This one stings - heck of a second half and fourth quarter by the Hawks, but they couldn’t get a yard on 4th down in OT to extend their drive and the game.

Definitely missed Kam as much as I hoped it wouldn’t be as big of a factor as it was. Earl Thomas led the defense with 9 tackles - which is usually a bad sign when your Free Safety leads a game in tackles.

Cary Williams with a strip, recovery and return for a TD was definitely a highlight as well as the fact that Jimmy Graham catches almost everything that is thrown his way.

It won’t get any easier with a trip to Green Bay next week, but I trust the Hawks will learn what they can from this first game and move forward.
