I have higher hopes for this team than any other team I’ve been on in the (15 years) I’ve been here. -- Mack Strong

Seahawks kick off to the Rams to start the game. Bulger is playing with broken ribs and hasn’t played for 2 weeks.

1st and 10 for the Rams from the 30 – Bulger hands off to a Ram rookie and our defense was tough. MeBane on the tackle after all the hype he received in the Seattle press this week.
2nd and 10 – Leonard to run for an 8 yard gain.
3rd and 2 – Passing play – good defense by Trufant – pass falls incomplete. NICE!
4th and 2 – Rams to punt; Burleson fields the punt and has some nice blocks. 7 yard return.

1st and 10 for the Seahawks from the 29. Pass to Heller who is in for Pollard who is injured.
2nd and 4 – Pass to a wide open Burleson for a 12 yard gain.
1st and 10 – Shaun to run; he hits the hole quickly and gets positive yardage. Good for him after all the negative press he’s been getting.
2nd and 6 – From midfield, Flags. Shaun to run through a hole. The penalty is off-sides on the defense. Declined; first down for the Seahawks.
1st and 10 – Hass to Weaver for a big first down! 15 yards on the play! NICE!
1st and 10 – Shaun to run. Doesn’t get much this time when he tries to run East and West.

1st and 10 – Shaun to run, jukes a bit but finds a hole and plows through.
2nd and 5 – Hass to Engram near the sidelines. It must be cold in Seattle – the SeaGals are in pants!
3rd and 1 – Mo to run for the first down but doesn’t get into the end zone. Great running. It took Mo a while to reach the first down marker from the outside. Nice job, Mo!
1st and goal – Hass to Heller for a touchdown!! AWESOME!!!

Seahawks 7 - Rams 0

Seahawks kick off to the Rams. Nice kick into the end zone but the Rams run it out anyway. He got to the 24 so it paid off for the Rams.

1st and 10 for the Rams – Running play to Leonard for a first down and more. Jennings on the tackle. That was a 17 yard play. Hmpf.
1st and 10 – Bulger to pass and it fell incomplete.

2nd and 10 – Shaun to run – loss on the play.
3rd and 11 – Mo to run, does for a second effort but it looks like he’s shy of the first down. They’re going ot measure but I think it’s short. It’s about an inch short. We’re going for it! WA HOOOO!!!!
4th and an inch – Mo to run wide and he’s short. Oops. Why didn’t we push forward at the line? Silly play.

2nd and 9 – Bulger held it too long, was nearly sacked, Bulger flipped the ball out and we almost got an INT.
3rd and 9 – Bulger to pass to a wide open Isaac Bruce. It wasn’t even a good pass but Bruce was wide open. The announcers said that was the first completion for Bulger.
1st and 10 – Leonard to run for 12 yards. Good grief. He went through a lot of tackles.
1st and goal – Nothing doing there on a run for the Rams.

4th and 17 – Time out Seattle. Huh? Why did we do that after all the time that was just passing by. Weird. Rams have -4 yards passing. Wow, that’s nuts. Burleson misjudged the kick and ran back after it. He finally fielded it at the 10-ish and ran to regain a few yards. Yikes! That wasn’t textbook!!!
