    Sam Howell is our Brock Purdy, until he isn't.

    He also LOVED Drew Lock

    Myles Garret Requests a Trade

    They have a lot of cap space because they signed a bunch of 1 year deals last year, so they have a ton of holes to fill. But the QB is phenomenal.

    MacDonald riding with Geno

    Thing is, this is a discussion board where people are free to express their opinions. It just gets sticky when opinions are expressed as facts and people try to argue their personal opinion against facts. If all you feel is that Geno is bad in the redzone Geno doesnt throw enough TDs Geno is...

    MacDonald riding with Geno

    The thing that is most frustrating is that just pointing to a broad range of facts that support the position that Geno can be a top 10 qb (again, because he has been) gets recast as blindly defending the qb, thinking he is elite, believing he is faultless, etc. Fact is, most of my posts stem...

    Macdonald and Schneider at Senior Bowl

    If thats the case, WHY DID HE HAVE A 33:2 TD TO INT RATIO BEFORE GRUBB? Answer: because he was in a college offense that didnt have a solution for NFL defenses in the redzone and forced throws to try to make something happen - which was the wrong thing to do, but was in large part why the OC...

    MacDonald riding with Geno

    Amen. I literally cant think of a post or thread that claimed Geno was elite. Capable of elite performance? Yes. Absolutely. He has already shown that. But his performance hasnt been elite to date for a stretch long enough to warrant the label. But, it keeps getting repeated that 'the other...

    Seahawks Hire Klint Kubiak as OC

    I do hope that Kubiak with Mac will be > than Kubiak with the other coaches he was matched with. To the degree the HC and other leadership in the room from Monday to Sunday can have a positive effect on the knowledge and performance of an OC, Kubiak could blossom into an outstanding coordinator...

    2024 Season End Thoughts

    Geno has thrown almost the same number of passes (2600) in the NFL as Joe Burrow. Not all 36 year old qbs are equal. For comparison, Stafford, who is also 36, has tossed 8100 passes. The wear and tear on Smith's arm is less than 1/3rd of what it likely would be had he started his whole career...

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    Thats fine. But sometimes eyes function as much to confirm a bias as they do anything else. Theres an element of emotion that drives the eyeball test sometimes if one doesnt possess the discipline or skill (or chooses not to apply it) to set aside feelings about a team or player. And thats...

    Geno Smith Time in Pocket: Tied for 15th in NFL

    Agree. I hope we make a play for Will Fries and add a real FB to our attack

    Geno Smith Time in Pocket: Tied for 15th in NFL

    Our O line isnt as bad as the coaching made it look. Its also wasnt great in the middle for reasons of coaching, injury and continuity. I forget where it was dicussed, but i remember either Baldy or Schlereth remarking that the biggest problem with our line is that it gave up pressure up the...

    Geno Smith Time in Pocket: Tied for 15th in NFL

    This, x 2000. Folks went from not understanding the game to playing football and having takes on players based purely on TDs, yards, ints, catches, etc. Ruined the beauty of the game.

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    Thats cool that your eyetest is good enough for you. That eye test, absent real, concrete information about the who, how, what, and when of a play doesnt mean much. Its why you have virtually every coach in the league often delay responding to questions about why X player played poorly or why Y...

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    Exactly. There are degrees of eye test depending on how much you know about the game.

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    Correct. The few that make the playoffs. We have gone 3 years now with coordinators who's offenses are figured out by mid season. The teams in the post-season who contend, get better in November and December, not worse. Having an offense who's numbers are worse over the last half of the season...

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    Nope, because it was one dimensional. If a defense could cover the matchup Grubbs scheme was trying to exploit, they won. And rather than adjust to what defenses were doing, he insisted on using the one tool he was master of in college and stubbornly held on to it while our line fatigued ...

    Geno Smith Time in Pocket: Tied for 15th in NFL

    Stats...stats.....stats Time in pocket... it also factors time to the ball being released, not just the pocket 'collapsing'. So if you have a qb who can skillfully evade a sack in the first 1.8 from an edge but the pocket is still intact, that qualifies as a grey zone that actually hurts the...

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    And... if you listen to the interview D Jeremiah just did with Brock and Salk on Kubiak, he said a few positive things about Kubiaks offense, the biggest being its fairly common in the league so its easy to get personnel to fit it. Biggest drawback? When you fall behind in a game its a...

    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    And more evidence that points to being less than enthused? Have you looked at hiw his offense trended in 2021 in Minnesota? In 2021, kubiaks offense averaged 414 yards per game with a high 571in the first 6 week. Over the last 6 game? 329. Take out a dud of a game against the Browns and his...
