1st, these are not bold. They are what 90% of talking heads believe. 2nd, Wilson throwing 3 TDs won't be that big of deal. Its what he does. 3rd, the idea that that D will slow down the Rams is wrong.
4th, the idea that Hawks will rebound offensively against the Rams defense, but the Hawks defense will hold the Rams is lunacy considering the Rams D is one of the best, while the Skanks D is one the worst. The Seadog offense is only marginally better than the Rams O, and that is only due to the little green miracle man.

So this is ill-conceived to say the least...

D is the key. Rams got it, Seahawks don't.

I really like Russell Wilson: he is my favorite Seahawk. However, having said that, I believe Aaron will be on a mission to make Russell his personal bitch tomorrow. The Horns need this win to establish the rhythm for the 2nd half of this season, and Aaron, as the top defensive leader, is going to deliver.

I do not know how big A'Shawn "ARob" Robinson will be in his very first game as a Horn, but defending a 330-pound NT AND The Kraken! is a tall order no interior OL has had to face for quite a while. ARob's influence will grow even more in the following games as he rounds into game shape. Our edge rushers will have eight games to really grow & flesh out their techniques as they shape up for the playoffs. It is high time for our LB crew to truly become a relevant unit on this defense.

Our megabuck CB/S, Jalen Ramsey, is back in time to face our biggest divisional foe. Jalen knows a thing or two about making statements with your play, and, like Aaron, he needs to ramp up his play to set the pace for the rest of this season, including the upcoming playoffs. Our magical Leprechaun must have his revenge against all the idiots who think they have him figured out, and Jalen is very good at establishing exclamation points.

Speaking about The Revenge of the Leprechaun seasonal theme, it is about time for Sean and Jared to really start forging an offensive juggernaut. We can't have all this uber player talent going to waste. Gerald Everett, Cam Akers, and Van Jefferson need to really develop some positive consistency moving forward. By the time the post season arrives, they cannot afford to still be part-time players or rookies experience-wise. Going 5-3 or 6-2 in the season's 2nd half would be respectable, but I would very much prefer we go 7-1 or run the table completely!

It's arse-kicking time!!!

Rams need Ramsey to have a solid game against DK Metcalf, Henderson’s time to shine in this game, Everett and Higbee need to be Goffs security on theses Zero blitz packages...IMO
Would love to see Henderson get involved in the passing game as an extension of the running game this week.

They are very good.
A ton of chunk plays.
When the pocket breaks down....usually from Wilson holding the ball....the receivers will run all the way across the field or just keep running deep and he launches a rainbow ball. More often than not it’s a catch or a PI.
The scary thing is the defense can play very well and you still need to score 31 + to win.
