Seahawks Lose Cougars Win

I mentioned before I wouldn't be surprised if the Seahawks
would lose in Buffalo against the Bills. Sadly I was right.

The final score was Buffalo 44 Seattle 34

The trouble was the Seahawks couldn't stop the Bills from
scoring and they had four turnovers that help the Bills score
as well.

The defense is still having trouble keeping the other team
from scoring. The Seahawks may have a 6-2 record at this
point but unless they can improve the defense they won't
win the Super Bowl most likely. 

The Seahawks probably will make the playoffs and win their
division; however, the ultimate goal is to win the Super Bowl.
They don't have to have the best defense but  they do need one
that can stop the other team to some degree. When the offense
is running well then they will win but when the offense isn't 
doing as well no win. 

The Washington State Cougars beat the Oregon State Beavers
on Saturday night 38-28. Both teams had a rough start  not able
to get going in the first quarter. The Cougars scored on their 
third time having the ball on a long pass by freshman quarterback
Jayden de Laura when the Beavers defense broke down. 

Jayden de Laura  ended up completing 18 of 33 passes for 227 
yards and two touchdowns. I expect he will do better since he
was making his college debut.  Often de Laura passed outside 
the pocket. This could have a lot to do with Beavers defense 
as well. 

The Cougars will take on the Oregon Ducks next Saturday 
afternoon. The Ducks are ranked # 11  beating Stanford on
Saturday 35-14. Oregon will be coming to WSU to take on
the Cougars.  Jayden de Laura will have to do much better
especially at the beginning of the game for the Cougars to
have any chance.

Oregon State will be going to Seattle to take on the Washington
Huskies. It will be the Huskies first game since the opening game
against California Golden Bears was cancelled because of  a
player being tested for covid-19 for the Golden Bears.

Oregon State will have to do better next week as well. They
will be taking on one of the best passing defenses in the Pac-12.
The Beavers best chance will be running the ball to start out
the game. If they can't run the ball it will be a tough game for
them to win. 

The Seahawks announced Head Coach has signed an extension
to his contract so it looks like he will be around Seattle until
2025. Good news to the 12th man. Go Hawks!
