Another Seattle loss
Short post today as my sleep day today is shortened due to a work meeting,so just a quick version.
The Seattle Seahawks almost took a gift win from the Arizona Cardinals,who kept trying to hand the ball and free scores to the Hawks,but in the end,the freebies weren't enough as the Cardinals pranced from Qwest Field with a 26-21 win.
The inability to stop the Redbirds from playing pitch and catch at will was the difference as Seattle had no way of stopping Kurt Warner from throwing for almost 400 yards and almost half of those to Anquan Boldin.
All three Seattle Touchdowns were on short drives caused by Arizona turnovers...
Time constraints keep me from too many thoughts,I will try to do those later in the week after a tape breakdown.
Snow in Buffalo tonight as the Browns stagger into the other NFL city by Lake Erie.
Maybe a new tradition is starting of snow each time Buffalo and Cleveland play.
I was a proponent of Buffalo joining the division with the Ohio teams and the Steelers for a cool division geographic wise,but the Bills wanted to stay with their rivals and the Baltimore Modells wanted to keep their rivalries (only no one counts them as a rival),so it didn't work out.
With the weather seeming to be a factor,three things stand out to me.
One-Which of the young QB's without the deep pass can brave the wind and snow better?
Brady Quinn or Trent Edwards?
Two-I think the team that wins the ground game has a huge edge here.
Jamal Lewis vs Marshawn Lynch?
I will take the better bad weather back in Lewis.
Three-Special teams will play a huge role with both teams using terrific returners with Josh Cribbs for Cleveland and Terrence McGee for the Bills.
Remember that one mistake can be the difference in bad weather over the course of the game.
Our Prediction;
Browns 13-10
