Good morning SKA users. It’s Tuesday and that means it’s time to Arm Yourselves… WITH KNOWLEDGE!!!
That’s right folks, I’ve actually taken a break from dismembering radioactive mutants and rescuing hapless settlers in the dust-covered wastelands. Most of you probably assume I’m talking about a video game, but I’m simply referring to the day-to-day life of a Licensed Logician, an Analytical Observationist and a Wisdomologist. It’s dirty job but somebody’s gotta do it. Because Knowledge… Knowledge never changes.
So let’s get this over with. Here’s some STATS!!!!!!!!!

What’s changed?
My, my, these stats sure are lovely. I wonder if they’re single?
Honestly, though, not much has changed. Only two teams in the division played this weekend – and one of those teams was the Rams, so we won’t be discussing that.
Instead I’ll just note that the NFCW is, once again, the Land of Great Defenses. Look at all that Yellow Highlighting! The pride I’m feeling now is enough to bring a tear to my Golden Boner. Even San Francisco’s defense has graduated from “Pathetic” to “Really Bad.” That truly gives hope to the least of us!
Offense is another story. The Rams and Niners are downright putrid, and the Seahawks aren’t doing a whole lot better. It all starts with the offensive lines, which have been offending viewers all season long. I mean, Seattle hasn’t allowed a Sack in two weeks, and they’re still #1 in the league in that department. That would be depressing, if I wasn’t such a positive-minded person.
My Analysis:
Things are getting interesting in the NFCW, and it’s only going to get better when the Fraudulent Cardinals travel to Seattle to take on the 2x Defending NFCW Champions. In addition to never winning an NFCW Title or a Playoff game, Bruce Almighty is only 1-3 against Pete Carroll. This year the Cardinals defense has not rushed the passer very well this year, and their offense is prone to turnovers.
These glaring weaknesses play right into the Seahawks’ hands. Russell Wilson had two of his best games against the Cardinals last year, with a 122.25 passer rating between the two games. If Arizona’s pass rushers are once again unable to disrupt him, he should be poised for a big day. TJack may even get some garbage time yards again.
And the Legion of Boom is thirsty for Turnovers. Chris Johnson has recently developed a bad case of the Butter Fingers, and Carson Palmer threw four interceptions the last time he came to Seattle. Should be another good confidence booster for the soon-to-be First Place Seahawks.
And now, how about your feedback? Don’t be shy, introduce yourselves to the other Knowledge Seekers! I think you’ll find the discourse to be both witty and informative.
Thank you, and always remember: Kill… Danny… O’neil………..
