WEEK BY WEEK
With Mike Holmgren


Preseason Week 1: "Mike Holmgren ... He doesn't look happy but I'm sure he is." -- Pat Summerall, following a touchdown by the Seahawks

Preseason Week 2: "Seneca comes in and, bless his heart, gives us a spark." -- Coach Mike Holmgren

Preseason Week 3: "It's encouraging to me after last week, because we didn't play real hard last week." -- Coach Mike Holmgren






Seahawks 14 - Jets 37
Beaten again by bad officials, muffed calls, and our worst enemy...ourselves.

How we still have a chance to not only make the playoffs, but WIN the playoffs, is beyond this Seahawk fan. I was shocked to read in the newspapers that even if we were to lose the next two games, we could still walk away with the division title. It hardly seems fair that a 7-9 team can make the playoffs but if worst comes to worst and that's the way it happens, then I hope we pull out the stops in the playoff game. I'll be shaking my head the whole time but I won't deny our boys a post-season game, even if we get there the ugly way.

I just don't know what to say about a game that was so awful on so many levels. If ever there was a rival in the making, it's got to be the Jets and the Seahawks for no other reason than the officiating crew that continually makes bad calls in these games. It was unbelievable.

But we can't pin this loss solely on the officials. Our defense was bad. We allowed the Jets to run at will and were powerless to stop them. Our offense made crucial mistakes. At this point in the season we should know the plays and the formations, we should have some chemistry. We don't.

It's not too late to get it going. GO HAWKS!
