Now to see who will be our starting QB? And will Kamara and Thomas dress?

If Winston is back I would tell him not to trust his receivers. Last year he was pretty good with horrible receivers he could not trust. This year he has much better receivers and is somehow worse, I guess because he is confident his first read will get open and make the play in triple coverage. I guess maybe he needs to pretend Michael Thomas and Chris Olave are Trequan Smith and Kevin White, then he can have a 5:1 TD:INT ratio because he will be careful. Then again maybe Sean Payton was the difference last year. But if Dalton starts, he can just play normal and we will be ok but probably not win if its a big shootout.

Game 2 of the bird gauntlet. Let's get it done.

I hope DA saw that Dalton is less chaotic than Winston.

Long term, I don't think any QB's on this roster are the answer, but as of right now, Dalton plays like a veteran and Winston plays like a rookie.

I just heard Pete Carroll on Moving the Chains and he said that Dalton was better in the pocket and got rid of the ball faster than Winston. All in all hew sounded like he was hoping Winston was starting.

This D is going to have their hands full with Geno Smith (wow never thought I'd say that)

Leads the league in completion percentage and a huge threat to run the ball. Considering our D has struggled against stationary QB's, this could be a matchup nightmare.

Yeah, not sure this one is gonna work out well. Long travel back for the Saints. Seattle’s been putting up a lot of points. Hope to keep it close for morale sake only to watch the refs screw us in the end.

Seattle had one good offensive game against a bad Detroit defense scoring 48 points, but allowing 45 points. Only two TD's came off the arm of the great Geno Smith. Their defense had a pick six to score 7 of those points.

Other than that they lost at home to the same Falcons team we beat in Atlanta. They only managed 7 points against the 49ers. They only scored 17 against the Broncos.

They are ranked 31st in the league in points allowed.
They are 29th in the league in rushing yards allowed.
They are 28th in the league in passing yards allowed.
