Hey, remember when the Miami Dolphins were way out of the playoff picture? I mean they still are, but they’re not as far as they could be after starting the season 2-7. They’ve won four in a row to claw to 6-7, albeit starting at elimination with a loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Maybe the […]

The good news for the Seattle Seahawks is that Jason Myers is a boss. The bad news is his winning field goal against the Indianapolis Colts may have come at the loss of starting left tackle Charles Cross. Keen observers noted that Cross was not on the field for victory formation on the game’s final […]

It also could’ve gone worse. And it didn’t do that, either. All things considered, not a top 50 disappointing game in Seattle Seahawks history. It had all the right ingredients for a catastrophe casserole, but in the end nobody choked. An afternoon that definitely started annoying was quelled before reaching full rage-inducing mode. In conclusion, […]

After not allowing opponents to score a touchdown for 9 consecutive quarters, the Seattle Seahawks said “this looks fun, let me try!” Six scoring drives. 18 points. Six scoring drives if they’re touchdowns gets you 42 points. Field goals don’t win postseason games. Unless, apparently, Jason Myers is on a hot one. I’ll just get […]

What the hell was that?? Just when you think you’ve seen everything, the Seattle Seahawks turn back the clock to secure a vintage Pete Carroll-esque 18-16 victory with six (!!!!!!) Jason Myers field goals accounting for all of the points. I guess it was fitting as 44 year old Philip Rivers came out of retirement […]

In Today’s Links: it was a game that decidedly had no consistent prediction from the pundits, both far and wide. As it went, Jason Myers showed us all in the Greater Hawkdom why he and the Seattle Seahawks Special Teams unit (Jay’s Jiants) have been truly special this season. Below are several articles, dissertations, takeaways, […]

It wasn’t pretty, but the Seahawks beat the Indianapolis Colts 18-16, winning on a last second field goal.

While Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald has had his fair share of struggles with managing the clock in 2025, that wasn’t the case on Sunday. As the Seahawks barely eked out a victory over the Indianapolis Colts, thanks in large part to Macdonald using his three timeouts to preserve 47 seconds for his offense’s […]

The Seattle Seahawks almost had one of the most embarrassing losses of the season. Key word is almost. Credit to 44-year-old Philip Rivers for not looking woefully out of his place in his first start in five years (well, up until his final throw of the game), but the Seahawks would’ve been summarily and maybe […]

The Seattle Seahawks could’ve defeated the Indianapolis Colts more handily with this little thing the sport likes to call “touch-downs,” named for the event associated with breaking the plane of the “end zone,” where drives are intended to, you know, end. But where’s the fun in that? Instead they pulled off a feat of some […]

On Sunday afternoon at Lumen Field, the Seattle Seahawks and Mike Macdonald made their best attempt at giving fans a reminder of what it’s like when the team doesn’t win by multiple scores every week. A battered and bruised Indianapolis Colts team came into Lumen Field and led for much of the game, only for […]

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers won NFC Special Teams Player of the Month for November after a nearly flawless showing of field goal and extra point kicking, not to mention how his kickoffs have been elite all season. Against the heavy underdog Indianapolis Colts, Myers represented all of the points the Seahawks scored, and they […]

The Dallas Cowboys pretty much have to win out to make the playoffs, and even that might not necessarily be enough. Brian Schottenheimer’s team getting run over by the Detroit Lions to the tune of a 44-30 defeat means their postseason hopes are at less than 10 percent. For the Minnesota Vikings, there will be […]

Whew! The Seattle Seahawks (11-3) needed six field goals to beat the Philip Rivers led Indianapolis Colts (8-6) in a game that was way too close for comfort. Seattle did not get into the end zone but didn’t need to, as Jason Myers became the first Seahawks kicker to make six field goals in a […]

The Seattle Seahawks will most likely make the playoffs, but there’s still a chance they miss. This is a performance befitting of a pretender and not a contender. Philip Rivers has hardly been pressured and for all the concerns about him throwing the ball short and getting yards after catch… well that’s what’s happening. Jonathan […]

The Seattle Seahawks are locked in a tight battle with the Indianapolis Colts at Lumen Field in a Week 15 contest that was supposed to be an easy game for the Hawks.

Four games left to determine whether the Seattle Seahawks are a playoff team, an NFC West champion, and possibly a No. 1 seed. It would take one hell of a collapse to miss the postseason, but it’s always reassuring when the Seahawks win their way into a playoff berth. They are once again huge favorites […]

Rise and shine, Seattle Seahawks fans! We’ve got only a few more weeks left in the regular season (already?!!) and things are heating up in the playoff race and I guess at the top of the NFL Draft order. While we wait for the Seahawks to take on the Indianapolis Colts, there are some 10 […]
