    DK to steelers

    Well... damn. Knew he was gone already, but still. Was holding onto a sliver of hope. Feel like this off-season got real nuts, real fast.

    Aaron Rodgers?

    My one and only hope is they are leaking this crap to make signing Darnold seem great by comparison...

    Aaron Rodgers?

    This is... suboptimal.

    EJIV signed!

    Damn, well under what I thought. Love it! Guess Chiefs and Eagles LB deals put a serious cap on the ceiling for his seal.

    Was trading Geno, DK part of Schneider's master plan?

    Current reporting is that it was $40-$45M and Geno's side got the offer, said no, gave no counter, and then asked to be traded. For Geno's talent level, probably a slight low ball. For his age? Probably generous. So, really feels like a fair offer. It really seems like Geno just kind of forced...

    Geno Thoughts

    I do think we should have gotten more (I mean, trade request happened on Thursday, he's gone by Friday?) but it's looking more and more like Geno just wanted his last big contract to be with Pete in Vegas. As both a Seahawks fan and a fan of Geno, not the happiest news for me (I did declare the...

    Seahawks Targeting Sam Darnold

    I'm aware, my point is that any ranking that suggests that a team who bought their QB the highest average pocket time that NFL Next Gen Stats has ever tracked is 'bottom 5' in pass blocking fundamentally fails to understand what pass blocking is for. No, it seemed to start as idle speculation...

    Was trading Geno, DK part of Schneider's master plan?

    I lean towards reactionary. We know both trades were requested by DK and Geno. Obviously, we could have already been shopping them both but the reporting for both guys just before the demands came to light was the opposite of that. I think we put together a plan on short notice but, no, I...

    Seahawks Targeting Sam Darnold

    Hawkblogger is on some serious copium here. The quick pressure difference is massive. Having a good rating under pressure because you were able to hold onto the ball forever which allowed pressure to get to you but now Jettas is wide open deep is completely different than adjusting to quick...

    Seahawks Targeting Sam Darnold

    Well, the 5+ is if the Darnold experiment works (Spoiler: I have my doubts.) It's essentially rolling the dice that if you hit with Darnold, you've got a foundation. If they fixed everything and got the offense humming next year with Geno, you still only have another year, 2 tops.

    Geno traded!

    If Pete didn't try the ill-fated Clint Hurtt/Fangio-style defense experiment in 2022 and we had married that top 10 offense with the top 10 defense we had in 2021... If we tried an experienced NFL OC in 2024 and we had managed to keep our top 10 2023 offense going into 2024 with our new top 10...

    Seahawks Targeting Sam Darnold

    Darnold is a lesser Geno. Plus arm talent, good with timing throws, willing to take shots... but also not as accurate, athletic, or poised in the pocket. But he's younger so I can see the calculus being Darnold is minus a bit in talent, but if we upgrade our OL, it's a wash and then he's a...

    Justin Fields

    I don't understand what we would be hoping for with Fields. This just makes no sense to me. I mean, I think people are overestimating what a 'crippling' QB contract looks like. Geno at $45M wouldn't have 'crippled us' and neither will Darnold at $35M (if that's what he gets). If we are trying...

    Geno traded!

    Vikings had a top 10 pass blocking line last year. (They were brought down by what they could do at run blocking). They were #2 in Pass Block Win Rate and top 10 in Time-To-Pressure. Darnold just held onto the ball for a really long time. His time-to-throw is what you expect from a scrambling...

    Poll: Who do you want as next year‘s QB?

    Just had a thought that since we've gone nuts over here, why not just lean into it and get Jameis 'I-Got-A-Guy-Down-There-Somewhere' Winston? Rodgers last good season was 2021.
