Re: W3: Home opener- Seahawks Prediction thread

Looks like we will be without Okonkwo, Luvu, Cross, and Cosmi. That's pretty rough (on top of the others we all know are out). I am not expecting this game to be competitive.

Having said that, as bad as the back end of our defense has been, and as mediocre (at best) as the O-line has been, we were competitive against the Eagles (in their stadium no less). We also had chances to tie Dallas going into the half and should have tied them in the 3rd quarter but for the appalling incompletion call by the officials. Obviously, the wheels came off after that and giving up big plays has been a massive problem.

But our running game and run D have been stout, and our passing game has showed some potential (Diggs and Williams have been real bright spots). And before his injury, Cross was playing well on the back end (the only one, really), and Styles looks like he's going to be very good too. There are bright spots (although not enough of them), and it's still pretty early. I'm not quite ready to give up on the team or the season yet, even though we have a rough initial stretch, particularly with all the injuries. But I'd really like to see what this team can accomplish if we can get Amos, Cosmi, Luvu, Okonkwo, Cross, and, of course, JD5 back and healthy. And no more injuries, please!
