Kush just doesn't wow me. I don't see enough of an upgrade to start him over Morse. Let Morse learn on the job. Yes, start Fulton if we don't get Mathis. LDT will be fine as a backup. |

The question is, however, are you ready to suffer the growing pains to start this season. Quote:

Let me know what you think after watching. And yes, I think I'd let the growing pains happen with Morse. I'd let LDT be a backup for now. |

When has he really let us down in game situations? They had him in the dog house for God knows what reasons last season but they were also starting Mike Mglynn so these idiots have no idea what they're doing. People are bitching because camp reports haven't been good and he was drafted one pick before Russell Wilson but for all intents and purposes he's risen to the occasion when we needed him to. He's got hella potential and versatility. |

So I think the Fanaika experiment can end now, yes?
That was awful. And really, it wasn't a fair request to make of him to be honest - we shouldn't have expected a guy that mauls his way to limited success at G to be even remotely credible at T. That said, he got abused badly enough to almost single-handedly limit what we were able to do offensively. Then again, he definitely had a partner in crime with LDT. Bottom line is that we saw the difference in talent going against the 2s. LDT looked pretty damn outstanding against AZs second string; he was exposed pretty badly going against Seattle's 1s. Fulton should be the starting RG and I'd be shocked if that doesn't end up the case. I don't get the Morse angst. Sure, he's a little inexperienced with the line calls but only time will straighten that out. In the meantime, he did a pretty damn decent job against a very good interior line. I really don't understand why everyone's ready to move on to Kush all of the sudden - I saw no notable increase in performance when Kush came in and he wasn't playing against nearly as tough a front as Morse was. There was one notable breakdown I can recall and that was when we were asking Morse to get out and pull to pick up KJ Wright; he missed and we lost 6. Now that's just poor scheming, IMO. If you're asking a C to go block KJ Wright, he's going to fail to get there more often than he succeeds. And when that result yields a 6 yard loss, it may just be time to take that out of the playbook. (Wright was a monster on Friday, for the record). Grubbs was just quietly good - I'll take that. Stephenson was again very good out there. Maybe he's got his head screwed on straight because if he can play even 90% that well over at RT, he's a big time addition. I expect Fisher - Grubbs - Morse - Fulton - Stephenson will be our week 1 setup and I think we'll have a damn nice OL for the effort.

I watched the kj wright play over and iver. He came from the back side and ran down charles. It was ****ing impressive. The Seahawks front 7 is just as good as its backfield.

It's also possible that I'm just mis-reading how it was supposed to work and somebody else blew it. As the play is progressing, you see Morse stumble trying to get to the edge and fall. Even if he gets there clean, he probably doesn't get to Wright on time. He was just a missile on that play.

Call me crazy, but I really wouldn't mind seeing Stephenson - Grubbs - Morse - Fulton - Fisher.

Not only are we talking about the 1.1, but they also signed him to a pretty lucrative LT contract. With Stephenson in, or nearing, a contract year, the last thing they want is to be paying two guys LT contracts. |
