Default GameThree: Hosting Ocho-Cinco - Hawks(1-1), Bengals(1-1)

After Seattle's disappointing road performance they get to take on a strong offense (72 points scored). The dynamic Chad Johnson - Carson Palmer connection looks to continue, but they will face a stronger defense from Seattle (29 points allowed).

Seattle's Offense gets the opportunity to score (Bengals 71 allowed), and they could use a strong game after their early struggles (40 points scored).

In offfield news Babineux was signed to a five year extension

Division Games
San Fran 2-0 @ Pitt
Arizona 1-1 @ Balt
StLouis 0-2 @ Tamp

Great week to gain some ground

Both teams need this win badly. It should be a very good game. Cincy beat Baltimore, but they also allowed 51 points to the Browns, so the edge has to go to Seattle.

Default Halftime: Seattle 14 - Cinci 10

Seattle's ability to stop the run this game has impressed me, unfortunately they haven't been able to dent the Bengals passing game while Palmer uses the no-huddle. Alexander has been mediocre, and if not for some good special teams play Seattle wouldn't have the points they do have.

I still feel good, but Cinci looks more than decent.

Clutch special teams performance nailed that game for Seattle.

Each divsion opponent loses and so Seattle moves into a tie for first with next week's opponent, the 49ers

You have to be happy with the defensive effort against a very powerful offense. Palmer, Johnson, and Houshmanzadeh were as advertised. Some great play in the secondary. Special teams certainly played well.

The offense was a different story. the Bengal defense is awful and they were banged up. Burleson had a good last drive to avoid wearing the goat horns. It would have been a very ugly week for him if the Seahawks lost.
