Week 4 – Seahawks @ Dolphins

Six very important players in this upcoming matchup between the Miami Dolphins who are hosting the red hot Seattle Seahawks. There are more of course, more players who will have an impact on this game because ultimately 22 players are o0n the field at any given time. If our defensive line can’t harass QB Russell Wilson it will make the containment of WR’s Tyler Lockett and D.J. Metcalf very difficult. Even pressure alone doesn’t cut it with Russell Wilson, it’s containment as well. His escapability and ability to keep plays alive is one of his best assets, so initial pressure will be good, but not allowing him to scramble and find room to escape and keep the play going will be key. This is where Wilson separates himself from most QB’s, he’s one of the very best. Defending Tyler Lockett who is a very fast and savvy WR is difficult enough as it is, and same for physically imposing D.J. Metcalf, who by the way I was very wrong about. Thus far, Russell Wilson has been nearly the perfect QB. He’s completed nearlym 77% of his passes for 925 yards and 14 TD’s against one INT. His TD% is an absurd 13.6%. If not for Pat Mahomes, he would be considered the NFL’s best in 2020.

The Miami front 7 will also have their hands full, because not only can the Seahawks throw it but they have 2 backs that can run well too. Chris Carson leads their rushing attack with a modest 157 yards on 37 carries and Carlos Hyde can grind out a game too. Russell Wilson is actually 2nd on the team at the moment in rushing with 90 yards on 14 carries. He can do it all! The Seattle O-line has been built with a few retreads like LT Duane Brown (HOU), LG Mike Iupati (ARZ) and RT Brandon Shell (NYJ). C Ethan Pocic and RG Damien Lewis are the only Seattle draftees. They’re not a great line, but Russell Wilson makes them better than they are. Wilkins, Ogbah, Godchaux, Lawson, Van Noy, Sieler, Davis, Van Noy, Van Ginkel, Baker, Roberts and Grugier-Hill are all going to need to be disciplined and not lose containment. Flushing Wilson is good but bringing him down or forcing him to get rid of the ball before he wants to is important.

On offense, if we can duplicate what we did last week to Jacksonville we should be in this game. Seattle’s defense is a little better and Pete Carroll is a much better coach. All Pro S Jamal Adams is used all over the place, coverage, playing the run and rushing the passer and he does it all well. Not a big name defense but they have a trio of LB’s who get it done and tackle well in Wagner, Wright and Barton. No longer the “Legion of Boom”, Adams adds a little pop back into that secondary. We have extra time to prepare for this one which can only help us. It will give WR DeVante Parker a couple of extra days to rest that hamstring and give RB Myles Gaskin a breather after 22 carries Thursday night, far more than he’s had since his college days. It’s only 3 games in and you never know if things will change, but Gaskin looks like the real deal. We still have Jordan Howard and Matt Breida, but for now they seem like role players, Howard the goal line threat and Breida the change of pace. Gesicki will have a more difficult matchup this week and last week he only caught one pass. Parker gutted it out last week as opposed to sitting the game out like he would in the past and the team needs him. At some point this season we may see Lynn Bowden and Malcolm Perry but I think it might be a while. Parker, Williams, Ford and Gesicki and Gaskin are the main contributors.

If at the end of the day, Russell Wilson doesn’t have 3 or more TD’s and Carson and Hyde don’t have well over 100 yards combined I think we have a shot in this one. I don’t know if we’re capable of keeping the ball out of Wilson’s hands but I would like us to do that. Long drives mixing rushing with Gaskin and passing to the previously mentioned guys ending up in with TD’s on the board can make us a real spoiler upset. The line is 6.5 for the bad guys. We have our work cut out for us but a nice effort like last weeks win could keep us in this one.

GO DOLPHINS!!!

    I’ll say this and then leave it alone;
    YOU replied twice to me above (or about me) accusing me of piling on and being low character for doing so, when I was the one who first posted the list this week and included the title of “Howie’s list” so I was responding to a direct criticism of my actions which had nothing to do with you. Then you took a personal shot at me about being bald. You are a small ego child. My stupidity? you are a fucking moron and show it constantly. Now just go back to ignoring me

    Nice defensive win on that run

    Brady’s SECOND pick six of the year

  28. steveccnv's avatar steveccnv says:

    Holding on Flowers, because there’s no way we could be moving the ball on Seattle.

    Didn’t even know you could have an illegal formation on D. WTF?

  37. manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

    That’s the Breida I was hoping to see

  38. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    Nice run Breida

  39. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    I have been tacitly pleased with our rookie OL play so far this season. LT has wound up being the blind side protector even though everyone over focused on the RT this off season because of Tua.

  40. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Parker back in and looking good

  41. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    I guess Parker is okay

    Nice coverage. Stuff em or a TO

  50. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    I don’t care that Haak doesn’t have a TD yet this year. He can kick an awesome tombstone

    • Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

      That being saaid I would raather see him throwing TD’s from a fake kick holder position than see him ever kick a tombstone (would rather never have to punt, LOL)

  51. Krishna's avatar Krishna says:

    to me, a fg is defensive win. we need tds

  52. bailbondmike's avatar bailbondmike says:

    Ball came out But they recovered

    Two unlucky bounces in a row

  57. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    They say “injured player on the field” and when then see a Seahawks uniform my mind shouts GOOD. Not proud of it, but what happens.

  58. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Ogbah is very active this game. I keep seeing “Wake” making plays. LOL

    Gotta love Cox

  71. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    we keep putting big packages on the field and have been leaning on them with two and three TE packages. Using OL as TE to increase the wear and tear

  72. Krishna's avatar Krishna says:

    Huh? Do we have to have a political ad during my only respite?

  73. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Parker looking like a freak LOL

  76. Ken's avatar Ken says:

    Good drive but still need TDs

  77. manitobafinfan's avatar manitobafinfan says:

    Sanders is $$$$

    Down by 1, holding them to 10 at the 1/2 is almost a win

  78. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Shut up about Sanders being perfect so far this year. You will curse him.

  79. New Age's avatar New Age says:

    Fitz has looked a bit rough today. 3 opportunities to get a TD and still haven’t hit pay dirt. It will probably end up costing us the game.

  80. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    We need a defensive TD now

  81. Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

    I’ll take being down 10-9 at half. Love Parker’s attitude, he’s a different player since last season

  82. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    Could have used more Cox

  83. son of a son of a shula's avatar son of a son of a shula says:
