I’m officially concerned about our stud back . Our odds of making the playoffs are still decent but unless we have a credible run game and some more defense it will br a short ride if we get there .

I think Homer can put up 100. Maybe more. Just N.F. L.
as the late great Jerry Glanville said "not for long". his slight frame may be why hes down the depth chart but hes probably our most athletic back after Walker. Hes demonstrated his burst on a couple of huge ST plays housing a fake punt vs the 9ers and also housing an onsides attempt vs the Jags. He looked really sharp at times in the preseason. We need him today and hopefully we can get KWs panties untangled for next week. How you go from some tissue inflammation nobody ever heard of to likely missing most of a second game....Apologies to Beast Mode for any references. He would be taped up and playing.
I think this might be Travis Homeruns first start. Maybe channel a little Baker . Its his chance to show seattle and the league he can run the ball. I hope he can as I think this is going to be a rock fight and so does Huard and I'm sure PC as well. Were playing against the QB who got the great Baker Mayfield cut

They bring in extra linemen. Smash mouth.For the second time in 3 weeks were playing a team that is coming off a win and a bye and were supposed to walk on them averaging giving up 200 yards rushing?
Fasten your seat belts.
