    #6 Sam Howell

    I suspect Grubb was consulted more than Macdonald. Macdonald has publicly said he's focused on the defense. I'm sure he was in the discussion but Grubb's opinion about how well Howell would fit in his offense would carry a lot of weight.

    Why it took so long to make a coaching change?

    Pete wasn't fired sooner because he'd only missed the playoffs four times in his tenure. Good grief, we're spoiled as Seahawk fans that anyone would think he should be fired sooner. I disagree that Paul would likely have fired him sooner, but I believe Paul would have held him more accountable...

    Macdonald: "Geno Answering the Call"

    I do expect it to be better. Pete's mantra on defense was to line 'em up and let 'em compete. That worked great when we had a few hall of famers on defense, less so when we had a group of JAGs. We've heard team after team comment about how our defense never changed, never tried to fool anyone...

    Shelby Harris - "Seattle is a Purgatory "

    He wasn't insulting to Seattle. He basically said he was depressed to be traded and had a hard time getting over that. He doesn't blame that on the team.

    Macdonald: "Geno Answering the Call"

    I don't know what people expect from Macdonald. I don't think I'd be too excited if he stepped up to the podium and started talking like some of the posters here - "Yeah, Geno kinda sucks and I tried to convince John to go after a QB in the first round but that didn't work out. I'll just work on...

    Probably "Here We Go".

    Optical Tracking System for 2024

    So does the system actually guide the official where to spot the ball, or does it rely on the ref to spot the ball and then indicates whether it is a first down?

    Sonics return

    Too late. Not only the the NBA give Seattle fans a big middle finger, but the game itself has changed. They've totally lost me as a potential customer.

    #6 Sam Howell

    I think Howell throws less INTs when he has a running game. Last year teams were able to tee off on the Commanders, both with the pass rush and DBs not needing to pay much attention to the RBs.

    #6 Sam Howell

    It's a new offense to both QBs. I know they're paying Geno the respect of calling him the starter, but if Howell takes to the new O noticeably better I have to think he'll get the nod.

    Dj Dallas' return to Seattle?

    I'm not sure why he thinks he has a beef. Got 4 years of pay from the Seahawks and plenty of chances, but could never break the starting lineup. Forgive me for not being too worried about him being a worldbeater when he comes back with an undeserved chip on his shoulder.

    Lions QB Jared Goff agrees to $212 million extension

    Whether you're a Geno fan or not, it makes sense to see how well both he and Howell work with Grubb and run his offense before making any long term commitments. I'm a Geno fan and think he is good enough to take a super bowl caliber team all the way.....but I want to see how he handles this...

    Frustrating Former Seahawks

    Percy Harvin. A couple of amazing highlights just to show us what we'd never see again.

    Stealers Looking for a WR...

    I'm way more confident in McDonald's ability to instill some discipline in DK than I was with Pete. For all of Pete's good qualities, holding a player accountable was not one of his strengths. Pete just figured DK would learn his lesson, I suspect McDonald is gonna help that learning process...

    DK rumor's

    That depends entirely on how Geno and Howell do in Grubb's offense. Geno is under contract for two more years. So is Howell. I don't doubt that drafting a QBoTF will be a constant drumbeat.....here on Seahawks.net. Most of the mock drafts for 2024 didn't expect the Seahawks to pick a QB in the...
