Re: How Many Games Until T-Jack Is Benched In Seattle?
I have a beer bet on it my friend.

I know its hard for some to understand, but I bet that Charlie would have had the same issues TJ had last week if he would have started.
Our backup DLmen basically 4 fronted their OL and made them look stupid doing it.
On a side note, I sure in the hell hope that last comment is something we will see from our DL all year long but still worry about a bit. TJ as 2 rooks on his right side, a backup LT and a new C trying to gel with limited hitting time.
Most will start with the "Excuses excuses" stuff, but if they really really looked at it from a "Football" prespective instead of looking to see if I am making excuses, they will agree to some extent.Many many thanks to my talented friend Jos for the new Sig.

Put it this way.
Webb is already better than TJ in many respects as a QB and he is 3rd on the depth chart and has not been handed anything.
At least when things break down he looks for opportunities and makes things happen instead of shutting down and going into his shell.

I tend to agree with you on that one point.

It does appear that Musgrove/Coach Johnson seem to encourage them to move it with their legs a bit. My guess, its why he was selected to coach the QB's. He seemed to do OK with VY when he was with Tn.
One thing to watch, that we aren't seeing so far in pre-season games, is will defenses be able to keep the intense pressure up for 4 full quarters against that young OL (Speaking of the Seachickens) or will they wear down a bit allowing the OL to settle in as well.
Can't imagine what those two rooks on the right side are feeling like right about now. A good sign is no one on that team is throwing anyone under the bus right now.
Maybe Caroll will get it right this time. I always wonder what it would have been like if they would have tapped him instead of Denny.Many many thanks to my talented friend Jos for the new Sig.

Could have fooled me based on some of the posts on this site.

I actually wasn't talking about the webb moving the ball with his legs.

It would be interesting to see even Webb behind the Seachickens OL. he might make a few posters rework their theory on the quality of the OL when he actually completes a few passes down the field to Mr Rice. That would make for a sure fire 20 page discussion complete with shifts and backtracks.

I missed that part. Sorry for the confusion.

My guess is bevell doesn't see the point in running rice out there and taking the risk of him getting injured yet again since TJ isn't going to be able to hit him deep anyway and he is waiting for Whitehurst to get up to speed before he starts to get him more involved so there is at least a small chance of getting him the ball.
