Holy moly, it's time for someone else to start. That's incredible.

I'm honestly sick and tired of these. You can watch film on anyone in the league and find bad reps. But to post the same 4 or 5 on the same player over and over and over makes me wonder if he's so horrible, why is the same 5 reps and not hundreds? He was hurt in the AZ game so maybe he earns a pass. We get it, you found a whipping boy, a reason to hate rather than try and find positives. The team obviously sees things differently. If he's so horrible why have we not traded for someone else yet? Why are our backups not playing instead of him? Why is any random player off the street not in there instead?

This crap gets old.

He's so completely f%$#ing terrible, I LOVE it. He might be my favorite Seahawks player in recent memory. He brings the laughs for sure. Brilliant.

 

[Natethegreat]

Pretty sure those clips from the first reel were all from the Texans game. I wonder if they make a change over the bye.

Aside, pretty much every single fanbase in the league complains about their OL. It's a universal truth. And trading for one is a very special circumstance (e.g., Trent Williams) because every team needs more of them, not less.

Haynes can finally start practicing again coming of IR. Hopefully over the by him and Richman and Cabledue get serious consideration.

I get what you are saying for sure. You can make any player look bad by going over their season and cherry picking their mistakes.
The problem is you can do this for every game Bradford plays. I was in the let's give him time to develop camp but I think he needs to sit at this point.

 

[Shane Falco]

Wow. We really needed another Bradford/RG thread. Wasn't this being covered?

 

[Kamcussionator]

We should move Bradford to RB. His ability to avoid blockers and keep it North-South should immediately improve our run game.

Everyone has bad reps but Bradford is putting on a clinic here.

It's ok. We don't have to accept horrible play. We can expect better. Teams see this on film and they will exploit it unless something changes.

 

[cymatica]

I think a bigger challenge would be to find enough reps to make a highlight reel of good plays

Was it?

Show me the thread that had this latest vid that was focused on the Texans game, Shane.

I'll wait.

The first vid is what my focus is on, not the other one that's been around for weeks.

The First vid that is solely focused on the Texans game.

BRADFORD IS AWFUL. Okay?

There is a large enough sample size to know for sure now.

He stinks and needs to be replaced.

My fear, however, is that there is no one "better" which is frightening.


JS should be working the phones looking for someone....ANYONE...that is even Average to put in Bradford's RG spot.

Otherwise, Bradford is going to be a big reason we lose games.

Wasn't really my point. Why not just post the new video in one of the current Bradford threads. They are about the same thing, Bradford is not good and we need a fix. Not a big deal either way, I'm not real bothered by it... was just a thought.

We don’t have to sugarcoat it. This isn’t just one game this is what some of us been seeing every game. Physically, unless he’s asked to drive block, the guy is made of molasses. Mentally, he seems checked out, zero passion, zero remorse. I don’t know if it’s a personal matter he’s dealing with or he’s just miserable in Seattle and the seasonal depression demon has possessed him or if he just has a bag of rocks for brains. Despite being an elite prototype of size, length, power, and athletic measures maybe he just a big dude getting by and not necessarily a football player.

But some people (here as well as elsewhere) think its going to be fine (he’s so dominant when he connects), some people think continuity is the answer (why change anything we are 5-2 and have allowed only 9 sacks) but Bradford is a walking liability that is going to get someone seriously injured if they continue to give him opportunities to do so. Imagine losing both Darnold and Lucas to serious injuries because of Bradford’s high whiff rate of doing next to nothing, penchant of getting worked when he does secure blocks, and his rather silly tendency of being a 330 pound pinball when he’s flailing around or on the ground.

I don’t know why Benton gave up on Laumea so quickly or if he gave him a legit shot at all. Yeah, he might not have had a high ceiling, nor the athleticism one would prefer or want in a ZBS, nor the raw power that Bradford and Haynes possess but the dude at least put up a proper fight and played with energy and heart willing to die on his sword and seemingly had great rapport with Lucas both on and off the field.

This.

I can find clips of Tom Brady that make him look like a 4th stringer.

Except….TBs stats said otherwise. Bradford’s do not. Game after game, he’s consistently way below average.

Everyone asks why our run game hasn’t materialized the way MM spoke to it earlier on.

Bradford is the #1 culprit.

Holy moly, it's time for someone else to start. That's incredible.

If our other guys are worse than him, we should just cut them all

 

[beastalamode]

Bad (or good?) news guys, there's a video of Bradford going around showing him placing football bets at a casino. Kinda looks like Tulalip
