If Minnesota had anything resembling a real offence this would be a blowout already.

It doesn't appear to matter. They have enough guys to just do whatever they want. Aside from settling for 3 on the second one, Seattle hasn't been able to even influence them. They punted once, on a 4th an inches, and if they'd gone for it they absolutely would have gotten it.

This is why I don't understand how anyone can rank Seattle in the top 5, or call them a Super Bowl contender. This team is completely incapable of winning the Super Bowl. They're not even in the top 10.

They will play exactly 17 games this season, unless they end up as a wild card facing the NFC champions, in which case they'll play exactly 18.

Not unless Russell starts pretending his helmet doesn't work again.

... No, seriously. Remember last week in the 2nd half against the Dolphins when they were acting like complete morons and let them back into it 17-15, and then suddenly had a super effective series that led to a TD and never looked back? Wilson was calling all of those plays. He "couldn't hear" the calls. Saved that game for them.

####ing. Fire. Brian. Schottenheimer.

3 TDs in 1:53 of possession seems like it's not something that should happen.

Yep, still think you guys win the division by a few games

But before the season started most raider fans and the beat writers were saying 2-4 after the first 6 games would have been a solid start, to be at 3 with a chance for 4 is a very nice start, like you say the schedule rest of way isnt difficult. Playoffs should be the expectation.

Offense with ruggs is just so different, put up 30+ every game hes started

Must NBC play grunge after Seattle scores and Prince after Minnesota scores?

Prince isn't even the most famous Minnesota musician and obviously Jimi is more famous than grunge, should switch it up a bit.

Well, this has been a disaster for the Seahawks, but at least it's never boring.

EDIT: Heyyyy DK held on this time.

That’s a negligent loss by the Vikings.

It's technically not over.

Fair to say the Seahawks are one of the worst 5-0 teams of all-time, which seems par for this season of not all that much greatness.

I agree. This is the first time in franchise history they've been 5-0 and it's not even close to the best team Wilson has had.

People are calling for Zimm's head already for not kicking that FG. Which is insane. "It's Russell Wilson on the other side, make him go get 8 points for overtime!" ... no, it's precisely because it's Russell Wilson on the other side that you take the opportunity to not let him touch the ball again. This should be obvious.

Yeah, that's a call where the coach made the right decision going for it there. There's risk/reward in any decision, and the reward would've been worth it considering the low risk. But alas, hindsight is 20/20.

It's good to see coaches being aggressive, and playing to win, even though it may not pan out that way in the end.
