Little surprised by that, I mean if there is a "valuable" pre season game, it's week three. That said, I found the Wilson statement that he is striving for a 70% completion percentage cool, the dude just doesn't stop working, and his goals never cease to evolve and grow. Will be interested greatly in watching this O-line vs. The Bears hired improvements, the DB play against two receivers that notoriously like to push and grab, and the running game competition between Turbo and Michaels, as well as Schofield/Mayowa, Coyle/Farwell fights......

LOL. Wow that looked easy. The line looked great, Lynch looked good, and Harvin made it simply look easy.

I'm absolutely loving this offense, so many playmakers, and still the grit to pound it down ssomeone's throat.

This dress rehearsal is going well:)
Looking sharp, to be sure. I like the way we're running the ball - both Beast and Michael look ready.
Passing O is on target. Man, I'm teasing myself now, lol.
Gonna make these last 13 days go slow watching this, ha.

We're looking flat out dangerous. Three possessions, 3 TD's.

Okung doesn't look good at all. He has some work to do. Britt looked pretty good run blocking, still needs to work on keeping his balance in pass blocking.
Russell is, once again, in mid season form. The offense looks great!

Ahhhhhhhhh! Thought he had his first one, tackled by the punter, really ET? LOB don't play that.... LOL... LOVE how the backup DE's are punking the starting Bears line.... Glad Schofield is back, and Marsh looks like the real deal

Getting the warm and fuzzies ( at least the pre season variety) they look ready for the Pack.

Earl Thomas - nice punt return. Still don't like this idea, though, having our defensive MVP do this stuff.
For as fragile as he's been (obviously), I would rather have Harvin doing punts. Our D won't be giving up too many points this season, and many kickoffs could be too deep to run back anyhow. Let Percy do punt duties, IMO.
EDIT: Nice catch by Michael on that TD. Pass was a lil' low and wobbly, but he adjusted and scored. Nice effort by Christine tonight.

Yep - The best running back in the NFL at making yardage out of nothing and gaining yardage after contact.
The hardest QB to sack in the NFL who is also one of the most accurate throwers and best decision maker.
The speediest Wide receiver in the entire NFL.
This offense will be a nightmare for many teams to deal with.

It's preseason, but it's good to see how sharp we are going into the Scrub Bowl (game 4).

5 Drives, 5 scores that works for me, excellent first half, maybe Future should be taking notes.....

THIS is how you want your offense to look at home in the pre season....

This is solidarity at it's finest. That P.I. call was a bit bogus, but still....wasn't expecting a shutout in the first half.

Roger that!
BTW, Futch NFL Network! Supposed to see the whole game, all the while sitting through Gameday Live they kept saying that we'd get the game in it's entirety. Then they run the highlight 35 minutes past the scheduled start of our game and joined it
live at 28-0!
Farging Ice Halls!

Wow, that sucks Bob! Maybe they meant they will replay it in it's entirety at some point later this week

I hate the NFL Network.

www.firstrowsports.euI use this website for any NFL game during the year. Maybe you have Sunday Ticket already though.

Hey how about those Seahawk DBs that can't cover without holding and illegal contact on every play that they are coached to do. What? The first team had zero holding or illegal contacts called while shutting out the best WR tandem in the NFL?
You don't say...

NOT a good call IMHO even with the Two yard cushion ( is that new this year, as I was under the impression there was no halo in the NFL) there was STILL a two yard cushion, guess the speed of Lockette eats that up pretty quick....

Congrats. I followed some on NFL.Com and saw a couple plays walking by a restaurant. Looks like a lot to be excited about.
