 yards rushing for his future when he played in the second half.
Coutu is a backup to Olindo Mare, a veteran former Pro-Bowl 12 seasons with the Dolphins Miami and New York Giants. Forsett is 4th on the depth chart behind running back Maurice Morris, Julius Jones and TJ Duckett. Jones (Dallas Cowboys) and Duckett (from Detroit Lions) are new trucks this year to replace the release of former All-Pro and MVP of the 2005 NFL Player Shaun Alexander.
In 2005 became the first player in NFL history to score 19 touchdowns rushing and receiving in only 10 games. This mark eventually helped break the single brand of the NFL season with 27 touchdown passes. Alexander, bothered by injuries the past two seasons, was a best leading broker in the Seattle all-time list with 7.817 yards and 89 touchdowns in 5 seasons.
From wrong side, the Seahawks had to exceed 2 blocked punt and an interception return for a touchdown finally win at home. Third QB Charlie Fry completed 20 of his 35 passes but was intercepted 3 times. Seattle has won because the Bears' Pro Bowl kicker lost place a potential winner of game 47 yards in regulation time expired.
Seattle is excited about the new 2nd-round draft choice John Carlson of Notre Dame. West Coast Offense Holmgren urgently needs a tight end, who could play effectively.
The addition of veteran guard and former Pro Bowler Mike Wahle from Carolina Panthers should strengthen the offensive line was excellent in 2005 and became much less with the departure of guard Steve Hutchinson to the Minnesota Vikings. Hutchinson, was unstoppable with Walter Jones, Seahawks first class side is a time of 8 Pro Brownlie and 6-time All-Pro.
Unfortunately, the Seahawks underestimated the positive locker room presence Hutchinson, who has established a leadership role that has been belied.
While Seattle seems stable in their transition training (Jim Mora, now assistant head coach and defensive backs coach, will replace Holmgren next year), there are a lot of volume business between the coaches.
The Seahawks have added Mike Solari, Kansas City (the new offensive line coach), Bill Lazor Washington Redskins (new quarterbacks coach), Kasey Dunn of the University of Maryland (new running backs coach) and Mike DeBord, University of Michigan (the new offensive assistant coach).
Like most NFL teams, the Hawks have a lot of coaches to go with Holmgren, 19 of them in fact. In some cases, work harder than the players are training.
Seattle and the NFL in general, has many players who are overpaid and under-perform. Two of them are defensive tackle Marcus Tubbs, a man of enormous that could block the center if he was injured every 10 minutes in his career, and offensive tackle Floyd "Pork Chop" Womack, who like the Seahawks, because it can play more positions on the line.
Womack, as Tubbs was injured healthy. Seattle, fortunately Cut Loose Tubbs earlier in the camp preseason. However, Womack gave a dubious move at best. It is as if the Seahawks could not find another decent, healthy backup against the face of the earth.
To its credit, Seattle has developed substitutes, players recovered to discredit any of them was able to do the job, so Womack Returning for another season, that is, until it hurts again.
So who else is hurt? I thought I would never ask. Pro-Bowl quarterback Matt Hasselbeck has had enough of back problems to become an orthopedic surgeon and rich, for the new receivers Bobby Engram has a cracked shoulder and will be absent for some time, and high price of receiver Deion Branch is recovering from knee surgery.
Many other players had complained of beatings normal beats. Big deal, that's football, not tiddlywinks.
