Seahawks cruise to 23-7 victory over the Bucs

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page by ravenhater on Sunday 31 December 2006 at 8:54 pm

The Seahawks hogged the ball on offense and won this football game with ease.  Matt Hasselbeck had a decent game as he completed 17 of 29 passes for 216 yards with a TD.  Shaun Alexander was very busy with 28 carries for 92 yards (3.3 ypc) and a TD.  Maurice Morris pitched in with 10 carries for 39 yards (3.9 ypc).  DJ Hackett (4 rec, 63 yards, TD) and TE Jerramy Stevens (4 rec, 54 yards) led the way in the passing game for the Seahawks.

The defense played pretty well overall for the Seahawks.  The Bucs carried the ball 21 times for 110 yards (5.2 ypc).  The Bucs also completed 16 of 27 passes for 177 net yards passing.

Seattle Seahawks vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page, This Week's Matchup Report by ravenhater on Friday 29 December 2006 at 6:20 pm

The Seattle Seahawks have lost 3 games in a row but secured the NFC West division championship last week.  The Bucs snapped a 4 game losing streak with a 22-7 in Cleveland last week.

The Seahawks will run the football with Shaun Alexander (804 yards rushing) and Maurice Morris (565 yards rushing) against a Bucs defense that is allowing 119.0 yards rushing per game and 3.9 yards per carry.  Matt Hasselbeck should have a good game throwing the ball against a leaky Bucs secondary that has allowed 209.5 net yards passing per game.  The Bucs don’t have much of a pass rush so Hasselbeck and Seneca Wallace should be able to pick them apart.

The Bucs will probably come out running the football against the Seahawks.  Michael Pittman and Mike Alstott will probably split carries like they did so effectively last week against Cleveland.  The Seahawks defense is giving up 127.9 yards rushing per game and 4.6 yards per carry so far this season.  The Bucs also should be able to throw the ball well now that Tim Rattay is the starting QB.  Look for Rattay to spread the ball around to Joey Galloway, Maurice Stovall and TE Alex Smith.

This should be a much better game than most people will think.  I’m siding with the Seahawks in this game because they simply have the better team.

Seahawks playoff scenarios

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page by ravenhater on Thursday 28 December 2006 at 8:30 pm

The Seahawks have clinched the NFC West Division championship.  The Seahawks have not played well overall this season and they better shape up or their playoff run will be a very short one.  If Matt Hasselbeck and Shaun Alexander play well the Seahawks could make a deep run like last season, but the defense will also have to play much better for them to win in the playoffs.

Seahawks lose a rough one 20-17 against the Chargers

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page by ravenhater on Tuesday 26 December 2006 at 1:01 pm

The Seahawks had the Chargers on the ropes most of this game, but the Chargers hit them with a knockout punch late in the 4th quarter.  Matt Hasselbeck had another rough game as he completed 17 of 37 passes for 189 yards with 2 INTs.  Shaun Alexander had a great game with 31 carries for 140 yards (4.5 ypc) and 2 TDs.  Bobby Engram (4 rec, 65 yards), Deion Branch (5 rec, 61 yards) and DJ Hackett (3 rec, 37 yards) all pitched in on the passing game.

LB Lofa Tatupu registered 12 tackles and a sack to lead the Seahawks defense against the Chargers.  The Seahawks couldn’t stop the Chargers run game as they ran up 168 yards rushing on 33 carries (5.1 ypc). The Chargers only completed 10 of 30 passes for 172 net yards thru the air.

The Seahawks fell to 8-7 on the season with this loss, but they won their division due to the Cardinals win over the Niners.

Seattle Seahawks vs. San Diego Chargers

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page, This Week's Matchup Report by ravenhater on Thursday 21 December 2006 at 4:43 pm
The Chargers won their 8th game in a row last week 20-9 over the Kansas City Chiefs.  The Seahawks have lost two games in a row, including having a 4th quarter meltdown in a 24-14 loss last week at home against the 49ers.

The Chargers will do what they always do when they have the football and that is running it.  LaDainian Tomlinson (1,626 yards rushing) will get the bulk of the carries but Michael Turner (415 yards rushing, 6.4 ypc) will probably get a few carries as the Chargers try to keep LT fresh for the playoffs.  The Seahawks have not played well against the run this season as they’ve allowed 125.1 yards rushing and 4.5 yards per carry so far this season.  Philip Rivers had his worst game as a Pro last week, but he should rebound against the Seahawks who have allowed 207.6 net yards passing per game this season.  Rivers will probably keep his passes short and throw alot to LT and Antonio Gates.

The Seahawks will come out running against the Chargers with Shaun Alexander.  He could have some success as the Chargers are allowing 4.1 yards per carry so far this season.  The Seahawks must be able to run or Matt Hasselbeck will get severely beaten up by the Chargers pass rush that has 54 sacks so far this season.  Hasselbeck tends to get jittery in the pocket after he’s taken a few hits and starts making bad throws.  If he has time to throw, he will be able to get the ball to Deion Branch and DJ Hackett.

The Chargers should be able to run the ball at will against the Seahawks.  They will also probably get to Hasselbeck and force him to make some mistakes, so I’m siding with the Chargers in this football game.
