It’s obvious someone told them don’t tackle too hard or you get hurt

They are just playing touch football out there.

WHAT!!! Have you been a fan for a long time or are you a newly bandwagoner. Pete's first year was HORRENDOUS. They literally got blown out every single game. The second year was no better. The third year it started to come together.
Didn't we win a playoff game Pete's first year?

Which one of you is cosplaying Derrick Hall and which is Jarran Reed? You guys are nailing the performance. It's like I'm watching the game all over again. Just grab the face mask a little harder. That's it. I'm almost there. Don't stop.
Ok ....point taken.. I'm just sick of being attacked because I express my opinion. It's as simple as that.

Yup, and then they got blown out the following week. What's your point? That they made the playoffs their first year with a 7-9 record because the entire division had losing records.

A play off win is a play off win... as I remember it there wasn't anyone in the world that thought the Hawks were going to beat the saints... it was a glorious win no matter how you look at it.

I agree. It was a historical moment with that Beast Mode run that literally shook the city, I remember.

After watching the first eight games of the season the protagonist should be named Marty McFlag
Actually I don't have a problem with Reed taking it to Hall. That's veteran leadership... that's what vets are supposed to do. I have no problem with that I've seen the Hawks D to that for years... it's the sign of a healthy locker room.

I never saw the LOB face mask one another and have to be separated by a coach.

Well...I can remember that it happened with Wagner in a game a long time ago... but mostly it happened in practice and in the locker room...it was Carroll thing... being who you are and being accountable.

it's really simple they dont run the ball. I can't watch teams that can't run the ball.

I remember players fighting and injuring each other under Carrol. I also remember players going after coaches. I remember Earl Thomas flipping off Carrol. Good grief we have some selective memories when we want to be negative and find things wrong with the current era.
Carrol often did not seem to have control of his team. they were often undisciplined and error prone and flag prone. Its time to get over Carrol he isn't coming back for us OR ANY OTHER TEAM!!!

That loss to Chicago was much closer than it looks. Like all Pete division games we let them get out to an early lead. But Big Play Babs missed two critical game changing plays. Cutler threw it right at him on the goal line, but Babs dropped the pick six, and the bears got a TD soon after. Later on a third down Babs missed Cutler and he got the first down extending the drive to a TD instead of a field goal. That's a 14 point swing play followed by a 4 point play. But not.

In what world was Earl Thomas flipping off our coach ever a good commentary on the health of our program? That's a pretty bad example.
