I live in Seattle, 90% of the ones I've talked to are just casual football fans who think QWest still holds the record

Stop Lynch and spy Wilson. Those are the two that'll kill us with their running ability. The pass game doesn't scare me outside of Wilson escaping.

Been a Hawk for since day one and lurking here for the last couple of years. As I've mentioned before this is the best board on the net. Fans are self controlling when it comes to over the top homerism but also know how to put visiting trolls in their right full place. I'm not here to trash talk, just give a little objective view of what is happening with the visiting Hawks team and specific matchups to follow.

The Hawks have been hit with injuries this year. Last year not so much, except for the O line early in the year. The Hawks are a running team. The OC dedicated the first 7 games trying to fit Percy Harvin in as the main playmaker, to the detriment to the team. Lynch was the guy who lost touches because of this. Harvin's gone so it's back to the basics for the Hawks, run the ball, then run it some more. If the D ends don't contain, there is no "spy" and or the D backs play man, Wilson will keep it and force the issue. If the D schemes don't change expect to see what happened against the Giants and Redskins, RW with over a hundred yards rushing. RW is always looking to throw when he runs and the receivers know how to play backyard football. Broken plays are where RW shines. I think he has a difficult time seeing over the mass of big people and the Hawks like to roll him out. He can be lethal on a roll out, doesn't matter which side.

The last 3 or 4 games RW's has been off. Might be injured again? This was the reason late last year it seemed he was regressing, some type of injury in his torso.

Anyhow, stopping Lynch isn't the only key. Containing RW is probably the bigger key, force him to stay in the pocket and make tightly contested timing throws consistently. Even then he will make a play or two, running and or scrambling and hit on a broken pass play. He isn't Vick, he's smart with the ball and knows how to avoid getting hit hard.

The O line got two guys back this week (LT Okung and C Unger) and it showed against the Giants. They are much better run blockers than pass protectors. The right guard is nasty (Sweezey), dude is turning in to a stud / mauler. Most of Lynches yards yesterday came on the right side.

On D, the Hawks lost their best run stuffer and all around D lineman, Brandon Mebane. They will most likely be without their best linebacker but PC said he is coming along and may play.

The team lost a lot of great players in the offseason not to mention the injuries but they seem to be gelling now, albeit slowly. I don't see a win this coming Sunday (early game AGAIN) against a good team. Most Hawk fans are thinking the same thing. If the Hawks win I wouldn't be surprised but hell, this is todays NFL and they could get smoked. It's a week by week league. The Hawks seem to be on the upswing and Lynch looks like he's playing for a contract that takes him in to his 30's. He probably wont get it from Seattle and he knows it.

That's a great post. Thanks for the insight. I think this game can go either way. Good luck to you guys. And here's hoping both teams come out of it injury free.

Crying about injuries? Try again, Chiefs are riddled.

Wow. I feel really good about the Chiefs after reading that.

It's like intercepting a note in class from the pretty girl and finding out she thinks you're hot.
