@smartfootball: Honest RT @RapSheet: A reporter informed Vince Wilfork that #Gronk is out the postseason. Wilfork said, "We don't have him? Oh (expletive)."

Get well soon buddy! Not before Feb. 4th though....

Any word on Abraham, Jones & Woodhead?

DeVier Posey suffered a torn Achilles' tendon when he went down late in the game. Another year of Kevin Walter possibly with Keshawn Martin and Lestar Jean becoming more important now, too, I think. Maybe they draft somebody.

Three things we learned: Falcons 30, Seahawks 28 | Seahawks Blog | Seattle Times

3) Zach Miller is one tough hombre.

The guy tore his plantar fascia on Seattle’s third play of the game. He went to the locker room, took a pain-killing shot on the bottom of his foot and returned to have the most prolific receiving day in not only his two-year tenure with the Seahawks, but his six-year NFL career. We’ve made a big deal out of how seldom he has been targeted in the passing game since coming to Seattle. He caught 50 or more passes in three successive seasons with the Raiders only to come to the Seahawks and catch a career-low 25 passes in 2011. He had 38 receptions in 2012, but had not had more than 59 yards receiving in any game for the Seahawks. Until Sunday. He showed exactly what he can do if the opponent neglects to account for him. Miller caught eight passes for 142 yards, most of any player in a game that also featured Atlanta’s Roddy White, Julio Jones and Tony Gonzalez. Oh, and if you want to get an idea of what that foot injury is like, please read Dan LeBatard’s moving account of what former Dolphin Jason Taylor endured to play after injuring the tissue in his feet.

One of my favorites from last year, only if Schaub targeted him more he could have shown how good of a player he is.
