Seahawks Roundup
Anybody can go to the Seattle P-U or The Slimes sports pages to get the local view of the Boys in Blue, or as ElegantDistractions likes to call them, the Maul Rats.
On the other hand, it's not espcially easy to find articles on the Seahawks in the national press, in spite of that Super Bowl thingie you may have heard about. Nevertheless, I've tracked down some good pieces.
Let's start with a pretty good article on Holmgren.
USA Today has provided the most coverage so far, more than even the NFL itself, with writings on Jerramy Stevens, Big Walt, and Matt Hasselbeck. They also have two write-ups on the defense here and here.
The numbers geeks at Football Outsiders gave Lofa a nice review prior to the Panthers game.
Somebody even wrote about the owner and his contributions to the team, besides the fat wallet.
Dr. Cheeks explains the silliness around the fight for the underdog position. Best line:
You also have to think that other NFL teams' marketing departments curse when they see the flag raised in Seattle before every game -- "#@$%, why didn't we think of that?!"
Team updates can be found on an irregular basis at Fox Sports.
TMQ provides a nice review of the Panthers game in his unique style, saying "Finally someone had a game plan for Steve Smith!"
Finally, here is a video trying to explain why the Seahawks are the underdogs in the Big Fight.
