The biggest story out of Seattle right now has little to do with on-the-field activities.

It’s the story about a terrorist threat to pro football facilities this weekend. All the Seattle-area papers looked at it, examined how real it might be and whether such things will ever stop (no, says Dave Boling. The bottom line is authorities are saying the threat isn’t anything to worry about.

So back to the field, where kicker Josh Brown has shown his worth to the Hawks time and time again, including last Sunday’s game-winning kick.

Of course, we’re still not off the Steve-Hutchinson-is-returning-to-town bandwagon, with a Jerry Brewer column, an Everett piece and a P-I story.

Art Thiel examines the defense’s speed and wonders if it has enough while Mike Sando does the same with the shotgun formation, which is now in the Hawks’ repertoire.
