MM Equity

[AROS]

I hope this is our one WTF game of the year like the Steelers at home was last year.

 

[Lagartixa]

Honestly, I only saw 1 problem today that stood out compared to the 1st 4 games...Tackling! That was a strength in the previous games. If Mikey can get that figured out, we are back on track.

Uh, in what sense was tackling a "strength" in the game against the Lions?

Even players like Witherspoon who had previously shown an ability to tackle looked pathetic failing multiple times to bring down ball carriers.

Well, I'm not giving up the ship after just one bad outing and one horrid coaching performance. This is a marathon, not a sprint, so I can't say that I agree with the OP. But it has sobered me up.

Last time I checked, this coach is playing with Carroll's left over crap lineman besides Murphy. He was given a stacked deck of subpar lineman, what does this fanbase expect him to do? Miraculously make our OLine and Dline good. Give him a couple of years to draft the players he needs to make his scheme work then judge him. Jeesh this fanbase is flakey as hell and fairweathered to say the least.

You all are incredibly naive, this team is gonna need way more than 5 games to gel, R-E-L-A-X.

Defensive guru, incredible defensive mind. They come out and play lights out game 1 then progressively get worse on defense through 5 games to the point of being utterly embarrassing yesterday with inexcusable execution. If there were growing pains as they gradually improve, sure understandable. But they looked completely outcoached, outclassed, and outplayed yesterday and everyone saying how great MM has been changing the culture and everything til now has been fleeced. A game like yesterday loses locker rooms and faith in coaches, especially new head coaches trying to establish themselves. I'm just saying I now no longer buy any hype he's been given at all.

Is that so naive?

while they peed down their leg yesterday, giving up on a HC 5 games in is laughable. Even for dot everything sucks.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

All I see in here is passionate fanbase that are pissed off we lost to a bad Giants team at our own house. Myself included..just what the hell is happening with this thing

Safe to say we are all pissed. That's how it works. But people giving up on the team after 5 games is laughable.

Losing a game isn't terrible. No team goes undefeated.

Losing a game to the Giants kinda is terrible.

Losing a game to the Giants after literally letting the Lions violate your defense on national TV the week before?

Even more terrible.

Letting the Giants run through your defense while noname WRs dominated your supposedly top-tier secondary? At home?!?

Pungent. Terrible. Awful. Maybe even atrocious.

It can get worse....but honestly not by much. We are now a worse team than the Giants. (Let that sink in)

 

[SoulfishHawk]

If they win on Thursday..........this will all feel a hell of a lot better. But for the next few days. Puke

 

[Hawknight]

I need to rewatch that game....however painful it may be....but frustrating nonetheless...Metcalf fumble, Lockett's catches and then lay down in the fetal position plays, defense MIA, losing key players to injuries again, blocked field goals...not our best day...but I think we'll recover and MM will bring this team to greatness....or this fanbase explodes like the Deathstar in Star Wars...whatever....it's just one game....

He's working with Carrol's leftovers and both sides of the line need major upgrades. It's gonna take a couple years to fully implement his system and the players needed to run it

You couldn't pay me to watch one second of that replay. Seeing in person was enough. My stomach still hurts

The part that plays over and over in my mind is teams being able to push our defense front back and run right up the middle for 6-10 yards.

That isn't going to stop fellas until they figure it out. SF will

You know what SF will do.

I love to torture myself I guess...

That's me, too. This morning, I wanted to go back and watch some of the key plays in the game and I couldn't do it. It felt like I was 4 years old and being forced to eat my vegetables. God, how I hated cooked carrots and peas.

I stand corrected...ur the first 3 games

 

[renofox]

We seem to lose a lot of games in spectacular, record breaking manners.

The Seahawks hold the record for allowing records to be broken? Sounds accurate.

 

[suppaball]

Wow, if this thread isn’t a classic example of fans letting their emotions cloud their otherwise rational intellect fresh after a shocking loss I don’t know what is.

Appreciate the good laugh all the same.

We lost to Dan Jones and it wasn't even close. Think about that. If we don't get a 102 yard td return we lose by 16. That is unacceptable at home to a shit team.

 

[Hawknight]

As painful as it may sound to many of us die hard fans for the Seattle Seahawks. MM sounds promising, however; he came into a not so rosy salary cap situation and he's dealing with several players of which he hasn't had much time to work with in less than a season. Yes, he had his first draft, not bad ..hence Murphy. We have to give it a full 3 seasons before we can see the full potential of what MM has to offer. I'm only guessing as I'm not a salary cap or and X & O expert by any means, but I think perhaps we were hoping for way too much in so little time from our new coaching staff. I think once salary caps issues subside and he has a full season or two to obtain and develop players of MM's choosing...we have a lot of growing pains ahead. We will have exciting games and we will have Giant type games, I guarantee the Giants type game yesterday won't be the last one from a lowly type team. Anyways, it's 105 degrees where i'm living right now, so i'm probably out of mind at the moment and typing nonsense, but that's how I'm seeing it for right now. Great times will happen..patience is the key....for us fans anyways. Ok..i'm off to go melt...
