I didn't get to watch the game Live because it wasn't televised in the Springfield, MO, area. What I saw was our interior getting chewed up, especially Barnes, and a very rattled Clemens.
It was a classic case of 8 in the box and our offense unable to burn them deep. Seattle was daring us to test their secondary and Clemens was perfectly fine with throwing 4 yard pass when he needed 8 yards towards the end. Stacy did what could but he couldn't do it alone.
Givens looked so small out there. He's such a small WR but some small WR's play big. Quick actually had some moments where he broke loose but Clemens looked like he wasnt having any judging from his happy feet. He was seeing ghosts even when Seattle didn't bring heat.
Games are won and lost in the trenches, right? We were out numbered and over powered at the line and never gave Seattle reason to give Stacy breathing room or back the line backers up. Short throws just weren't gonna do it but Rams/Clemens played it very safe.
I was happy with our defense overall. They let Wilson squirm away a few times but he does that to everybody. They were on the field the whole game it seemed. We could use another CB, LB to groom, DL depth, maybe a FS but not much is needed. The offense is where the question marks are.
