Dude-LAP Duke_619 Dude-LAP ChainedShadow Dude-LAP The Seahawks will probably win a Super Bowl in your lifetime. I actually wouldn't be surprised to see them win one within the next five years, carried by their defense. But I still think that releasing Alexander was a mistake. He wasn't really been "cursed ever since he was on the cover of Madden 07." He had an injury, and one bad year. Getting Puckett and Julius Jones were stretches, and they are getting overpayed. Travis Henry or Kevin Jones would have been better options. Ahh... It was Travis Henry, whoops, my bad... Anyways, the running game in Seattle is going to be a big question mark, you never know if either Puckett or Jones are going to have breakout years or be complete busts. The passing game is in danger as well, with Branch getting injured every year, Hackett gone, and Engram a possible holdout, they'll have to rely on Obomanu, Payne and Taylor to pick up severely. I think Jones will do fine, but their backfield isn't as explosive as it should be. Branch, Burleson, and Engram can be very dangerous when the three are healthy. Hackett going to Carolina hurts. But with Pollard gone, how do they stand at TE? Because the Seattle receivers are fairly small, and tight end can be a very important position for the Seahawks. Seahawks should have kept Jurevicius....teams are dumb Giants, Tampa, Seattle, he hardly ever drops a pass. They do have one of the best receiving corps in the NFL tho. Yes, the Browns do have one of the best receiving cores in the NFL. But Jurevicius has been pretty successful, just because Edwards and Winslow have gotten most of the defensive attention in the air, opening him up for opportunity. He's not a very good route runner, more or a sideline possession receiver. Well hes white what do you expect lol

Its becomming just like the RB position, there are a handful of white runningbacks, and none of them start. (and by RB i mean true RB, not FB)

(and by RB i mean true RB, not FB) Well white wide receivers are usually more successful than white running backs. Not many whites are fast, agile, and durable, as well as tough and strong (like most current running backs). Anyways, best white running back was John Riggins. It's the same with other positions too. You see most QBs are white, but a handful are black. Secondary is predominantly black, linebackers are mixed, defensive line is mostly black but with quite a few good whites, offensive line is mixed but with more whites, tight ends are mixed but a bit more are white, and fullbacks are mixed. But you don't see too many white wide receivers and running backs, as well as black kickers and punters.

Dude-LAP ChainedShadow Dude-LAP ChainedShadow Dude-LAP Super Bowl XL was closer than the score, but the Steelers still deserved to win. Anyways, do you really think that Seattle will be better off without Shaun Alexander? He's an MVP type player who had one bad year, and the fans deserted him. He didn't hit the hole like he used to, because he was injured last season. He didn't play with a huge passion, because he would have re-agrivated an injury. I still think that he can play at a high level, and any team that picks up the free agent Alexander will be satisfied. A loss for Seattle, because Julius Jones does not have the vision of Shaun. Holmgren should go out in a bang, behind his team. Alexander has been cursed ever since he was on the cover of Madden 07, and he's been injured too much, he's become brittle. But thats just my opinion. I still think that the Puckett pick up was... A little too pre-emptive... Chris Henry would have been a far better grab than him. But personally I just want to see a Seahawk Super Bowl victory, At least once in my lifetime. The Seahawks will probably win a Super Bowl in your lifetime. I actually wouldn't be surprised to see them win one within the next five years, carried by their defense. But I still think that releasing Alexander was a mistake.

But with Pollard gone, how do they stand at TE? Because the Seattle receivers are fairly small, and tight end can be a very important position for the Seahawks. Seattle has John Carlson, a rookie from Notre Dame, and from my brief study, he's durable, a good route runner, and is especially tough in the middle when he goes to catch. He's also a decent blocker. He's about 6'4 so he should be a good TE, he's also the first rookie that Holmgren has ever started.

He's kind of like Anthony Gonzales, in which both the Seahawks and Colts want to remove these receivers to TE.

ChainedShadow Dude-LAP The Seahawks are a very good team. Playing for one of the best coaches, in one of the best cities, in one of the coolest stadiums, with some of the best fans. Seattle should make it pretty far this season, but it will be tough. The NFC West will be much harder to come on top of, this year. The Rams, 49ers, and Cardinals are all threats to win this division, but the Seahawks should be able to pull through. Seattle has many strong points. Their secondary and linebackers are among the NFL's elite. Hasselbeck is a great QB, behind one of the better offensive lines in the NFL. Engram, Branch, and Burleson are a good receiving core. Pollard has potential, but hasn't really proven himself yet. The rushing backfield is a question mark. Letting go of Alexander could be really costly. Julius Jones is overhyped, and Morris, Puckett and Forsett haven't proven themselves yet. Weaver is a good FB. Patrick Kearney is a great threat on the line and Tapp is good, yet defensive tackles aren't really a plus for Seattle. The Seahawks special teams are good as well. I think that Seattle is a playoff team again, and they will just edge out to win the NFC West. Yet I don't think they will make it too far in the postseason. The Seahawks are a great overall team, but I believe that they are one explosive offensive play-maker away from being Super Bowl contenders. I like your thoughts, but Pollard is actually gone, I believe, being replaced by rookie tight end John Carlson, who I've seen play in Notre Dame, and should be a good, tough TE for Seattle. I think that the loss of Alexander is a definate plus, as J.J will have a better O-Line with Walter Jones leading it, and Julius should give the speed the Seahawks need in a RB, but the others I'm not so sure about, I believe they should have waited and picked up Chris Henry or Kevin Jones instead of Puckett. Rocky Bernard is a solid DT, but Tubbs is a failure health wise, so rookie Red Bryant will have to pick up the slack. Holmgren might bust out a great team this year, being his last year as an NFL coach, and because I believe in the whole Super Bowl Conspiracy theory, ever since Steelers beat Seahawks in 05' after Bettis still hadnt won a superbowl, and at the start of his career, said he wanted to sin it at least once during a huge press conference, (back to the topic..) Because of my belief and the hype around Holmgrens last year, I think the Seahawks will get a huge boost in reffing, and will probably make it far in the playoffs. I believe in the super bowl conspiracy too. no clue how some of those calls were made

The Steelers won convincingly, dominating the clock and managing the game well. The Steelers won mostly by good offensive and defensive lines.

Dude-LAP: I read your first post and I had to say I was a bit surprised when you said the Maurice Morris hasn't proven himself. I don't know if you remember but when Alexander went down for those couple weeks Morris stepped it up and was rushing for well over 100yds a game. He wasn't having games like Alexander had in 2005 but still for a back up to come in and put up those kind of numbers was pretty good. Sure he needs more time to develop his running game but I believe he has proven himself a valuable player.

Morris stepped up to replace the injured Shaun Alexander, but he still didn't rush over 100 yards in any game last season. While Alexander wasn't himself, the Seahawks established more of a West Coast offense, and took away most of the running game. Morris is a pretty solid runningback, but I don't think he'll thrive too well in Seattle this upcoming season. Julius Jones and Morris Morris have the same style of playing the position. The Seahawks may try to establish RBBC next season, since Julius Jones shared carried with Marion Barber last season, but with two similar running backs, it doesn't usually work. Maurice Morris also isn't a good blocker like Alexander was, or a good receiver out of the backfield like Alexander.
