    Aros' Fearless Prediction Thread (@ Rams)

    I’m inclined to agree that on defense - Stafford gets the ball out in or under 2 seconds to those short and intermediate in-breaking routes, meshes and drag routes, shredding Carrol’s soft zone D. I also believe that Geno will be able to respond more effectively if we get Charbonnet and...

    Bengals or Bungles?

    Joe Burrow performs very well under pressure, so let’s hope that the unique Jamal Adams and Witherspoon type of pressure is especially disruptive and destroys Burrow’s rhythm.

    Spoon vs Chase

    Not only is Chase moved around a lot - we are usually in a cover 3 and nobody is particularly shadowing Chase who will find those honey holes in 2 seconds at a pop. It’s essentially their bread and butter “running game” equivalent for Joe Burrow. Let Jamal Adams be a disruptive force against...

    Oregon @ Washington

    The Husky fans can be a big help on Montlake - but this will test Penix’s management of the game where he will need to check down more often than he is used to. Establishing the run will be a plus. Big plays on defense seriously needed!

    Intermediate In-breaking Routes and Hawks D

    The intermediate in-breaking routes will continue to impact Seattle’s zone defense which is sort of tolerable between the 20s. The challenge for the Seahawks D is to breakup those in-breaking routes in the red zone instead of bending and then breaking.

    Third Downs Both Sides

    For the next series of games, it is time to shore-up the third down percentage on both sides of the ball. On paper, the restored, refurbished O-line should provide a few more progression work-throughs for Smith, which bodes well for JSN, Charbonnet and Walker. The presence of Witherspoon in...

    Why Not Us?

    Underrated Seahawks play Seahawks football. Did wonders for them last year. Add to that confidence and swagger and there’s a glorious blue and green cocktail to erupt all over the 2023 NFC West.

    Gotel ain’t bad

    He exceeded expectations and looked the part today. Here’s to hoping that he becomes part of the rotation, if not a practice squad project at the very least.

    Mike Morris will play DT 3

    The two man fronts (in certain situations) were a disaster - so something needs fixing.

    Personal Draft grades

    A- just because the front 7 needed a little more attention. The context for the 2023 draft, however, is that there was a dearth of ILBs and interior defensive line players that fit the Seahawks criteria in the higher rounds. The 2023 Seahawks draft will be remembered for “toughness” across the...

    The pick is IN! #5

    Best Seahawky pick available at 5 and it makes perfect LoB II sense

    ESPN….lol

    I first visited Seahawks.Net in 1998 when the Jets bumped us out of the playoffs because of the helmet TD by the Jets. It was that game that moved the NFL to embrace instant replay for good. Ironically, a last Seahawks game of the season’s officiating forces the NFL to deal with short-comings...

    Aros' Fearless Playoff Prediction Thread (@ 49ers)

    Highs in the low 50s and 80 percent chance of rain. Sounds just like Seattle’s kind of playoff game. Winning this game is so Pete Carroll, So Pete Carroll! Nothing to lose and everything to gain. Hawks have some fun. Seahawks 23 - 49ers 20

    Start Drew Lock for remainder?

    I have no problem putting Lock in when Geno is injured. That is the only scenario where starting Lock instead of Geno makes any sense.

    Aros' Fearless Prediction Thread (@ Chiefs)

    To finish this season over .500 would be fantastic, especially if Geno Smith is the reason. Next year - the defense better be the reason . . .

    Were We Asking Too Much of 2022 Hawks D?

    Training Camp generated a sense of reassurance that our 2022 Seahawks Defense would be upgraded, if not a remarkable improvement for the season ahead. Most of us expected a “developing team” measure of success for the team overall. And, to be fair - we had those 4 solid weeks of defensive...

    It’s Time to Hear from Eskridge and Collier

    Yeah Collier has an unique opportunity to make a contribution to the DL and I’m disappointed until I see more from him. The interior guys in particular are good for now, but not getting any younger.

    Oh The Humanity! A Seahawk Tragedy!

    Another reason the Super Bowl XLIX goal line call was a bad call is because it is a low percentage call on multiple levels. Since Belichick had rehearsed a defensive response to that very call means that the call itself was super predictable. People deny that Butler made an outstanding...

    3rd WR

    A high percentage of snaps go to 12 and 13 personnel groupings because Carroll is characteristically a run-first offense. In one sense, the targeted TE becomes the third WR. In 11, having three WRs is optimal for our run first offense because it provides Geno with sound options in play-action...
