Seattle has allowed 0 offensive touchdowns in the last 2 games.
I'll bet we score at least 1 offensive touchdown.
And they gave up about 425 yards of offense in both games.. and no touchdowns.
So if we have 400 yards of offense and no touchdowns, it will mean Manziel isn't really that good... but that's not what it means for Bridgewater and Flacco.
You guys are way to generous with how many points we'll score. We have a decimated WR core going up against the best secondary in the NFL with pass rushers galore.

That's probably why they signed the new RB. I am still scratching my head about cutting Jennings tho. The times he has been out there he has looked decent.
I fully expect a loss but hope and think we will play with fire, passion and keep it competitive.
I'm interested in watching what I feel is the most noticeable difference (though there are many) between the two teams... and that is the way the defense pursues and hits, especially in the back half of the defense.
I've been very critical of how our LBs and DBs don't punish anybody, they drag people to the ground. In recent years, Seattle has been the poster child for making you pay for catching a pass across the middle or out in the flat.
If we can match that level of intensity and that level of aggression, we have a chance to stay in this game.

I expect Shelton to lightly shove Wilson to the ground and get flagged 15 yards..
Then later in the game Johnny will roll out and get leveled by two defenders after he throws the ball but their will be no flag..
Andrew Hawkins will likely leave with a concussion if he plays..
Because certain teams, Seattle, Pitt, Baltimore (Lewis/Reed era) are allowed to hit people late, or high.. because thats just "[Insert Team] Football"
By if any other team does it, your Matthew Dellevadova diving for a loose ball and get labeled "dirty"
Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?
Well tackling gives them a real advantage. We hug 'em well. And they cover; we chase. They punish and sew will if we hold long enough.
Big difference in the scheme. Their defense tears some folks in half. Take heart!
We have Bowe AND new unis. They haven't been together much, but it is progress. We do have one ugly hill to climb Sunday. Another day, another gut check. I will root for us, but I am tired of overlooking the lame and stupid stuff. Don't battle; win the bloody game.

I have a feeling Cooper is going to have a good game. This is the kind of QB we need him against. Based on Carroll's comments about their RB situation I think they are going to throw it a lot. Very few DL can move like Cooper does and if Wilson tries to buy time or roll out against Cooper he could be in trouble. Just a hunch.
browns lose to seattle 35 to 12 after we miss all field goals. We get a surprise TD 1st drive of the game and then seattle goes nuts. Then in garbage time JM leads them to another score.
You can't fix stupid but you can destroy ignorance. When you destroy ignorance you remove the justifications for evil. If you want to destroy evil then educate our people. Hate is a tool of the stupid to deal with what they can't understand.
Man I'm torn...my head says it will be a whoopin and a sound one to boot...but the heart is saying hey remember that Monday night game against the Giants in 2008 that noooone said we could win..well Im having one of those thoughts also.
yeah i feel you. i dread us winning and watching the draft go up in smoke.

IDK 31-10 Seattle:/
That was a freakin' GREAT game!!! I had a Browns high for two or three days afterwards. Not kidding!
I'm a little bit afraid to even watch our game today as I think this week we might look a lot like the 49ers did against us last week.
Let's hope for the best but BE PREPARED: I suggest everyone who drinks start drinking early today, maybe around 1 pm. By four? Things shouldn't matter as much!

Completely different situation. We were a good team with a ton of playmakers coming off a 10-6 season. What we are currently watching is a dumpster fire or a trainwreck or futility that is rarely seen in professional sports.
Having said that, I'm feeling good about today for some reason. May drive down to the casino and put a moneyline bet down on the team.
LOL - The Rish will be upset with this news as well. KS just doesn't prioritize winning...

Rish while I understand your point...if this old mans memory isnt failing me...we had an absolutely awful offense that year...and well no one thought we could win...
So I guess what I'm saying is..we are awful again and no one thinks we can compete let alone win was my only correlation I was trying to make.
Either way...I hope we monday night Giants game them
37 to 6 seahawks. Dont be suprised if manziel is knocked out of the game at some point. Also I have a feeling gaines....who for some strange reason is starting over desir will get tourched over and over today

John 3:16 Jesus said "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."
I hate to predict it, but it wouldn't surprise me if Johnny got hurt. They have a real pass rush and our line is pretty bad this year. Johnny will take a lot of hits today.

I'm thinking the same thing. Johnny gets hurt and our D gives up in the first quarter. This could be one of those epic beatings.
The only real hope is the Seahawks take us very lightly and don't bother showing up. Perhaps they drank the town dry last night.... Nah, these guys like playing football. Wish our players did.
We didn't have an awful offense that year yet. It was game 5 of the season.
I'll drop it here because frankly its irrelevant...but when I googled it this was in the article that described the win...and I know what game it was I was there..but this is a snippet of the article.
Actually, on a nationally televised stage, they got embarrassed by the Cleveland Browns, 35-14, snapping their eight-game winning streak and their run of 12 straight wins away from home. In their worst performance in nearly 11 months, the Giants' third-ranked defense was shredded by the NFL's worst offense. And Manning helped throw the game away with three interceptions - three times as many as he had in the first four games.on
so I'll move on ok?? and like I said hope we stomp Seattle like we did to the Giants...in the Giants game
