It's a very simple answer.
It's who they played. They should have beaten the Rams they lost because of a missed FG.
The SF 49ers are destroying EVERYBODY. Nobody is hanging in there with the 49ers.
The Dallas Cowboys are destroying EVERYBODY. nobody is hanging in there with them as apparent to their blow out victory against the Eagles.
So that's three games against opponents that are just superior teams than the Seahawks.
EVERYBODY knows that the Niners and Cowboys are the best teams in the league but yet there is this expectation that the Seahawks should beat these teams, and if they don't then obviously their needs to be a coaching change? I mean how realistic is that?
The Seahawks are in the second year of a rebuild in which this year they have had so many injuries... the O line has had 10 different combinations of players this year. Geno Smith has been hurt with a bad arm the first time they played the Niners with Walker out that first game.
The second game they lost with out their starting QB and walker playing hurt.
Would you expect the niners to win without Purdy and McCaffery out or playing hurt Against the best team in the league? I think not.
Ultimately what the fan base is expecting from the Seahawks is for Pete Carroll to coach up players that are NOT as good as the rosters of the best teams in the league, and then to beat the best teams in the league. And when they can't live up to that expectation then the coach MUST be fired.
How realistic is that? It's NOT REALISTIC AT ALL.
This is the reason they have this skid.
