[G. Host]

Seattle Seahawks receiver Koren Robinson was suspended without pay Monday for the next four games for violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy. NFL career receiving leader Jerry Rice, who started and had three receptions for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 win over Miami, will take over at Robinson's position.NFL career receiving leader Jerry Rice, who started and had three receptions for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 win over Miami, will take over at Robinson's position. more (http://newslink.nandomedia.com/SportServer/football/nfl/story/n-9761746c.html)

This is a slight advantage to Bills in upcoming game in that they need time to adjust. I'll take every advantage I can.

We get to shut-down Rice twice this year. :up:

[BAM]

Good observation. :up:

:gobills:

[TigerJ]

Koren Robinson gone. Matt Hasselback back. The fact that Dilfer played QB versus Miami helped keep that game closer than it would have been. I think I would rather have faced Seattle with Robinson and without Hasselback, but them's the breaks.

What a waste of talent this guy has been. Everyone expects his breakout season in August but it still hasn't happened.

[Drive 4 Five]

Well I guess that explains why he drops all those passes. :tired:

Koren was also benched vs. the Dolphins because he broke team rules. He really needs to grow up. Not to mention that Chad Brown is now out for 6 weeks. So the Hawks are now without their 2 starting OLBs (Simmons and Brown). Plus backup LB Tracy White is hurt. :fury:

I think we have a legit shot at this game. There D isn't spectacular by any means. Yes, they can run the ball with Alexander. But, I know we will shut him down somewhat. I think if we can put the game solely in Hasselbecks hands, without KRob to throw to, we can pretty much double cover DJax and I think we will be fine. Jerramy Stevens will not be us and I know Jerry Rice, the best ever, is too old to really put a dagger in our hearts. Hell, we shut him out already once this season.

If our D can continue with this new fire they have been playing with, we have a real shot at this game. We could be, like some of us said, 2-1 over the last 3 going into the softer part of our schedule. It still remains to be seen which Bledsoe shows up but I hope he just manages the game cause McGahee will be a key factor the rest of the way.

I wonder if DB will be amped, because of it kind of being a homecoming for him. I hope so.

Bills have trouble covering the TE. That's been a weakness they've had for at least 8 years.

[Jayhawk]

just hope that we can now put up 35+ on them

Time to scoop up Mili or Stevens in my FFLs. :snicker:

Milloy also went to school for Washington. Plus Sam Adams used to play for the Seahawks.

[THATHURMANATOR]

If this game was in Buffalo there would be another Blowout but the Bills are a totally different team on the road.

[sutz12]

Losing Robinson probably helps the Seahawks.


Nobody in Seattle is taking this game lightly. We are in must win mode.

Sam Adams also owns a minor league football there so you know there will be a vocal Adams segment.
