lynch is a perfect example of why the bills have trouble fielding a good team. he hated the small town attitude and it rubs some guys the wrong way. when they drafted him i was so happy because i thought he was going to be a battering ram with a juke here and there, making defenders miss in the november and december snow slicked home field. as sad as it is i really think the franchise is doomed here in western ny. don`t get me wrong, it is a beautiful place to raise a family or to hunt and fish but thats not exactly a calling card for rich young atheletes from the south or west coast. thanks for the memories ralph.

The Seahawks are on the right track. Ignore the record. Pete is doing all the right things and putting the pieces in place for a serious run in the near future.

Jackson had a great night but he isn’t the long term solution at QB.

Getting Lynch was a steal. He is coming into his own as an elite runner. Golden Tate is starting to show signs that he can be the elite receiver everyone thought he should be.

Seahawks are dangerous, Carroll is quietly building a winner.

@qtownchawk:

That’s bc 3 seasons ago we had a GM who didn’t know how to draft, esp. O and D linemen.

I wouldn’t say Petey C has “changed the culture” around here, per say–we have been accustomed to winning more often than not in the not-so-long-ago past, during the Holmgren days before Ruskell contaminated this franchise–but Pete (AND JOHN SCHNEIDER, just as importantly) has made this defense a hell of a lot tougher and stronger, which complements/supplements our offense.

Can you just imagine what it would be like to play against us if we had Holmgren’s offense led by a deadly efficient Matt Hasselbeck(being protected by an O-line NOT featuring the likes of Locklear and Spencer) and this brand of ‘Hawks defense of today?!!!

We would practically be a Dream Tea…….

Uh, well….let’s just say we would be pretty darn tough to beat.

The people that say Lynch can’t run? What drugs are they on? Name me one RBI that gets more yards after first contact. His legs don’t stop until he is on the ground. He carries defensive players 2 or more yards. Lynch haters quit drinking that cheap beer.

I have no problem with Lynch’s game and have cheered for him since he was in college, reguardless of the mistakes he made off field. He is a hell of a RB.

I still laugh at all the people that hated on Ted Thomspon for acquiring him after Grant went down last season.

special shot outs to michael irvin, deion sanders, mariuchi, marshall faulk, and numerous journalists on sports radio for not giving us a chance to compete, better yet beat philly.

a quick stat for the tjax haters: 81% of his passes were completed..not bad for a guy with a torn peck and bicep, and dont forget seattles #1 wr was out.

lynch with another classic highlight reel tough td

including zach miller in the pass game helps.

golden tate is finally coming into form. michael robinson had a huge game. okung is a beast.

I havent even gotten started on the d. leroy hill and heater hawthorne held it down.

ill say it again, pete caroll has changed the culture of this team. past three seasons, this game woulda been ovwr with by the second half.

fun game to watch. go hawks.

The Buffalo Bills never seem to know or appreciate what they have. If they had only kept their good players over the last several seasons they would be a vastly different and better team.

This game ended at the 10 minute mark with the phantamn holding penalty…

Game over.

I love my Eagles…

Go Eagles. (next year)

The wide 9 is a gimmick that’s an absolute joke against the run.

Side note: Desean Jackson looks like randy moss in his raider days, complete lack of effort. He’s obviously mailing it in, in a contract year.

Eagles fan here, no excuses, they’ve stunk this year but I’ll never root against my team and neither should anyone else. Real fans never root against their team. He’s on 2 of my fantasy teams, go McCoy!!!

2 time outs at the end of the half, and 1:07 left on the clock.

Reid decides not to use a time out and gets the ball back with about 18 seconds left. Pete Carroll must have been ecstatic

Over the last four games (soon to be five), Lynch has been the most productive RB in the league. Maybe it’s a “contract year” thing, but if Seattle doesn’t resign this guy this guy in the offseason, they’d be making a huge mistake.

Lynch deserves a new contract. He has proven himself behind a second string oline.
