How this team has 5 wins at this point is beyond my comprehension. Quite possibly the worst OL in NFL history, no running back, a hobbled RW, and a defense that is on the field 70% of the game. If we some how make it to the SB, we may be considered the best team, or luckiest, in the entire existence of football.

This team is built the exact opposite way championship teams are built...
Well their defense had been good this year with exception to the last two games. And last week despite allowing points they were shutting the Saints down in the red zone and only allowed that one TD on the illegal pick play, so they were the ultimate bend don't break. Yesterday was a different story, they just had a hard time bringing down McCoy and Taylor, I think Kam coming back next week will help a bit as well as Bennett when he returns. I think the Bills prepared very well too.

The other factor is this team knows how to win. They never give up no matter what which usually means they are always in the game and at the very least means they have a chance to win.

It is crazy since they have absolutely no running game with an o line that is this fucking bad, but again that is a testament to the defense keeping them alive and so many players who refuse to quit like Wilson, Graham, Baldwin all of them will step up when it matters most.

The Patriots game should tell us just how bad things are because they are obviously playing like the best team in the NFL. Rarely do the Seahawks ever lose by more than 7 points so if they can at least keep it close to a one score difference I won't feel that bad.

Holds happen on damn near every play. Khalil Mack gets held every single time he rushes.
One of those was very blatant, dude straight up tackled our D lineman, those are always called. Not yesterday.

That's not all either. There were bogus defensive holding and PI called against the Seahawks, among other things. Hey, calls are going to be missed and some calls are going to be made that shouldn't, that's life and what is to be expected.

What's BS though are non-Seahawks fans only complaining when something goes the Seahawks way while completely ignoring the shit that hurt the Seahawks. Like last week, the Saints only win because of two crucial illegal pick plays (four total but two were critical), no outrage from fans. The NFL later admitted they should have been called, no one cares. But here, Seahawks are up 28-17 at halftime and the refs make a wonky call/no call during their FG attempt and everyone goes crazy, as if the refs didn't make shitty calls that hurt the Seahawks throughout the game and cost them a game last week.

Seattles defense has been on the field 76 minutes over the last 2 games, has given up 800 total yards and 50 points. They got pushed around ALL NIGHT last night in the trenches by BUF OL. McCoy didnt have a loss of yards until the 4th QTR.

Their inability to get OFF the field is concerning IMHO.

Bennett and Kam better get their asses back in the lineup...

It was their worst game defensively. It was mainly due to McCoy shedding tackles and getting past the initial rush of defenders. Often times he was hit at the line of scrimmage or in the backfield but he'd get positive yards anyways. I'm not too worried about that because it's something they can clean up and there aren't many McCoy's in the league.

For the season thought they've been solid, they won the early season games without question. The defense will be fine, they are getting some key guys back the rest they can clean up and fix. What would help is the offense having long drives, which is hard without a running game so we can only hope Rawls can make a big bumps.
