Not sure what the winner get :irishdrinkers: :34853_tinfoil:

With all the doom and gloom in the media, I'm voting low. They'll be sneaking out the back.

Or they flocked to the 49ers since everyone seems to be gobbing their nob this offseason.

If we do poorly in preseason, half would be packing.
If we do poorly in first two regular season games, three quarter will start packing.
If we don't rebound fiercely by game five, half would leave.

I haven't looked at the schedule yet, but if we lose 3 out of the first 5, say bye bye to the fair weather fans....

Good. Get em out of here.

Theyre a symptom of success so why do you want a lack of success?

I really just don't see us being that bad this year, it MIGHT be another 9-7 season, but I think our offense is going to be much stronger with a better line and running game to support Wilson taking yet another veteran step as he's challenged by Schottenheimer, we've got some beasts in the backfield, some of the best special teamers in the league, and nice big bodied targets with varied specialties and speed. The defense will be top ten, we have a tough schedule on paper, this team is exciting and young and fast and fresh and hungry, someone else said it before me but I've been thinking it for awhile now, IF things work out we really can be that team in December, sitting 10-6 or so that nobody wants to play whatsoever.

Same.

The run game improvements alone are enough to offset the Defensive losses. A defense that played uninspired and already had checked out mentally. I can't envision a PC Defense in his 9th season being bad. (It won't be.)

The bandwagon could feel up again real quick actually. If the Hawks win the first 2 games of the season, that are on the road against non-playoff teams, suddenly Seattle's schedule swings heavily back in their favor. They don't leave the Pacific Time Zone, but 1 time post late October. Insanely favorable. But they have to win the first 2.

I enjoyed the ride, and I expect our Hawks to play quite poorly this year with HOPES they may find something mid season to look forward to the following season. BUT I'm not going anywhere. I've been in my same nosebleed seats for the past 6 years and I'm excited for the possibility of finally moving down a few rows. That being said, I wonder how many poor seasons it'll take for me to realistically start being able to move down.

I find I have less to say when things go poorly. Being a fan of the Seahawks since the beginning, I have seen some down years but as long as there arent trucks lining up to take the gear to California, this season will be better than that.

I am trying hard to be an optimist but find the struggle against pessimism difficult. I have decided just to not worry about the preseason and let the season tell me what will be. I am just along for the ride now for a month or so until I see how the change settled in.

For those of us who have to travel long distances to attend one game a year or so, band wagon fans leaving, dropping prices on secondary sites to more reasonable levels would be a welcome change. The one negative of this run of the last 5-6 years is how expensive tickets have been.

This^ Control the time of possession by running the ball, and we have a chance to be in every game.

So, fair weather fans don't really bother me like most here.

As a longtime season ticket holder (tickets at the Kingdome, Husky Stadium to Seahawks Stadium/Qwest/CenturyLink), I've seen a lot of good and a lot of bad.

Are the annoying? Sure, but I just don't let them get to me.

This thread will grow after we smoke the Colts. I have been calling for quick hitting plays to the RBs to make the line more effective. Tre flowers gets two picks. Penny 100 plus. Fun!
