Game7: Seahawks (3-3) host Rams (0-6)

The Seahawks have a two game losing streak after underwhelming performances by most of the team. Will we see a Nate Burleson that can consistently catch 6+ balls? A Shaun Alexander that can run for 110+?

Because without those answers this team can't win until Hackett and Branch get back.

On defense they need the pass rush that they had in the first four weeks, a rush that crushed Tampa and SanFran. With a weakened Bulger the pass rush can break this game wide open.

I expect to be uninspired.

Other Division Games
Arizona (3-3) @ Washington - currently 'zona is losing
SanFran (2-3) @ Giants - currently 49ers are getting crushed.

I forgot today's flag raiser is to be one Ichiro Suzuki of the Mariners. I think this is the first of the active Mariners to raise the 12th Man flag.

Another addition is that the Seahawks are +2 for points, while the Rams are NEGATIVE 86

Are we seeing the use of Morris as a change of pace back?

An absolutely beautiful performance by the defense. Intense pressure on poor little Bulger got him sacked and forced poor throws that wound up in the Seahawks hands.

I don't care about the poor running, nor the miscues in the passing game.

That victory was desperately needed and now the Hawks lead the division again.

Seahawks 4-3
Arizona 3-4
49ers 2-4
Rams 0-7

Excellent place for a bye as well, with the injuries on the D-line and to the receiving corp, maybe Alexander can get that cast off as well.
