    What Good Does It Do Us To Let Our Coaches Interview Now?

    If a team wants to interview one of our coaches, they have to get permission from the Seahawks FO. I don't think we're losing a huge amount of time. Carroll has the coaching staff practice interviewing regularly. Everyone is already prepared for the interview, so they can limit the disruption...

    Marcus Mariota not a Heisman finalist

    *shrug* Mariota wasn't going to win it after the last month. I don't really care if my guy isn't invited if he isn't going to win it anyways. That said, wtf is AJ McCarron doing there? I'd rather see Mariota, Sankey, Petty or Carey. Braxton Miller has a better case than McCarron.

    Tension in the Mariners front office

    If poor personnel moves and losing would've gotten Howard and Chuck fired, they'd have been gone years ago. As for change right now, absolutely. If not properly managed (ie not getting more pieces), the Cano deal won't be enough now and will be an anchor around our necks down the road. Do we...

    Why don't we ever, ever, ever, ever see Christine Michael?

    What the heck is a run fit?

    I believe it is another way of saying that people had a specific gap and didn't execute. Coaching philosophy. Like power vs zone blocking, there is read and react vs fill gap (or run fits), where the player knows where he is going before the snap. I'm not sure if he means that we're losing our...

    PS4 or Xbox1

    Looks like PS4 for me. XBoxOne has had to reverse a lot of their policies just to be competitive with the PS4, but since the whole "sync with everything in your house" deal sounds more creepy than awesome to me, I don't see a good reason to go XB1. That said, not supporting external hard drives...

    Earl Thomas is a missile

    Yeah, for ET, The missile style highlight is often accompanied by a missile style miss. It's gambling on a lane and his ability to recover and still make some sort of tackle if he has to adjust. The ones that work result in that kind of hit. The ones that don't work, well, they're often whiffs...

    Greetings Hawks Fans! I am Coach Shitano from Tampa

    FYI, the UW job may be opening up if you're looking at a change in employment status. More seriously, is this how you ran Rutgers? That shit worked?

    If you had to pick only one to re-sign Thomas or Sherman?

    I'm not sure I agree. We have great corners (although Browner has been up-and-down), but when they get burned, the often get burned badly because they don't have the same recovery speed as other corners and/or are playing too aggressively. Meaning, even if they cover their man most of the time...

    PSA for our most idealistic and vocal pessimists

    So, basically, the largest impact our posts will have is that some fans might have different (negative) views of players than they otherwise would? I gotta be honest, that doesn't seem like a big deal... not worth a PSA trying to get people to change their posting styles...

    Predict the score of Ducks vs Dawgs

    If we had played your schedule (sans the Cardinal, obviously), we'd still be saying that about Oregon. We don't get tested by decent teams, it takes a very good team (and UW will be that test) - look at AZ, UW, OSU, etc last year - came in ranked and got drubbed anyways. UW is a better team...

    Predict the score of Ducks vs Dawgs

    I'm not sure the UW defense is better than Oregon's, honestly. I think Oregon has a solid advantage at DL, and that will be the difference in the UW O vs UO D matchup. I think calling the defenses a push is pretty fair to UW. On offense, I can't see UW beating Oregon at its own game. Obviously...

    Let's Start Kearse Over Sydney Rice

    I'm not sure how anyone can say Rice doesn't fight for the ball. He's made a ton of difficult catches in traffic. What he doesn't do, and this drives me nuts, is come back to the ball once it is in the air. But if you throw him a jump ball or a pass that will get him drilled (or require amazing...

    Good on Spurrier...

    Nice of him. It's funny, earlier today I was thinking that next star SC player Spurrier recruits was going to have second thoughts after Spurrier's comments on gameday.

    Would better pass protection make Russell Wilson better?

    Scott's point is a good one (QB dictates OL pass protection... a lot). I think J's question is a little less crazy if you rephrase/repurpose it to be: Is RW better when defenders are slipping blockers early in the play and getting "free" looks at the QB, or when defenders are disciplined in...

    After a 4-0 UW Start, Lets remember...

    Here's how this place works. UW fan makes a UW themed post UW fan disparages Oregon UW fans start arguing about whether UW's history matters to Oregon or something that like UW fans bicker through several posts Dawg and UncleSi - "OMG THERE ARE SO MANY DUCK FANS HERE!!!" ... of course, if you...

    Eugene Monroe Trade to Balt

    He might've been able to help us in the short term, since we're desperate, but he hasn't played very well since entering the league. There is a reason Jacksonville took a tackle #2 overall and then traded Monroe a few games later, and it wasn't because he reminded them of Walter Jones.

    NBA 2k14

    Trav, you ballin? I d/l'ed it yesterday but haven't had time to play. I almost didn't buy it after the Kings/Seattle fiasco, but I figure this will be the one way I give a $*@( about anything NBA related. I'm leaning towards the clearly tanking 76ers for my first franchise.

    What if we had resigned Matt Hasselbeck?

    I'm almost certain Matt would've ended up on IR that season. More than that, I doubt we would have had the defense or running game that we had with TJack. Matt's inability to get the ball downfield would have limited the run game by putting safeties in the box, and he wouldn't have been able...

    Russell Wilson says a bad word :\

    Just a glitch in his code. I'm sure they'll release an update later this week to fix his profanity filter.
