    Doug Baldwin signs extension for 4 years, $46 million

    Given the way Seattle's offense has operated the last several years, it's a bit of a mistake to just judge by counting stats, don't you think?

    Seahawks sign CJ Spiller

    I think at this point, he runs out of bounds for some very specific reasons... he's 29, has an injury history, may be interested in prolonging his career. Each time he ran out in the video above, there was a defender coming in to lay a hit. In the clip where he didn't have someone coming in from...

    Play Pete, Do You Sit or Start Russell

    Fitzpatrick has never played for the Cards. Not sure who you're talking about, unless you're talking about when he was playing for Buffalo in 2012 and we went there and won 50-17 (that's the only time we've ever faced him). In that game, he certainly wasn't good, but he wasn't 6 picks bad. He's...

    Is Steve Smith a Hall of Famer?

    Probably not first ballot due to the WR logjam, but yeah, he'll get in.

    Play Pete, Do You Sit or Start Russell

    Start him. Every single game is an injury risk, so this thinking that he will magically heal up and then be solid the rest of the season is silly. He could get injured in the Jets game and end up on IR. Or he could get injured the week we come back from the bye and end up on IR. If he can play...

    Is there any reason?

    How about this: Seattle has won its home opener every single year since 2009. In those 7 games, the most points the Seahawks have allowed is 16, to the Packers in 2014. The average score of those 7 games has been 27-6.

    Why do so few Seahawk receivers wear #s in the 80?

    Because our TEs aren't wearing numbers in the 40s anymore? So they take more of the 80s range? And if you look around the league, you'll see a similar trend. The Cards, Chiefs, Falcons, Panthers, and Texans don't have any receivers who wear 80s numbers. Less than half the league's teams have...

    State of the NFC West...

    I won't do a full analysis, but I think both things are probably right to some degree. We don't have as much depth at DB as we did in 2013, and if Wilson goes down, we're in a world of hurt. That said, this team is younger than it has been in years, and many of the distractions of the last two...

    Could we get anything good for Boykin from:

    While I think Tarvaris has gotten a worse rap than he deserves on this board, I don't see him as an option in Seattle any longer. He's 33 years old with 9 years in the league. His veteran minimum is loads more than the team would pay for Boykin, and if Carroll and Schneider want to develop a...

    My Seahawks Guitar

    Beautiful. Me, I love the wood grain, so I'd have tried to maybe do a blue stain with the logo overlaid on it somehow.

    Seahawks to Meet w/Michael Bennett's Agent About New Deal

    You answered your own question. It's because fans of the team feel they have more invested in the team, so when a player decides they want more money in a league with a salary cap, the fans feel that the player is hurting the team they root for. Well, that, and because fans are often petty and...

    Best NFL Defensive Triplets Ranked

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/16392 ... s-top-list For those of you who bashed Barnwell for his too low placement of the Hawks in the offensive triplets rankings, I'm sure you'll enjoy his article about the other side of the ball.

    Best NFL offensive triplets ranked.

    Excellent points. Barnwell is top notch, but I disagree with his assessment here. I understand his hesitance to assume that Baldwin will pick up where he left off last season, and none of us know if Rawls will return from injury at the same level he was or if any of the 72 RBs we drafted can...

    Just a game manager. (Best Young QB Field Gulls Article)

    Hey, did you all hear what Shawn Springs said about playing in Seattle? :shock:
