Seahawks: From
Bad to Worse in 09
Bad to worse, worse to bad.
The
2009 Seattle Seahawks have been a very clear joke to watch. Hawks
Quarterback Matt Hassel-kitnacrack has regressed (Getting
old) with a lot bad throws which have lead to picks ending games.
Not having Walter Jones all year has cost the Hawks time
in the pocket. Patrick "Grant Windstrom" Kearney
has been a bust (no pressure), as has second-time around Ken
"10-yard cushion" Lucas. When Marcus Truburnt
is not racking up multiple penalties in games, he is getting torched
by wide-outs more than the pre and post-game Olympic ceremonies.
Head Coach Jim Mora Jr.'s coaching style and press conferences
seem to be more tired than the Hawks play on the field.
Big changes need to
be made on the Seahawks roster through the draft next year. Those
changes should be left tackle, quarterback, running back, and cornerback.
Its all starts in the draft with players like in Clemson running
back C.J. Spiller. Spiller can do it all rushing for 1,145
yards and 11 touchdowns, combined with 33 receptions for 445 yards
and 4 touchdowns this past year.
At Quarterback there
could be a surprise in the draft with a name that too many people
are not talking about. That name is Central Michigan QB Dan Lefevour,
who in 2009 threw for 3,043 yards, 27 touchdowns and a 71.1% pass
completion percentage this past year. Lefevour also ran for 701
yards and 14 touchdowns.
For offensive line
help in draft, the Hawks may need to look at Michigan lineman Stephen
Schilling who can play Guard and Left tackle. Despite Michigan's
down year, the local Bellevue High star Schilling (6' 5"
and 315 lbs.) was the only bright spot for Michigan during the season.
These are just a few
names that may help the Hawks next year. Most of the time the Seattle
local mass-media does state that the bad play by QB Matt Hassel-kintacrack
is his own fault. The post game media (Hugh Millen, Dave
Wyman, and Ian Furness) blames the offensive line woes,
the wide outs for running the wrong routes, and makes other excuses
for bad quarterback play. The blame game finger-pointing by the
media continues even when Hasselback steps to the microphone after
throwing 4 picks and fumbling once and says, "I was careless
with the ball."
Is the local media
having dinner every night with "captain check down" (Matt
Kitnacrack)? Is the local media afraid to never get another interview
with Matt if they rip him on television radio, or in the papers?
Players will respect
you more if you are real and not fake like Seahawks head coach Jim
Mora Jr. The Seahawks players have quit on us the fans and their
coaches. There will be big changes in 2010 on the Prevent Hawks
defense, and the "prevent check-down field goal only red-zone
Hawks offense."
