Semi-regular musings of a ‘puter guy/sports “fan”

Hasselbeck and Alexander flubbing another basic run causes another Seahawks loss - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

    This article makes me feel much better about being a Seahawk fan.  Everyone is taking some of the heat for the botched run.  They’re manning up to the mistake.  Shawn for thinking too much.  Hass for taking the responsibility to make sure everyone is on the same page.  Coach for making sure everyone understands the situation.  Everyone talking about what they need to do, what there roles are and all three are exactly correct.  Coach handles the big picture.  It’s inside two minutes, no time to be audibling, just call the play and go.  Time is the enemy at this point and you don’t have the luxury to go around and do a bunch of audibles.  Hass is the QB, he’s the Field General, make sure everyone knows what’s going on and what they’re supposed to do in that particular moment.  It’s on him.  Shawn to stop thinking so much and just run the play.  You have to commit to the play or bad things happen…like the fumble.  I’m pretty confident you won’t see this happen again and I think if another defense starts changing things up like it sounds the Cardinals did, it will be a different story.  I think the teams a good team, much better than some in the national media think.  They just need to trust each other more and commit to the play.  Holmgren is a good coach, he’s got a good idea of what needs to be done and how to do it.  Trust each other fellas, trust each other.
