Sorry, but I don't view the world through Blue and Green glasses and I've been a fan since 76'
We have a Super Bowl defense and a top 5 draft pick offense. That's reality.
Yep. Nothing worse than fans throwing around labels and trying to compare fandom worthiness.
Why is critical analysis not accepted? Why is only rah rah, drooling fanboy stuff appreciated?
The truth hurts. We all look at the games differently. If you can't identify the fatal flaws on this team, well... I can't help you. All the unicorns and sunshine posts won't make it better.
You can be a die hard and still call a spade a spade. I have been a fan for 40 years, the highs and lows. Nothing will change that; but I am allowed to be down when we see the same problems over and over again.
I agree with FlyingGreg. These are my sentiments almost exactly. I know the offense can be a lot better with the talent there (especially in the skill areas). It's just a certain position group bringing the team down and that area has not improved year over year. They continue to make the same mistakes over and over again. Is it ignorance and stubbornness....who knows. It's one of the main reasons why the Seahawks only put 10-12 points on teams they should scoring at least 30 on. Yes, this is profootball and it may change week to week but for the most part consistently elite teams win 12+ games each year. The Seahawks used to do that (from 2012-2014). Now they are just a 10 win and division round playoffs exit team (past 2 years). The trend so far this season seems very similar to last season. That was a 10 win season. As a fan since 1977, I expect more from this team.
well Hell to the yeah..... Screw the post trying to be upbeat about the Seahawks :roll:
Ain't no one trying to take away some of ya's Debbie-Downer mood, if that's what floats yer boat have at it.
Oh, and to add, we ARE getting more than the 1977 Seahawks team...BY A LONG SHOT.
If comparing this team to 1977 Seahawks is your metric in being better.....then the bar is quite low. Is this team equal to the team in 2012-14....it's definitely not. That's where the bar should be. Each to their own. If you can't handle valid criticism of the team, that's your problem. Furthermore, the last I checked no one here needs your approval on what they should post and where they should post it.
