    Sam Howell is Geno's Backup!!

    I don't understand why people are crapping on this trade. We need a backup QB with some upside, and we also need to draft a lot of new players, and this trade takes care of the QB without losing any draft picks. Having a backup with a year of experience as a starter is a bonus. Great job by...

    Appears many are bailing

    Yeah, we rarely played well against good teams these last few years, which is why I never got excited about fighting for the last wild card. If you're fighting for the last wild card spot you're really not even close to surviving the gauntlet and winning the Lombardi. I'm not worried at all...

    Hawks agree to terms with Williams (3y, $21.5m per)

    Huh? Giving him over $20m per year doesn't make the trade any better. I would still much prefer we never traded for him.

    Wagner not coming back

    Moving on from Wagner is the correct move for the Hawks. It also gives Bobby a chance to either take the highest money offer for one last payday, or take a lesser deal to be on a super bowl contender. Being a seahawk automatically means less name recognition among football fans, but Wagner...

    Seahawks shopping cart

    I don't think we need more than this upcoming season to transition. I don't expect much in 2024, but they'll have 2 off-seasons by the time the 25 season starts.

    Seahawks shopping cart

    We had 2 of the 10 highest paid Safeties last year. We probably had the most overpaid DB group in the entire NFL. Schneider needs to wake up and stop blowing a fortune on that group.

    MacDonald doesn’t commit to Geno as starter

    This is much ado about nothing. The Seahawks *might* draft a QB to compete with Geno, so there isn't a reason to just declare him the starter. If the Hawks are unable to land anyone in the draft or FA or trade who could legitimately compete with Geno then he is the de facto starter. I don't...

    Schneider on Jamal Adams

    Schneider is an absolute fool/tool if he can't see that the trade was bad from day 1, and he was grossly overpaid. Hell, the NFL as a whole is de-valuing the safety position, which makes Adams' contract even more ridiculous. Remember when teams were giving big contracts to veteran RBs on a...

    It will be interesting to see if our DB group really will improve via addition by subtraction. It was pretty clear that our coverage team was garbage last year, especially when Adams was on the field. Coverage has to work as a unit, and ours was garbage.

    Eskridge

    Yep. Cheap players under contract are typically kept around so they can compete for a spot. Any shine he had has worn off, and any "potential" at this point is moot. He either outright wins a spot or he's gone

    Are we tanking or not?

    Addition by subtraction. You need to give the first time head coach a year to reshape the roster before you even think of making any "win now" moves. We aren't tanking but we also aren't trying to build the team in FA. The draft is where it's at, and we'll add necessary pieces after

    Fans attending dolphins chiefs game need amputations now

    It's a damn shame that some people will have life-long injuries from attending a game. People can talk about the "energy" all they want, there's no better place to watch a football game than at home

    Jamal, Quandre & Dissly Released!!!

    It's good to see the Hawks making the obvious necessary moves to start the busy part of the off-season. None of the players released should've been brought back, and now we have a much clearer salary cap and depth chart situation.

    Where did Pete go wrong?

    Stubborn and stuck in his ways, was never a disciplinarian, lacked quality depth to hold starters accountable, inability to adjust midgame, "win forever" became "win 8-9 games at the expense of the future" and the future eventually caught up with him.

    The Macdonald Defensive System

    I felt we should go offense with our new coach, but the only acceptable approach to a defensive coach is one who is younger, smart, and not afraid to be different, so in that regard the Hawks made a good choice. IMO the worst thing we could've done is gone with a retread in his 50s who would...

    I didn’t see Pete

    My take on the "advisor role" is that the Hawks are shrewdly moving on in a way that could get them to avoid paying Pete all of the rest of his money. By putting him in an advisor role they are keeping him on the payroll and honoring his contract while simultaneously preventing him from doing...

    Holmgren to Schneider - "Hire an offensive coach!"

    Defensive coaches haven't been too successful stopping the high-flying offenses, and at this point if a team is going with a defensive-minded coach then it better already have its starting QB, which we don't. If nothing else we could use an offensive coach to help us get our QBOTF and if we...

    Stroud

    I hadn't seen him play for the Texans yet, but I was extremely impressed with his poise and the touch on his passes. He really looked like a veteran out there.

    Geno one reason for PC got fired?

    Passing a lot =/= having a good QB. Besides, when our RBs are failing to get the ball moving you are kind of forced to pass.

    Geno one reason for PC got fired?

    It isn't just "last draft". Pete refused to draft any QB after Russell. Go look at every draft since Wilson and you'll see a long list of QBs we could've gotten. Teams usually draft a QB as leverage when their star QB is coming up on a new contract. The Hawks didn't do that. Teams usually draft...
