I hear ya. Inconsistent w/out a doubt this year. But the games starting with the Niners and thru the Vikings games, you could see some real improvement. Adding Diggs was huge for this team.

There is a Russ hating entourage here(not very big) that ALWAYS barks when he has an off game. They NEVER post when he is doing good. Part of the reason it has been nice here for most of the season.
And then there are the Pete haters(a much bigger group). I can go on. They know who they are.
I have great perspective living in Lions country. Man, oh man they have it bad. It makes me so glad I am a Seahawk fan. :2thumbs:

The whole complaining after every WIN is pretty much a regular thing. Instead of enjoying a win, regardless what the score is. 10-3, come on Hawks, you're not 13-0! Slackers.
3rd time I ever agreed with you. We all want to be right and we all want to have the last word . Fan forums are all over and they all have the same situations as here . I have to admit that this is entertainment for me . and just for chits and giggles...can we imagine what would happen in here ; if the AZ Cardinals " flutterd " into Seattle and won :!: :!: ...that would be several days of carnage in here ; but entertaining to the max .SoulfishHawk":1so04wvo said:Well said. As much as I joke about it, I love coming to this site and talking football. It's entertaining in so many ways. Go Hawks :irishdrinkers:

Well said. For some perspective again, the 2019 Seahawks are:
- #2 most injured team, by missed player games (that was before Penny!); and they faced the

Didn't we hear the same from some of the 9er fans here as well?cymatica":38f48fb5 said:Tamerlane":38f48fb5 said:Seahwkgal":38f48fb5 said:All the Debbie Downers show up and flood this board.

It's ironic that all I have heard from the media outlets all year is how Seattle would have lost if player x was healthy.

You don't get a GM/Coach/QB talent combo like this too often. It's paid off for the Patriots & Steelers with multiple championships.
We're hoping we get ours. Many of us put in many years of suffering and mediocrity, and feel like it's our time. It's nice to have winning seasons, but the championships are what really count.
Here's to hoping this team learns from Sunday and focuses on being the best. Need some players to emerge as leaders/voices on Defense aka Sherm, Bennett, Avril, and Earl. They had fire in their bellies and ice water in their veins. Still trying to figure out who has that on this year's squad.
Or one bad call like happened to the Saints last year.OrangeGravy":3v0ldn3m said:soxhawk":3v0ldn3m said:Maybe everyone's secretly afraid that we'll waste these great years of opportunity? I know I am.

But fans forget how difficult it is to actually WIN or even get to the SB. You can clearly have the best team in the NFL and the odds are still pretty long. All kinds of things can happen during a season and in the playoffs it only takes one bad day or bad injury and you're out. Just look back to 2013. If Sherman doesn't tip that ball, we don't even get to run Denver out of the stadium. What do you think the odds were of us coming back and beating GB the next year in the NFC championship game? Those are 2 years where we had extremely good football teams and we were still a razor's edge away from not even getting to the SB. All you can hope for as a fan is that your team plays well enough to get in the playoffs and has enough talent to make some noise if they play well. Venting after a loss is normal, but the constant whining about wins is tiresome and massive energy suck.
I also think the Patriots have skewed expectations for the entire NFL's fanbase. I'm still not convinced what they've done is on the up and up completely, but that's a whole other discussion.
