    Does Defense still win championships?

    Good point. Not just beat them, but beat them like a drum and physically beat up on the Huskies.

    Carroll Out As Head Coach

    You may be correct about the rivalry-speak statement. You are also correct with the thinking that, as a 49er fan, I vastly enjoyed the way Kyle Shanahan just stuck it to the Seahawks over the past two seasons. 5-0. Smells great, baby. At the same time, AROS, I think you would be the first to...

    Carroll Out As Head Coach

    Probably because there are a number of Seahawks.net members who post on the 49ER board. The Seattle Seahawks thread on the 49er Webzone, established in 2016, has blown past 1,000 pages. Many of those pages come from Seahawks.net members who have come to gloat, cast shame or simply have a good...

    Carroll Out As Head Coach

    You and I will have to agree to disagree. Respectfully of course. Harbaugh was a lame duck coach in his final year. Everyone knew it. The team reacted to it. That isn't Harbaugh's fault. It also wasn't Harbaugh's fault that a massive number of those players chose to retire following Harbaugh's...

    Carroll Out As Head Coach

    Saving grace? You mean CAPTAIN BLIGH is now in charge? You call that "saving grace?" Really? Carroll HIRED the guy. Pete Carroll gave the unknown Schneider his shot back when Paul Allen put this all together. But now it appears that Schneider has been whispering sweet nothings to sister Jody...

    Seahawks new head coach next year...

    Perhaps this is the next big announcement. A sale is coming?

    Carroll Out As Head Coach

    Agreed. This is what 49er fans prayed for in 2005, and it's exactly what they got when the team brought in Mike Nolan. What followed is eight years of pure HADES. Not one winning season. Not one playoff berth. We got three seasons of redemption with Harbaugh, but got sent right back to Purgatory...

    Most Thrilling and Satisfying Win of the Year

    Congrats Hawks fans. 49er fans love you to death at the moment!

    Draft A Potential Franchise QB In April

    OK. This is where I agree to disagree. Do the Seahawks need to draft a QB? YES THEY DO. Should they waste a first round pick on that QB? NO THEY SHOULD NOT. Was Russell Wilson a first round pick? He was not. How about the KING of Super Bowl Championships, Tom Brady? He was a fifth round, throw...

    Aros' Fearless Prediction Thread (vs Eagles)

    I'm with Aros on this one. Pete Carroll is one heck of a coach, and he will have this team ready to rumble. Plus, the Seahawks are not out of the playoff picture, not by a longshot. They will make it as a wild card entry of course, and that may earn them a rematch with San Francisco down the...

    Aros' Fearless Prediction Thread (vs 49ers)

    It was a thing of beauty, I must admit. It wasn’t just payback for what took place nine years ago in SF. The 49ers really rubbed this one in. I hope every Seahawk diehard saw it. I can tell you, from experience, that it is a horrible nightmare that does not fade over time. It will stay with...

    Poll is it really as bad as it looked or just a bump in the road

    With all due respect (you are the Admin after all), I will admit that you might be correct. But, I honestly do not see it. Most backup QB's are backups for a reason. Not all of them. But, for a lot of them, there's a reason why they sat on the bench. As a 49er fan I do not like this. I miss...

    Pete needs to be fired immediately

    Horrible take. PC doesn't select the players he has been given. He doesn't have much in the way of talent to work with. He's been given the rather impossible task to somehow make a career backup QB look and play like Russell Wilson. That's not happening. I don't know who made the decision to...

    Poll is it really as bad as it looked or just a bump in the road

    Tough year for the Seahawks. Bad defense. Bad QB. No real threats on offense other than a decent WR corps. But who is going to consistently get the ball to them? Geno Smith? A career backup? I don't think so.

    Aros' Fearless Prediction Thread (@ Lions)

    Lions 30 Seahawks 10 I don't see a win on the Seahawks schedule until late October. The defense looks horrible.

    Do you want Geno next season?

    Yes, I do realize that. I also realize that any high pick can be a bust. And, as a 49ers fan, I'm hoping and PRAYING that the Seahawks pick the wrong guy. I believe Seahawks fans would feel the same way about the 49ers, in hoping that Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch blow or whiff on every pick they...

    Do you want Geno next season?

    You are mentioning all the first round picks that turned out to be as good as advertised. Where's the list of first rounders that flopped? How about names like Todd Blackledge (7th pick in the 1983 draft)? There are others. Joey Harrington, Tim Couch, Vince Young and Matt Leinart. Oh, here's one...

    Game was good

    I hope you're right. Purdy reminds me very much of a young Joe Montana. I was 18 when Joe won his first with the 49ers. I'm 59 now. It's been a long, long time. But there are things with Purdy that I saw with Montana (and Russell Wilson to be completely honest). It's that ability to spot the...

    Do you want Geno next season?

    I am a 49er fan. Diehard. I wanted all of you to know. I voted YES in this poll. Know why? Because the 49ers will beat the Seahawks like a DRUM for years to come with Geno Smith at QB. Guaranteed. Geno is just good enough to get you beat. All Seahawk fans saw what Geno Smith offers. When the...

    It's not too late

    This is a good response. As a 49er fan, I agree. It also doesn't work. You can draft well without having a bunch of high draft picks. Look at the 49ers. They had no #1 pick in the 2022 draft. Did it matter? Nope. Case in point, the 49ers drafted DL Drake Jackson in the 2nd Round. He's now part...
