    Trade thought

    Geno Smith made the pro bowl 2 straight years and there would be a ton of dead money the Seahawks absorb (making it cheap for another team to acquire him). Seahawks gave up a 2nd for Lenny with 1 year left at DT.. QB is obviously the most important position and with all the dead money, it's...

    Trade thought

    I feel like your most likely scenario would be Geno to Pittsburgh for Pitt 2 (51) and a later pick.

    Trade thought

    The Bears would never draft a player #1 and then bench him. The fans would riot the GM office.

    Geno, or no Geno?

    The reason I brought up Mahomes is because of the things he does so well, not necessarily because Geno should be compared to him. I covet a skill set where they process well, convert 3rd downs with their legs, and can make enough good throws to make a defense honest. You could just as easily...

    Geno, or no Geno?

    Think about Geno in terms of that SB game we just watched vs. SF compared to Patrick Mahomes (granted tough to compare to the greatest first few seasons ever but bear with me). Geno was horrible against 3-4 defenses with disguised blitzes (SF/BAL). Both of them have rifle arms and can make all...

    It’s Official: Hawks Hire Macdonald For HC

    Hiring Grubb another result of what I was trying to convey. Not sure you took it the right way given your response but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

    Chip Kelly OC talk again

    The only knock on hiring a DC specialized head coach was the continuity with the QB once the offense has success. However, it would be hard to believe an NFL GM/Owner would give Chip another shot as HC.. So, it could be a really nice hire from the perspective as well.

    It’s Official: Hawks Hire Macdonald For HC

    Here's the thing I'm most excited about (and this is slightly difficult to articulate): Mike MacDonald is a critical thinking genius. This genius has been revealed at whatever he has set his mind to do (school, football, etc). As of right now, we have seen this genius manifest as a defensive...

    Pete can and will build a contender again

    The Seahawks went 1-2 under Geno Smith a below average backup QB in this league. The two losses were playoff teams that they lost by a combined 6 points. Both games were in reach to win in the final minutes. Under 13 games with Russ, we've beat 2 playoff teams. You don't think that with an...

    Looks like DK has a nick name now..

    I prefer my nickname for him which is PacMan based upon his combine chart (<

    4th and 10 deep ball to Metcalf.

    It's easier for a WR to adjust to an under thrown ball.. it also brings into play pass interference... not something you want to do a lot, but on 4th down it increases the chances of extending the drive.

    What was Carson thinking???

    I'm pretty sure that the 2 minute warning was going to be reached regardless of going out of bounds too. Could have turned up and if he got pushed out of bounds it wouldn't have been the end of the world. He could have gotten 8-10 yards on 1st down instead of a 4-5.

    So What Do We Do About This Defense?

    Yep. Hope the Falcons fire Quinn. I don't know about Quinn, he sure hasn't done much with that squad on D. The solution is of course improving the pass rush but that costs-a-lotta to get guys who can make a difference and who are healthy and can stay healthy.
