Well all you have to do is go back through this thread so see the sentiment before:
It was all next man up, he isn't going to matter type stuff. We will be fine without him.
Now it appears he was very very important.
Now everyone changes the tune. Now they are angry at him because they know the defense is SCREWED without him. And the offense isn't good enough to carry this team, not even close.
Now the Seahawks have a choice, they can fix the problem and get one or two more years out of Kam before they cannot afford him (but at least get a few more shots at the SB)
Or
They can hold fast, watch the defense melt into a weakness and watch any chance at going back to the SB for the next 2-3 years go with it. Unless Bevell gets food poisoning for a year, the offense is not going to be good enough to carry a bad defense. And hamstringing the defense by punching a giant hole in it (in the form of a missing safety since the defense hinges on the effectiveness of the safeties) is not going to help.
It won't matter how great the DL or pursuit is if the QB can just roll out and complete pass after pass on you, until the DL is gassed. This defense has some big weaknesses, some of which I think are a direct result of losing the DC. Not the time you can afford to be dickering about the effect of bending for Kam.
You can stick to your principles and be right, or you can win - but you do not get to do both.
