There is an obvious disconnect in your logic. It's called homerism.

Do we need to get more physical or is it just bad luck?

That's not illegal and not even being tested. What is your point Boast? I thought 49er fans whine and profess that Seahawks are roid-ers and that they cheat to win. smh...Thank you again, for further strengthening my point. Seahawks are not roid-heads..
I'm late to the party but just an FYI from the Seattle Times article a year ago: http://seattletimes.com/html/seahawks/2019776708_adderall28.html
The NFL, by virtue of a confidentiality provision in its contract with the NFL union, never discloses the substance involved in a violation. That has led to suspicions that in some instances, players or their representatives claim Adderall use because there is less stigma attached to an amphetamine with an acknowledged medical purpose than to other banned substances, such as anabolic steroids
Basically, Adderall is in the same category as roids but PR guys leak this info b/c it has less of a negative perception. That said, there have been some MD's in this board who also state athletes not only take roids but Adderall as well b/c it helps speed up the system, breaks down the "evidence" and flushes the system out quicker for the decreased likelihood an athlete gets caught when tested by the NFL.
The NFL also does their part as well by spreading these testings, fines and suspensions out (including the built-in appeal process itself coupled with "technicalities") IMHO so as not to hurt the "product on the field"...esp. around playoff times.
$$$$$$ and lies and hypocrisy. It's the NFL!
When Sherman can run toe-to-toe with VD and roid-rages every other day in the media, you may want to at least raise a red flag even if he is one hell of a player on your team...esp. in this day and age (cough, Lance Armstrong, cough).
Yeah I find it really odd that Sherman somehow got dramatically faster over the last two years. Somehow he runs with VD and in our regular season win over them, he out ran Earl Thomas to tackle Frank Gore on the 51 yard run. No way this dude naturally got as fast as Thomas and VD. Maybe it was just those particular plays, but Sherman sure use to be kind of slow. Now I don't know if there is stuff that helps you become faster, but I know there is stuff that helps you recover a lot faster which will affect your speed as the season goes on. When dude that ran a 4.54 is suddenly running with 4.3 guys, something is up.

No. We beat them at home this year and last year. They had 4 possessions in great scoring position against us and rammed it down our throat for a whopping 3 points. Not 3 points each possession but 3 points total. One we sacked them twice and forced a punt. Twice they fumbled and once they got us for a field goal. We out hit them and out sacked them and probably would have won if the officials called a good game.
Our players were hurt because their players rolled up or dove on the backs or sides of their legs. I wonder if on purpose. Seattle is hardly the leader in sportsmanship and fair play. They lead the league in penalties and performance enhancing substance busts.
Our offensive line has trouble in seattle but what offensive line plays well while wearing ear plugs? How do you get off the ball on a snap count to drive block for the run?
As for Suggs he can kiss my A. Aldon Smith is ten times the player he is. I wouldn't trade Ahmed Brooks for him. They beat us last year because Aldon and Justin Smith were both playing hurt and couldn't mount a pass rush. They gutted it out hurt but with out a rush Flacco had all day and killed us. We scored on them big time but they outscored us. It was hardly Suggs and his toughness that won the game for them.

Thread title is: "Are the Seahawks more physical"
Answer: "Duh"
How's that for being germane, vinculumjuris?

Never said it wasn't germane to the thread title. I said it wasn't germane to the conversation. Reading comprehension not working for you today?

Reports now breaking about Pete Carroll doing some weird gene therapy (currently the new "cheat" completely test-proof) treatment that supplements his hormones with alien DNA. And he's not 79 years old, he's only 77 or 78 maybe.
Originally posted by znk916:I don't know if they are more physical but I think their style on defense is more aggressive and makes big plays as opposed to ours which is more suffocating and prevents big plays (well in theory at least).
Originally posted by CitrusHawk:Ok, ok. You win. YOUR "superlative" posts where you demonstrate your vigilant monitoring of my conversation adherence has paid off. I'm a changed fan. The Seahawks are NOT more physical and they all take steroids (which is the only way conceivable that they can even compete with the 49ers).
