My brother is a Vikings fan, he just sent me a text...
'Best defense in the NFL just got better! It doesn't seem fair.'
So next year instead of Dynasty beards...We all grow mullets?
Oh gawd, you want me to be one of those balding guys with a mullet? :34853_doh:
I'll get back to you on that. 8)

Woo hoo! assuming we didn't overspend. Considering he left and had to come back and then signed, I think you all will see that as usual JS had a plan and stuck to it. I said 6 per on another thread and I'm staying with that.



And Rob, I'm just gonna say "NO WAY" on the whole mullet idea. Sorry.

The weirdest thing about Allen getting sacks was that he really didn't have a great secondary to give him a lot of time.

And while the Viking line was good in places, it wasn't a consistent force.

Based on those two factors, how did he get 10+ sacks at all?

Was he just never doubled?

It seems strange that you could get that kind of production while other parts of the team weren't really helping.

Maybe someone can look at some of his games last year and see, but unless the #s are completely ridiculous it might be a really good fit for us.

He's that good

Let's see... Darrell Bevell, T Jack, Sid Rice, Heath Farwell, D Coleman, Percy Harvin, Jared Allen..
Am I missing any former Vikings who may wind up on this Hawks team.

Damn, Avril, Bennett, Allen and (Hill, Williams, Scruggs or someone else). Nighty night qb's. J and P should be arrested for larceny. If I were Golden Tate I would be pissed to having to leave for Detroit.
Why would Tate be pissed. His QB no longer has to face Allen twice a year.

True, but he better prey his team doesn't win the wild card and have to travel to Seattle anytime soon.

One of the guys on Bob and Groz just scolded everyone for freaking out because Werder did not say that he actually signed

I read that he has an agreement and could sign this afternoon. He's agreed to be a Seahawk and will sign once the legal stuff is written out

Allen has not reached an agreement yet;

Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 1m
Jared Allen’s agent Ken Harris says his client is visiting the #Seahawks, but says “that’s it for now.” And so we wait.

Will he sometime today? Probably, but thread title is incorrect at this moment.

I knew it:

Shefter may have been a little quick on his interpretation of Werner's tweet. Werner just said they were in final stages, but he hasn't agreed yet.

Can we not bring up Hutch, that depresses me to this day. He and Walt were my favorite players of that era... Hutch should have had a touchdown against Green Bay :p

Yup, sounds like Adam jumped the gun. That's frustrating.

Lotta excitement for nothing. However it seems like almost every direction points to him signing with us now. I'd be very surprised he didn't, there's been really no other possible suitors named.

This is all fantastic I guess but what does this say about Mayowa, Hill, Williams and Scruggs?? I really want to see what Scruggs and Mayowa can do...
They will be in the rotation with everyone else. What makes it such a good signing is that Allen will be rested. That is just ridiculous to ponder.
I was just gonna post this. Rotation and competition. Love it!

That's basically what every agent has said this off-season 30 minutes before the numbers are released.

Kirwan on NFL Radio just said that he just talked to a friend in Seattle's FO (that was not Carroll) and was told that there was no agreement in place yet.
