Oh oh oh it's magic... you know... last week the 'Hawks did not blow.
another win and the Seahawks are back to .500 and in the hunt for a playoff spot. This week the Seahawks will try to ride the momentum of a royal shellacking of the Jags. Hasselbeck played like a man possessed and put in 4 TD's to Housh and Nate Burleson.

In come the hated Cardinals looking to get into the hunt after a rallying win last week vs Houston. Dockett has already started the war of words: ""It's gonna be a helluva week this week at practice because this is personal between us and Seattle. We know for a fact we’ll get their best shot and I’ll probably send Matt Hasselbeck a Twitter message later this week, so stay tuned." There will be some ugliness and intensity to this game.

Injury update:

Seahawks-
Sims(LG) out, Hill(LB) out but practicing, Locklear (RT) out, Walt Jones(LT) done till week 7 or forever, Trufant(CB) out till the bye. Frye(LT) out for season with a neck injury.


Arizona
none to speak of... or as I like to think of it: due for some.

Things to Watch:

1-LT... 5th string left tackle? Are you kidding me? At this rate any fat kid on the bus will do.

2-The passing game for each team versus lame secondaries. This could be a score fest if the Hawks and Cards start burning corner backs like last week.

3-Aaron Curry's fumblicious pressure. He's starting to look like the guy the Seahawks took at 4 with a mean streak and athleticism. He's that kind of guy that has really scared the piss out of Kurt Warner who get's happy hands when pressured.

4-Did I mention 5th and 6th string LT's will be the starter and backup this week protecting the tender baby back ribs of Matt Hasselbeck? Holy Cow.

5-Justin Forsett... give him the damn ball! All he's doing is averaging nearly 8 yards a carry while showing surprisingly good pop in pass protection.

Predictions-

My homer colored glasses say:
Seattle 27 Arizona 10

Freakin' classic.

A win would definitely put Seattle back into the playoff picture. I'm hoping for a lot more Forsett. Seattle really needs to work on establishing a run game, if for anything but to keep the defenses honest. If Seattle can't get more than 60 yards out of a back, they'll be forced to pass and Hasselbeck won't last long.

That was, without a doubt, the worst football game I have ever seen live. What should have been an interesting game was, instead, a complete rout that made the Seahawks look grossly incompetent. No running game. No passing game. No pass protection. A lackluster defense. Bumbling special teams.

Complete and utter garbage.

man that sucked... sorry you had to watch that live.

That's the kind of thing that could really turn me off for the year. I can't believe the freaking Broncos rule and we suck so hard.

I wish Oklahoma would just rest our Quarterback for next year.

Kidding aside (don't really know if I'd want Bradford anyway), the game sounded ugly. For some reason I was unable to find it on TV, but it doesn't look or sound like I missed anything.

What is with the running game? I know that the problems on the line are likely a key part of these struggles, but only 11 attempts?

And I was right behind the Cardinals sideline...in the midst of a bunch of Cardinals fans. Joy.
