Golden Nuggets: Those penalties hurt..

G'morning. That was a rather.. boring Thursday night game, but oh well. Was anybody expecting it to be better? I regret not watching the Oregon game, but what are ya gonna do? Football is football I suppose. Anyway, moving on from that I have a good amount of links for you again today. We've got some previews and some long looks at the Seahawks. I don't know how I feel about this game, I'm a little bit nervous because nobody really knows how the Seahawks are going to play and well... nobody knows how the San Francisco 49ers are going to play either, you know? It could go either way but I'm looking for the 49ers to keep the hope alive and put a stomping on them, in all modesty. Still, I've got some other articles, another piece about Ahmad Brooks for some reason and even more about the spread offense. I haven't read any of 'em yet, but here you go. Enjoy your links folks. Or at least, you better enjoy them. Or else.

OC Jimmy Raye says the "spread" offense is a misnomer. (MercuryNews.com)

Michael Crabtree and Josh Morgan both bring stability to the WR position. (Yahoo.com)
