The stupidest name in smart football analysis.
Well, it wasn’t quite Rocky vs Apollo, but the heavyweight (sorry, that was mean) battle between the Seattle Seahawks’ much maligned kicker and Rivers doing his best Dennis Quaid “The Rookie” impression was some of the best bad football I can remember. It was a historic day in Seattle for a lot of reasons. We […]
The stretch run has arrived and the Seattle Seahawks are getting healthy. In recent weeks several members of the team have returned from injured reserve or, as in the case of rookie Rylie Mills, been activated from the nonfootball injury list. The side effect of that is that the team has needed to create spots […]

The Seattle Seahawks rookie snap count dropped significantly in Week 15, with the group combining for 137 total snaps. That decrease is largely explained by two offensive rookies landing on Injured Reserve (Elijah Arroyo and Tory Horton), Rylie Mills being eased back in with fewer than 10 snaps after a long injury absence, and Robbie […]
Last week, after defeating the Atlanta Falcons in a rather dominant manner, the Seahawks maintained the same average power ranking. Could a sloppy victory over grandfather, Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts potentially drop the Seahawks down? Surprisingly, the five national media sites did not overreact to the close game against the Colts. Of the […]
It is officially Jason Myers appreciation season. After putting up all 18 points for the Seattle Seahawks last week against the Indianapolis Colts, Myers is starting to get praise from all around the national media. From appearances on the Pat McAfee show, to winning NFC Special Teams Player of the Month for November, to breaking […]
Alrighty, this is a weird one. The Seattle Seahawks narrowly beat the Indianapolis Colts, so this is as close to doing an Enemy Reaction for a Seahawks loss as I’ve ever come. Not that the Seahawks haven’t had close wins before, but the thought of losing to 44-year-old Philip Rivers at quarterback as a two-touchdown […]
In Today’s Links: numbers of note from yesterday’s 2-point Seattle Seahawks victory over the Indianapolis Colts, a couple different looks at the ‘Hawks offense and some of their obvious issues, an early preview or two of Thursday’s match-up with the Los Angeles Rams, Jaxon Smith-Njigba continues to add to his historic 2025 season, a look […]
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, […]
As the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams prepare to meet in a pivotal NFC West clash, the betting market at FanDuel Sportsbook reflects just how evenly matched these division leaders are — and how much is on the line. With both teams locked near the top of the NFC and playoff seeding implications, oddsmakers […]
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 […]
So far in the 2025 season the Seattle Seahawks have won five games by 20 or more points, with rookie offensive lineman Bryce Cabeldue playing a key role in each of those victories. Specifically, Cabeldue has logged offensive snaps in exactly five contests this year, with those five games being: Cabeldue’s absence on offense has […]
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, […]
The Seattle Seahawks handled their business in Week 15 and it opens the door to a huge opportunity this coming Thursday. It wasn’t pretty, but the Seahawks beat the Indianapolis Colts 18-16, winning on a last second field goal. Regardless of how they performed, Seattle got a much-needed win to set up a massive Thursday […]
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 […]
