    Time to get Baker

    I would only go with Mayfield if we could get him for cheap. Better than Lock? Probably. Lock had multiple opportunities to succeed and fell short. But Mayfield is not elite and whinny, not a good combo. If the Seahawks can admit to themselves that they are in a rebuild, I agree with the...

    Baker Mayfield: Seahawks most likely option

    I have my doubts about Mayfield, too, but for next year he would probably be our best option if the price is right. We already know Smith and Lock are not starting material. They had plenty of opportunities to prove themselves and fell short consistentl.

    Who is our next QB? 70 million would be useless with no QB?!

    I would just note that the people running the Broncos are smart and capable. If Wilson was no longer an elite QB, they would not have traded for him. I always wondered if Carroll was too rigid in his approach, coaching to a system rather than to his team’s talents.

    Okay - seriously. WTF is the global plan here.

    Top QBs are hard to find and Drew Lock is not one of them, but Wilson is. I get that there was tension, but the last time I can remember someone of Wilson's caliber get traded was when Brees went to New Orleans, and then he was hurt and the Chargers had Rivers (who they should have traded...

    Well, guess which AFC team I follow

    In the nfc, of course, I am a Seahawks fan, but in the afc, the Broncos are my team (I used to be a Charger fan, being originally from San Diego, until the team moved to LA, an act of treachery without equal in human history). So one of my teams got worse and is likely in rebuild mold, the...

    What NFL.com says about the Saints game

    I used to follow the Chargers. When Schottenheimer could not take them to the SB, he ended up getting fired in a 12-4 year. What followed was a 14 year drought, which now seems to be coming to an end. Most fans would love to take that firing back. One thing that is worse than not making the...

    What NFL.com says about the Saints game

    Here is the link: https://www.nfl.com/news/2021-nfl-seaso ... n-monday-n Basically, said too much running into the teeth of the Saints defense, too little use of Metcalf, poor offensive play calling. Sort of confirming the obvious, admittedly.

    Bad TV reception out east

    I am watching the game near Baltimore, or to be more precise, trying to. It shuts down every 30 seconds for a few minutes! Any troubles out west?

    Tre Flowers released

    Wonder what happened after such a promising start.

    Should Seattle lose tonight

    Well, so far it looks like a win tonight is in reach. The Hawks are not an elite team, even with Wilson. But it is hard to see how they make the playoffs if they lose tonight. Even if they lose, I don’t see them making many changes until closer to the end of season.

    Fire Carroll? Remember Schottenheimer and the Chargers

    And the Chargers kept winning, as Lombardi said, that is the only thing. Coaches that can win consistently are hard to find. I can promise you, if they fire Carroll and the Hawks start missing the playoffs, it won‘t seem worth the risk.

    Fire Carroll? Remember Schottenheimer and the Chargers

    I understand all of the frustrations with the Hawks. Now that Wilson is out for 3ish games, we are probably not going to the playoffs. While it sometimes happens that a backup rises the challenge, I cannot recall it happening this early in the season. Foles is probably the best performance by...

    There is no reason Geno Can not be good

    I hope you are right, but doubt it, unless it is a one-game thing. There is too little room for error, given our record. If he could carry the team, he would be a starter.

    Is this type of finger injury fully recoverable?

    Could mean the end of any playoff hopes, unless it is a one game thing. If Geno Smith we’re the answer, he would be a starter. Too much season left for a backup to manage, and our record is already a problem.

    Encouraging Loss

    Being on the east coast (usually, recently bought a house in Camas), I don’t get to see the Hawks much, but did see tonight’s game on a Southwest flight. We were up against a very capable QB, but our defense does not seem to show up when it counts. When the game was on the line, the Rams...
