Seahawks WLB LeRoy Hill's groin injury will cost him at least the next six weeks and may require surgery.
Beat reporter Danny O'Neil says Hill won't return before November 1; after Seattle's Week 7 bye. Will Herring has been tabbed as the interim starter. Hill's loss would be more concerning if the Seahawks' linebacker corps wasn't already so strong. First-round pick Aaron Curry and MLB Lofa Tatupu will keep things together. The defensive line is also much improved.

Lets see if we can exploit that some how. You know they are going to cover that side bc of the inexperience. They didn't give Hill a new contract for nothing. They still got two other studs though.

Yeah the key for us to go 2-0, is the O-line, the Seahawks ain't gonna score many points against us at our crib mind you.

I mean if Nate can shut down Fitz every single time since he signed that big deal, TJ who's your 30 year old possession receiver-mamma, and they have no O-line. I mean Zona doesn't have that good of an O-line, but Seattle's is just awful.

So it's gonna be all about giving Hill time and keeping him upright, and giving Gore enough room to be Gore.
