NWSB Insider and Seahawks’ Blogger Ben Tole talks about which Seahawks could potentially make the 2013 Pro Bowl. 2012 has been a memorable season for the Seattle Seahawks. An 8-5 record with three games remaining with big wins against Dallas, Green Bay, New England, and Chicago has Hawk fans thinking playoffs. Now the question that remains is not how we will remember the regular season but rather what Seahawks will make us remember the regular season?
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Clinton Bell weighs in with another instalment of the Seahawks Week That Was. Intended to be a fun column, with lots of laughs and other good stuff. Normally it will be a top 10 list, a la David Letterman style. A win that probably shouldn’t have happened this week. But as the saying goes, good teams find ways to win. That is exactly what happened on Sunday as the Seahawks behind Russell Wislon came from behind to beat the Patriots.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Clinton Bell tells us about the fourth game of the season for the Seahawks, a Sunday mornign matchup with NFC West rivals the St. Louis Rams. The Seahawks have more than a two game winning streak on the line for this one, they also have their integrity, that was ripped away by the national media after last weeks TD fiasco. Russell Wilson is about due for a break out performance.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Britton Ransford chimes in with a great post in a new series that we’ll feature here at NWSB, where he’ll examine the Seahawks’ most outstanding rookie on a week-to-week basis. In Week 3 of 2012 versus the Green Bay Packers the outstanding freshman was Bruce Irvin. The Seahawks 2012 first round draft pick. His speed is unquestionable but there is no doubt that his mechanics are still raw.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Brandon Choate brings us this week’s Love ‘em & Hate ‘em between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks in week 3 of NFL action. The spotlight was on Seattle for Monday Night Football – and it was a BIG night. The game had everything, including 8 sacks from a defensive line featuring Chris Clemsons and Bruce Irvin, plus some timely TD’s from Golden Tate.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Jordin Ereth brings us up to speed on the storylines he’s watching Monday night from Seahawks Stadium in Seattle, Washington when the Seahawks host the Green Bay Packers. His big ticket item he’s watching is when playing a potent offense like the Packers, controlling the clock is key. Marshawn Lynch made the Cowboys look like Lingerie Football League players, and must do so again tonight.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Clinton Bell tells us about the third game of the season for the Seahawks, a Monday Night Football primetime affair against the Green Bay Packers. The pressure just keeps mounting for the Seahawks. They met the challenge last week with the blowout win, can they do it again this week? Russell Wilson & Marshawn Lynch look to keep the primetime hot streak going for the Hawks.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Brett Bivens brings us up to speed on the storylines he’s watching tonight at Century Link Field when the Titans visit the Seahawks in NFL preseason action. With starting right guard John Moffitt out for 2-3 weeks newly acquired Deuce Lutui will get to start in his place and I want to see his conditioning. On Saturday I want to see Bruce Irvin and Jason Jones be disruptive forces.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Reggie Gill tells us what is going on during training camp with regards to Tarvaris Jackson and the Seatle QB competition. He states truth be told, Jackson doesn’t really project as the long term answer for the Hawks, but should he at least be retained for one more year? Russell Wilson and Matt Flynn and Josh Portis will all have something to say about this.
NWSB Rookie Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Alistair Corp brings us a Northwest gossip today about two up and coming players on the roster. Doug Baldwin and Matt Flynn are developing some great offseason chemistry. It’s relieving for Seahawks fans too see this, even though it’s coming from a teammate, after watching the Kevin Kolb disaster last season in Arizona.
NWSB Insider Reggie Gill brings us his analysis of the Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll. He questions whether or not Pete is on the Seahawks HOTSEAT. While Pete is a defensive Coach by his pedigree the Head Coach is ultimately responsible for all positions on the team, including the QB. And the Seattle QB competition is important. One has to wonder would another 7-9 record send Pete packing?
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Matt Church weighs in with a Seahawks post about the five toughest 2012 NFL matchups that await the team this season. In particular the week 16 game vs. division foes the San Francisco 49ers and Alex Smith. It is very likely that this will be the most important game on the Seahawks’ schedule. Will it be Matt Flynn or Tarvaris Jackson at the helm for Seattle?
