    Shelby Harris - "Seattle is a Purgatory "

    Eh, he's talking about his feelings at the time of the trade. Feelings that many in our fanbase shared about the direction of the franchise when we moved on from Russ. He was wrong. The conversation just didn't steer in that direction.

    Macdonald: "Geno Answering the Call"

    So, two-time Seahawks Pro Bowl quarterback Geno Smith is answering the call? Shocker. Who would have thought the guy who has ranked in the top ten in most categories since becoming a starter would impress his new head coach? I mean, he was just Pete's guy, right? RIGHT? In all seriousness, this...

    Gruden: What The?

    IIRC, the NV state courts were seen as more favorable to Gruden's case since Nevada has clearly defined laws on intentional interference, and local courts tend to be (and, in this case, were) more sympathetic to employees. I assume his lawyers tried forcing the case into a more public venue to...

    NFL Network’s Total Access Is Over

    It seemed inevitable, honestly. Expensive studio shows don't make sense in 2024 unless they coincide with a game. If the NFL is smart, they'd run a small podcast with low overhead and have that air during the offseason to have "new" programming.

    Pete caused the Adams fiasco from the start

    The article doesn't mention who ultimately made the trade. The rift—if you want to call it that—was over how Adams was used. Since we don't know how playing Adams exclusively LB would have worked out, the conclusions some people are drawing from Huard's comments are ridiculous. For example...

    Do you believe this about Russell Wilson?

    The test was designed to weed out job applicants. So, I assume that it holds value in showing that the prospect put some effort into their studies and prepared for the draft. Personally, I don't think it holds much value to evaluate someone's ability to quickly process a play call, though...

    Do you believe this about Russell Wilson?

    Judging by the Wonderlic sample questions, Russell's score does not indicate much. Here's an example from the Indy Star. Find the word that doesn't belong: A: Inch B: Meter C: Centimeter D: Kilometer Honestly, the whole sample test feels like something you'd only score poorly on if you...

    Do you believe this about Russell Wilson?

    The opening line of that article is ridiculous. Russ signing with Pittsburgh wasn't a notable seismic event. What I don't understand about Russ's situation is that we've heard he has an elite work ethic—first in, last out. What the heck is he doing with his time at team facilities if not...

    Do we have a playoff roster?

    John basically said they fired Pete because the team underperformed. On paper, the team is better. So, a playoff roster should be the expectation.

    Deion Sanders says Shedeur & Hunter will decide where they play

    Sure, but your argument removes agency from the players. When, in reality, the players chose to accept terms that allowed the draft to exist. So, there really is nothing illegal there. It's similar to an exclusivity agreement with a cellphone provider, where the arrangement might technically...

    Deion Sanders says Shedeur & Hunter will decide where they play

    The primary reason the draft hasn't come under legal scrutiny is that the players agreed to it. There is nothing inherently illegal about it. Mutually beneficial compromises happen in every market.

    Deion Sanders says Shedeur & Hunter will decide where they play

    The NFL is an industry with rules to ensure competitiveness. Nothing mandates these kids to play in the league, so if they want to work in a profession that allows them to choose where they live, they can. Calling playing in the NFL "indentured servitude" is ridiculous. Indentured servants don't...

    Geno for Cousins?

    Considering Cousin's recent injury, I can't imagine Seattle even considering this.

    POLL: What If Byron Was Our Only Pick?

    This is the most depth and talent they've had on the D-Line in years, so expectations should be pretty high for the unit. Will Murphy put them over the top next season? Eh, I wouldn't place too many marbles on a rookie deciding the season. I just hope he's not LJ Collier.

    Mike Salk goes in on Richard Sherman

    Salk is right. Sherman has made it pretty clear that he thinks Seattle fans owe him something. Whenever someone disagrees with him, he disparages them by describing how Seattle was nothing before he arrived. He takes every little thing as a slight against him. He's toxic. Not worth following...
