Disagree 60. The birds certainly have the ability to kick Seatle's ass. They didn't do it last night but they have the ability--- Seattle isn't 12-0; they are beatable.
Wentz came out tight. He missed at least four wide open receivers. The coach came out tight. Didn't have the best game plan although it wasn't terrible. He did make a bad challenge on a play where it was 50-50 for the spot and they only had 6 inches to gain. He then didn't challenge a pretty obvious forward pass. The team couldn't get off the penalty tree. There were at least two real nice returns called back for penalties and the O and D was getting flagged too much.
Wilson is brutal to get if he breaks the pocket. Just too hard to get. And they have a couple of playmakers, but the birds do too. What worried me more than the offense not getting in gear was the D not being able to get to Wilson and DBs not being able to keep up with receivers for an extended period (although you have to wonder if there wasn't just as much pushing off by the receivers as there was dbacks holding the receivers).
