Issues up front led to an abysmal offensive performance in which the Seahawks managed just one field goal in a 14-5 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Below are five thoughts after having reviewed the game and looked at the numbers. 1. The Seahawks went into this game believing their pass protection would hold up well against the Bucs, and they'd be able to do damage through the air. They were wrong. As Carroll put it, left tackle George Fant "had a hard time" all afternoon, consistently losing his one-on-one battles and allowing pressure off the edge. Germain Ifedi had a lot of trouble with the Bucs' stunts. And none of the other linemen played well either. Russell Wilson was sacked six times and hit 11 more. He was pressured on 60 percent of his dropbacks, the most of any quarterback in Week 12. What's concerning is that this was not a great pass-rush. The Bucs came in ranked 30th in pressure rate and 14th in sacks per dropback. The Seahawks entered Sunday riding a three-game winning streak in which the offense averaged 29.3 points. But the performance against the Bucs served as a reminder that it's difficult to gauge what the offensive line is going to look like on any given week. Going forward, center Justin Britt, who has been the team's best lineman, is expected to return from an ankle injury in Week 13. But the Seahawks have decisions to make at the tackle spots. Do they let Fant work through his issues or sit him for Bradley Sowell? On the right side, do they go with Sowell or Garry Gilliam? One reason why Carroll is probably annoyed by the offensive line questions is that these issues should ideally be worked out in September or October, not December.

It is used all the time. And Any prosecutor who refuses to do so is wasting taxpayer dollars to prosecute. Sharper agreed to accept guilt and be sentenced to two decades in prison. Why would a prosecutor deny that for a chance that Sharper goes free? It guarantees conviction. It guarantees a guy goes to jail that should. And there is no guarantee that if he's convicted that he would be sentenced to any more time... What are sentencing guidlines for rape in the States he accepted guilt? Maybe the got close to the max he could have been put away for?

No, a prosecutor who takes a plea deal for serial rapist when he has convicting evidence on him shouldn't be a prosecutor Second, there is no REQUIREMENT that a prosecutor has to offer a plea so you were misleading people with your posts

Trekgeekscott -> RE: Around the NFL (News) - 2013 Season (12/2/2016 12:24:20 PM)
Fine, there is no requirement. But good prosecutors don't ignore the possibility of putting guys away on a guarantee, saving the court time, the prosecutor's office time and money, the victims are spared having to testify among other things. If you have a slam dunk case a good lawyer isn't going to take that to trial if they can help it. The plea it out because it is good for your conviction stats and you hardly have to work by comparison. Trial is risky. If you refuse to offer a plea to a guy that you have a slam dunk case on, you are a fool. You could easily put that guy away for two decades and spare the victims the psycholocgical stress, the court time and the DA's office money...well makes perfect sense to offer a plea bargain deal. There isn't a good prosecutor in this country that wouldn't have made a plea deal if the defense was willing, especially if they had a slam dunk case. The only ones that wouldn't are looking for the big show trial to forward their political career...in which case they are doing it for all the wrong reasons. I would love for Sharper to serve a longer sentence. hell I even posted I'd be fine if they castrated him (although that would be considered unconstitutional as cruel and unusual punishment). All I'm saying is that he can plea bargain and this case can, now that he's sentenced, go away for a long time.

JC2015 -> RE: Around the NFL (News) - 2013 Season (12/2/2016 1:14:39 PM)
No, good prosecutors - when they have a slam dunk case against a violent offender - put him away for life quote: There isn't a good prosecutor in this country that wouldn't have made a plea deal if the defense was willing, especially if they had a slam dunk case. You are way off base and just making stuff up now A prosecutor who was tough on crime would never bargain this case Prosecutors who plea bargain cases like this are a big part of the PROBLEM That MF should never EVER see the light of day I don't give a damn if it costs more taxpayer dollars - that is why we employ them!

"Hey, I know it was 1st degree murder, buuuuuut I'd just as soon plea to say... misdemeanor involuntary manslaughter, time served. Yeah, sure, that's the ticket!" Pretty sure we're all aware that plea-bargaining does exist, and is constitutional. Defendants have no inherent right to it though, it is a right bestowed upon them by the prosecutor.
