Earlier there was a thread about all-time Seahawk Killers. I think Fitz should be on that list already.
I just hope they lose this guy to FA or something after 2011 (I think that's when his extension is up).
That being said -- the consistent theme this year is that teams are playing a ton of "drop 7, rush 4, keep everything in front of you" defense against the Cards
This one is actually interesting and might have some outlandish merit. Since the cards passing game is quick-hitting, it relies heavily on timing and if Fitz can't get off the line he won't get many looks.Why not say to hell with it, lets take another tact. Remove a S and put in another Lb whose sole job at the start of every play is to beat on Fitzgerald for 5 yards. Also, on the Cards first possesion, invest a couple roughing calls and hammer Warner.
So long as the blitz isn't coming from Fitz's side, it might take a lot of looks away from him. Warner's first look on a blitz is going to be right at it.First-- I wish I had a dollar for every message board post by the other team along the lines of: "you stop those WRs by putting Warner on his back". Every week its the same.

But I wonder if teams have ever thought about putting their best blocker in space out there--a jam is really just a block. Maybe a fullback? I'm only half kidding.
Yeah, that's the thing--no matter what teams do to shut down fitz, it opens something else up.Meanwhile Ben Patrick has 8 catches for 105 yards and 2 TDs.

That's not my point. My point is selling out with one player on the jam -- no matter what position that player fills on the roster -- and having a coverage guy over the top.Honestly... you don't really think a linebacker will be able to keep Fitz from getting off the line, do you?? I would LOVE to see the Hags stick a LB on Fitz!!! Bring it on!!!
Most of the so-called "experts" out there would say no, but I can't think of ANYONE on the NFL that I would rather have. Not only is he a HOF receiver, but he is a team player & has tremendous work ethic & character. I wouldn't trade him for anyone, at any position & that includes AP.Fitz really is the best WR in the NFL these days!
My wife tells me that I have more love for Fitz than one man should have for another
