Bates gets Canned as the Hawks look for a new play caller

This was the correct move for the Seahawks to make in their change of a new play caller. Jeremy Bates was not cutting it and Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider saw that. The Hawks ranked in the bottom end of the league in offensives yards per game and his play calling was so predictable that a pee wee league defenders could sniff it out. Yes this was Carroll's boy from USC but Pete woke and said enough of this shit and kicked the guy to the curb and the search for a new offensive coordinator is on now. The Hawks might want to give Jim Zorn a look since he was a good fit with the Holgrem regime and how well he worked with the quarterbacks when he was here and plus he belongs back in the Pacific Northwest. I just want Pete and John to hire a guy who is not afraid to run the ball on 3rd and 1 or on fourth down. Enough of this pussy ass lets go for it on a pass and make it big. No run the dam ball and pound the living shit out of the defenders and let them know that we the Hawks are here to beat the living shit out of you and we are going to run the ball down your throat. Bates play calling made me want to pull my hair out at times or just go down to the VMAC and take a shit on his car because of how horrible the plays he calls. Will now we don't have to worry about him leading the offense into the dumps lets get a guy who will take control of the offense and will not be scared to pound the ball. Good riddance to Jeremy aka "No Balls I'm a Pussy" Bates. Peace out numb nuts.

Season over for the Hawks

Well I didn't get the chance to watch the whole game but it looked like the Hawks tried to put a fight but couldn't move the ball down the field until the third quarter. In the end it sounded like the Hawks missed some huge opportunity to get back in the game. After watching the highlights on ESPN it seemed the Hawks went back to their old self with drop passes by the receivers. But all in all they did things this season that surprise the nation buy having a losing record and getting to the playoffs and beating the New Orleans Saints the former Super Bowl Champions. I was looking forward to purchasing my first NFC Championship ticket but it looks like I'm going to have to wait a long time for that. This team has many holes to fill in the off season and it will start with the quarterback position. Either they sign Matt Hasslebeck to a two year deal or they face letting him walk to a team maybe in our own division. My suggestion is to sign him to that two year deal with a incentives package and a low salary base pay and then draft a quarterback in the first round and have him sit for one year under Matt. Also lets go find some defensive backs that are tall and can cover on passing downs with out getting beat. The offensive line will be a need to add depth there with the same thing going for the defensive line. Lets go out and also find maybe one more tight end that can block so the Hawks can free up John Carlson. Even though the season is over I'm happy that the Hawks showed us the fans that they didn't give up and they fought hard until the end. The NFC West title is back where it belongs in Seattle home the 12th man. Great job Seahawks now lets go into the off season and make this team better and stronger to compete for the big daddy of them all the Lombardi trophy.

Hawks take out the Saints

This was a game to remember, nobody except for the city and people of Seattle believe that the Hawks can win the wild card game against the New Orleans Saints. Yes it was a shoot out between Matt Hasselbeck and Drew Brees but it was Marshawn Lynch incredible 6 miss tackle run that sealed the deal and delivered the knock out blow to the champs. Matt had a game that people will never forget. Even though the first quarter was rough being down 10-0 and Matt throwing a pick on his third passing attempt I still had the feeling that this game was not over. Sitting at the Diamond Knot Brewery with all my fellow Hawks Fan we believed that this team will recovery and make a game out of the mistakes. At the amaze of the crowd chatting lets go Hawks Matt throws a beauty of a pass to John Carlson for the first Hawks touchdown of the game and the game was on. It was a classic back and forth by both teams. Brees kept the Saints in line to win but the defense showed up and held up their end of the game. Matt finished the game with a franchise record 4 touchdowns and Lynch with a playoff record long of a 67 yard touchdown run that will be remembered for a long time. Every fan at the game or watching it at home or a bar believed this game was not over until the referee blew his whistle. Everybody cheered and toasted their beer to the Hawks on a night when the national media believed the Hawks didn't belong in the playoffs. I'm glad that Matt had a good game along with John Carlson and Marshawn Lynch. Carlson has been a player that has not been used a whole lot this season but I'm happy that he had a game like this. Everybody did their part to get us the fans the most exciting moments of the year. Now it is on to Chicago to take on the Bears a team the Hawks have beaten earlier in the season. I pray that the Hawks will go into this game with the mind set that this is a whole new team since they beat them. The Hawks have no pressure on them unlike the Bears because the Hawks were not expected to be in the playoffs. Pete Carroll did a tremendous job of getting the team ready and executing a great game plan. Lets Go HAWKS. Lets beat the Bears and move on towards the big game.

NFC WEST CHAMPS with a 7-9 record!

Way to go Seattle Seahawks, this team proved everybody wrong and came out of their division with the title in hand and hosting a playoff game against the New Orleans Saints. Yes I know it has been a rough up and down season but in the end I have enjoyed seeing this team playing to its best even without Matt Hasslebeck. Good ole chucking Charlie came out and had a nice second career start with handling the pressure of a championship atmosphere. Whitehurst seem prepared and ready to win this game unlike the other times he had come into the games. The DEFENSE came to bring the sledge hammer on Sam Bradford as the St. Louis Rams looked like a bunch of wussies that lost their motive to play. The Rams offense was horrible with the passing game looking like a high school game plan with 3,4 and 5 yards dump passes. The Hawks defense came to play and shut them down. Great job by Mike Williams to get the only touchdown of the game. Marshawn Lynch came to play even though he fumble the ball in the third quarter but he recover and had good runs to end the game. Also it looked like Charlie had a connection to Ruvell Martin in this game, so way to go Ruvell on catching passes when the Rams secondary was double teaming Big Mike. Even though the Hawks finished with a sub .500 record it shows that this team will still compete to the end. The Hawks could have shut it down and said hey lets go on vacation but instead this team pulled magic off when no body believe that a sub .500 team can make the playoffs. I will admit that during this season it felt like I wanted to give up on them but the last game just proved to me that anything can happen with the Seahawks. Way to go Hawks. Now lets go get the revenge against the Saints. This is our place and the 12th man will always SHOW UP to play. Who knows what will happen but continue doing the job that you are suppose to do and things will turn out better. That is right the NFC WEST DIVISION TITLE WINNERS are the SEATTLE SEAHAWKS bitches! Say what you want but we are in the playoffs.
