Comments on: Friday practice report: RB Jones a game-time decision http://blog.thenewstribune.com/seahawks/2009/11/27/friday-practice-report-rb-jones-a-game-time-decision/ Where there is no off season Sun, 12 Feb 2012 19:23:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 By: BobbyK http://blog.thenewstribune.com/seahawks/2009/11/27/friday-practice-report-rb-jones-a-game-time-decision/#comment-10036 BobbyK Sun, 29 Nov 2009 05:37:11 +0000 http://blog.thenewstribune.com/seahawks/?p=1395#comment-10036 It doesn't surprise me that Forsett was getting killed on the blog (for having nowhere to run). That 80 plus yards receiving probably happened on it's own (sarcasm). He's a good little dude, and Jones isn't as bad as almost everyone says he is (he may not be overly good, but he's certainly not bad). It's that damn line, as we said in '06... as we said in '07 (with respect to running the ball, pass blocking was fine)... as we said in '08... as we said in '09... When the hell are the people upstairs going to put together a decent OL??? It doesn’t surprise me that Forsett was getting killed on the blog (for having nowhere to run).

Almost like he's kicking them out like Deon Sanders) is that whether he's taking a pitch from the QB or rushing off tackle, his shoulders are always square to the line. Always. That run around 2:25 against Duke was stupid. Lol. One thing I noticed (besides the fact he runs on his toes, and kind of behind his legs.

Though, I'd still rather have this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3rmS4fh-z4 6'1", 235 pounds...notice his speed, pass catching, and how blockers bounce off of him. That tate clip is aweseome!

Are you kidding? He was busted in the mouth before he got back to the line on at least 5 of those attempts.

It's simply a joke. If you don't like the Seahawks, you probably would think it's commical. Or how many of Matt's sacks are were they basically busted through without hardly any resistance (like if nobody were actually in front of them on their way through)? Sickening. Simply sickening.

When I see McCoy interviewed, I see a guy who I would be proud to call a Seahawk, as corny as that may sound. And beyond all the physical tools, that's important to me, as a fan.

Maybe Ray Willis wouldn't feel so alone. I've seen plenty of mocks having him go in the 1st... Mike Johnson seems more likely being there with our 2nd rounder. I wouldn't complain if we went LT and then took both guards. I'm just so sick of being dominated at the offensive LOS that I'm willing to go overboard to make it stop.

I'd hate for a jerk to be the face of our franchise. Sure, I don't know the guy, but I've never heard anything good. I know his brother had a rep for being a jerk at Tennessee too, so it seems to be a family thing. I have no problem taking a QB with one of our #1 picks, as long as they spend 3-4 years learning the ropes. If Matt is 36 and still healthy, I think he needs to remain the starter. I know you shouldn't pay someone to be a back-up like that, except the QB position. Just me. He’s good, no doubt, but I think he’s a moron. I’d hate for a jerk to be the face of our franchise.

I mentioned this before, but one of my cousins goes to U of I and has been jocking him for 2 years so I've been "forced" to watch him. He's big and strong and angry as piss. I would love for him to be a Seahawk. That Tate highlight montage could almost double as one for Clausen. He showed some beautiful touch on so many of those deep balls. And the arm strength to put it out for Tate to chase it down. Mike Iupati, the Idaho kid.
