NFL
Seahawks looking for another second-half surge
By TIM BOOTH
Associated Press
SEATTLE — When the
calendar turns to November, Pete
Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks
get going.
In each of the past five seasons,
the Seahawks have posted a
winning record once November
arrives. Since 2012 when Russell
Wilson landed in Seattle, the
Seahawks are a combined 28-6
over the final two months of the
regular season.
With that history, the Seahawks
are looking to start another second-
half run when they host the Buffalo
Bills on Monday night.
“I count on it now. I count on us
improving and playing better as we
get down the stretch and the closer
we get to the finish the better we
want to play,” Carroll said. “That’s
kind of how we’ve constructed our
mentality.”
Seattle is in the unfamiliar situ-
ation of going two straight weeks
without a win after a tie that felt
like a loss two weeks ago, followed
by last week’s loss at New Orleans.
The previous time Seattle went
three straight games without a win
was the 2011 season — also the
most recent time the Seahawks
didn’t make the playoffs.
TIGERSCOTS:
Continued from 1B
finals in Friday night’s final match.
The Bulldogs had gone 3-0 against
the TigerScots in Columbia Basin
Conference play this season, and
had swept them less than two weeks
ago in the district championship.
The TigerScots didn’t flinch in
their fourth meeting, and rallied to
win in five. After winning the first
two 25-23, 25-14, Weston-McEwen
was unable to keep its momentum
as Culver stormed back for wins of
25-14, 25-13. But the TigerScots
came back strong in the fifth set to
win 15-10 and earn the program’s
fifth state championship berth. The
TigerScots are 2-2 in championships
with their last title coming in 2010.
They will play No. 3 Imbler at
8:30 p.m. Imbler beat No. 2 Grant
Union in four sets 25-23, 25-21,
14-25, 27-25. It’s the first time
Imbler will play for the 2A title,
but the Panthers have won three 1A
state championships with their most
recent in 2009.
Revenge could be a motivator
once again for the TigerScots. The
meeting will be the fourth of the
season between the two eastern
Oregon teams, and Imbler has won
all three.
No. 11 ADRIAN 3, No. 3
ARLINGTON 2 — In the 1A
bracket, the Adrian Antelopes
scored their second straight upset
of the state playoffs by defeating
the Arlington Honkers in five sets
25-14, 20-25, 27-25, 21-25, 15-8.
Adrian had defeated No. 6
Powder Valley to make it to the
final site, and handed the streaking
Honkers a loss for only the second
time this season.
Arlington will now regroup for
its consolation game against No.
7 Crane, which will start at 8 a.m.
today.

Seattle Seahawks free safety Earl Thomas (29) returns a fumble for
a touchdown in the first half of an NFL football game against the
New Orleans Saints in New Orleans, Sunday, Oct. 30, 2016.
But this matchup — the first time
Buffalo is traveling to Seattle since
2004 — has even more importance
for the Bills. Having dropped two
straight after a promising 4-2 start,
including last week’s home loss to
New England, the Bills don’t have
much leeway left.
“It’s definitely a big road game
for us and just a big game for the
season,” Buffalo quarterback Tyrod
Taylor said. “Guys are definitely
excited for the opportunity to go
out there and show what we could
do, and showcase it in front of the
world.”
Buffalo may get running back
LeSean McCoy back after missing
last week’s game with a hamstring
injury, but the Bills could be
without standout defensive tackle
Marcel Darius after suffering a
groin injury against New England.
Here’s what else to watch:
GROUND FORCE: Buffalo’s
run game has been the key to its
offensive success this season.
In their four victories, the Bills
have rushed for 847 yards, thanks
largely to the running of McCoy. In
the four losses, the Bills have run
for only 385 total yards.
Surprisingly, this may be a
week for the Bills to get their run
game going. Seattle has allowed
a 100-yard rusher in two straight
games and three of the past five.
The Seahawks had gone 24 straight
games without allowing a 100-yard
rusher until Carlos Hyde reached
that mark in Week 3.
“I think you’ve got to be patient
with our running game because like
we say, that team is very athletic,”
Ryan said.
WATCH
THE
FLAGS:
Seattle was penalized 11 times
last week against New Orleans.
But the Seahawks seemed most
upset about a pair of non-calls on
New Orleans for possible offensive
pass interference that led to a pair
of key receptions, one of them a
touchdown.
Seattle cornerback Richard
Sherman said the league told the
team both of those plays should
have been penalties.
“We probably lead the league
in NFL apologies the next day,”
Sherman said.
HE’S BACK: Buffalo has
suffered so many injuries at wide
receiver, it was forced to bring
Percy Harvin out of retirement
earlier this week.
And just in time to possibly face
one of his former teams.
“I’m self-motivated regardless
of what team it is and who I’m
playing against,” Harvin said. “I
just want to be the best I can be
and play at the level I know I can.
So, playing a team doesn’t really
matter to me.
Harvin had an eventful 1½
seasons with Seattle that included
hip surgery, internal conflicts with
teammates, a memorable kickoff
return touchdown in the Super
Bowl and ultimately a stunning
midseason trade to the New York
Jets when it was clear Harvin was
being more divisive than helpful.
Harvin played in five games
last season for Buffalo and had
19 catches for 218 yards and one
touchdown.
TIGERS: Grogan rushes for game-high 223 yards
Continued from 1B
team on (our backs) so we just
had to step up,” Barnes said. “We
didn’t drive the blocks as much as
we could’ve we tried a lot more
shield blocks instead, but we prac-
ticed that all week and just came
out and got it done.”
“They did great,” Stanfield
senior Dylan Grogan said of the
offensive line. “We knew when
we were watching film and saw
the (big guys) we just thought
‘Well, we’ll have to do the best
we can’ and those guys did it.
The holes were huge for us to run
through and it was nice.”
Grogan benefited the most
from the blocking performance,
as the quarterback ran for a team-
high 223 yards on 16 carries and
two touchdowns on the ground,
and also threw for 187 yards and
two touchdowns through the air.
Running back Thyler Monkus
also followed his blockers well,
and ran for 166 yards on 16
carries with a pair of touchdowns
as well.
Stanfield wasted no time in
the game to show their offensive
prowess, as on the Tigers second
play from scrimmage Grogan
took the snap and ran to the
right, straight through the Cobra
defense and down the sideline for
a 40 yard gain. And on the next
offensive play, Monkus took a
sweeping handoff to the left side
of the field before making his cut
right through the defense and then
sprinted 30 yards for the touch-
down to give the Tigers a 6-0 lead
with just 28 seconds expired off
the game clock.
Monkus added his second
touchdown on Stanfield’s next
drive, when he took a sweeping

55-14 win against Central Linn on Friday in Stanfield.
handoff to the right side of the
field, broke through a few arm
tackles and then bounced back to
his left to find the crease and sped
29 yards for the touchdown and
the 12-0 Tiger lead.
Central Linn responded to
the score with one of its few
successful offensive drives in the
game, as a drive that started at its
own 37 quickly advanced down
inside the Stanfield five. And with
a little more than five minutes
remaining in the first quarter the
Cobras leaned on their 335-pound
fullback Andre Holmes who
barreled his way into the end zone
to cut the lead to 12-7.
Holmes was Central Linn’s
second leading rusher in the
game, carrying the ball 15 times
for 61 yards and a score. Grogan,
who also plays linebacker for the
Tigers, said it was not always
easy to tackle Holmes.
“Oh it was hard to get him. It
wasn’t just one person it had to be
a group and you had to go low,”
Grogan said. “I hit him hard a
couple times and he still didn’t go
down. He’s a real big boy.”
But after the score the Tigers
quickly grabbed the momentum
back as a few quick plays put
Stanfield back in Cobra territory.
Facing a 2nd-and-3 from the 38,
Grogan took the snap and a quick
three-step drop and fired the ball
toward receiver Brody Woods,
who caught the ball on a slant
route and outran the defense up
the middle for the touchdown and
a 20-7 lead. Grogan said that was
the biggest drive of the game for
the Tigers.
“It changed the momentum
back because they kind of had it
after getting the score,” he said.
The Tigers prettiest touch-
down of the game came midway
through the second quarter still
leading 20-7. Facing a 3rd-and-5
from its own 40, Grogan again
took the snap and dropped into a
play-action pass, and then cocked
back his arm and fired a rocket
down the field to find a streaking
Justin Shelby all alone behind
the Cobra defense for a 60-yard
touchdown to put Stanfield up
28-7.
“I saw (Justin) and didn’t see
anyone around him so I just kind
of threw it up and put it in a spot
where he could get to it,” Grogan
said.
The pass at the time seemed
like the final nail in the coffin
from the Cobras, who just
couldn’t consistently put drives
together against the stingy
Stanfield defense. Running back
Braden Nightengale scored the
Cobras only other touchdown of
the game on a 90-yard run in the
third quarter.
The win moves Stanfield to
the quarterfinals where it will
play the winner of today’s game
between No. 7 Lost River and No.
10 Santiam.
“This win gives us confi-
dence,” Barnes said. “We were
a little bit nervous coming into
this game, (Central Linn) was
far better than a 3-6 team but this
gives us momentum we need to
carry into the next round.”
