Re: Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

This team has now lost 12 of 13, won 3 last year and the rest of this season looks bad. They've probably become use to losing. I give both guys a pass. Garçon always plays hard as does Trent. We don't know what was being said in the locker room. And to be honest, reporters IMO should not be reporting what guys are doing in the locker room. This is one reason why they shouldn't be in there. Seems kind of weak to me.

Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

I think this is being blown out of proportion just a bit, as usual. Nobody likes losing, but I don't think there's anything wrong with being proud of putting up your best fight in doing so. Guys are playing hard, we couldn't say that last year. I believe we're close to rattling off some wins. The players have to hang their hats on something in order to keep marching on.

Skins fans.......overeacting?
Listen to Kerrigan on the post. When asked the question. He responded that he did not remember anybody tdaking the loss lightly fwiw. I do not think they believe it was nothing. I have no problem with them taking some solace in the fact that the team..... Fought they're guts out

Being down 6 starters and even some starters banged up. It's a miracle they weren't blown out. Yeah, I'd very much would hang my hat on that kind of accomplishment seeing as how talented Seattle is.

This was hilarious.

Re: Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

What that game proved to me was if Seattle brings its c game and the skins bring their A- or B plus game... Seattle still wins by double digits.

This whole locker room mentality is being overblown. I don't think anyone was happy with being beat on national Tv two weeks in a row. One guy probably made w joke to lighten the mood and then there was laughter.

Re: Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

In the article he says basically that they worked hard but they need to show the other players through their demeanor that what's going on is not ok.

Clark, incidentally said something very similar following a preseason game

Re: Skins vs Seasquawks Positive and Negatives

I understand what you're saying. I just don't believe that Williams' and Garcon's not acting as if they are at a funeral is important.

They are pros and can compartmentalize.

I absolutely love the example Trent Williams set for the younger players to follow. Please consider the following:

1. He was questionable for the game with a dislocated knee cap.

2. He was going up against the best defense and arguably the best past rush.

3. Everybody on that team has seen the dire consequences of a player gutting a game out on a wobbly knee against Seattle.

4. Nobody, absolutely nobody would have questioned him if he said he couldn't play.

5 He came out and balled. He gave 100% on a bum knee in a game where we weren't supposed to have a chance to win.

6. He fought tooth and nail even in the fourth quarter when we had little to no chance to mount a comeback.

7. If losing respectably to a great team as a huge underdog was ok, acceptable, par, expected, he wouldn't have been battling like he was when we had no real chance to win.

I don't care if he sang happy birthday Mr president to Snyder in the locker room after the game.

Trent Williams on Monday night is THE example our young players should follow.
