    I’m all for a tank job this season

    Everyone that's on board with a "Tank for Top 5" pick is delusional. That pick would be guaranteed to be swapped for a late 1st and a 2nd, then the late 1st would turn in to 2 more 2nds or a 2nd and a 3rd and a rousing hip hip hooray! So maybe change your motto to "Tank for Tu Tu's and a Tree"?

    The defense

    Well that's truly disheartening. Scoring 24 points a game for the season would put you just outside the top 10 in scoring offense in the last 10 years. On the other hand, 27 a game given up would put you in the bottom 5 for points against in the last decade. If we need to score 28 a game...

    .SI Article....The turmoil in Seattle..any truth?

    *Shrug* That article was written (metaphorically) and sitting on an editors desk for years. None of it is all that surprising, really. With as big a group of guys as it takes to put together a football team, there will always be a spectrum of personalities, from mature and accountable all the...

    Concerning our desire for more "Traditional Play" @ QB

    This is a pretty nice and concise summation of my rambling. We need to PLAN his movement instead of the defense dictating to us. If I'm a D Coordinator, it's immensely more profitable for me to know where the QB will be instead of gameplanning for one of a number of options. We need to put a...

    Concerning our desire for more "Traditional Play" @ QB

    I stole this quote from another thread, which got my brain gears turning, and as I continued to ramble, I realized maybe I was off topic in the original thread so I moved to create a new thread. Hope you don't mind the quote grab Spin Doctor. Read it all, but this is an extremely concise...

    REPORT: Darrell Bevell Fired

    While I have advocated for change, this will all be for naught if we don't find a guy that can help Wilson grow. My biggest concern has been that Wilson has in some respects stagnated as a developing Elite player, and I hope a fresh Offensive mind can come in and kickstart his growth as a...

    You guys need to take a breath

    Don't tell us what to do Ramfan! You may have been fine with picking top 10 in every draft for the last eleventy-two years to complete your "borderline miraculous" rebuild but we aren't down with that... :17:

    Benoit on the Double Edged Sword that is Russell Wilson

    Decent points Montana, but I picked this one out because it's wagging the dog. "Well, My Opal is better than your Ferrari because you could blow your engine at any moment." Your argument above is exactly what the naysayers use to discredit Wilsons contribution with his legs. Let's take it at...

    Benoit on the Double Edged Sword that is Russell Wilson

    Now, with all my "sticking up for the little guy" talk, I do think Wilson could improve his consistency. 1) He occasionally stays on the back foot when he doesn't have to (High balls) 2) He occasionally puts too much under the ball (on deep passes) causing some underthrows (closely related...

    Benoit on the Double Edged Sword that is Russell Wilson

    Sounds fair. What else would be fair would be to include Willies rushing stats, but invariably, Russ is only compared to other QB's in passing stats, especially from naysayer types (the Priscos of the world). The reason? Because very few to none play QB the way Russ does and it hurts their...

    Benoit on the Double Edged Sword that is Russell Wilson

    Just as a point, I wouldn't use some form of sack rate to prove something about a guy who's the best in the league at escaping them. Maybe pressure rate or something.

    Benoit on the Double Edged Sword that is Russell Wilson

    The simple answer for why coaches would take an inferior player over an unorthodox one is because they don't know how to coach the unique talent. Coaching knowledge is passed down, generation to generation, copied and recopied, with minor tweaks considered innovative and ground breaking...

    Best Seahawks game of the 1970's

    To the doomers and the optimists:

    I disagree. Some of us do a much better job of washing than others. I'm not admitting to which camp I fall into. :180670:

    **BREAKING NEWS** No suspensions.......somehow!

    Piledriving an unaware/unprepared person laying flat on his back (that actually did cause injury) is the lesser offense. Not only lesser but "much" even. :34853_doh: Just when I think you've finally gained control of your agenda monster, out of the depths he springs.... What a ridiculous...

    **BREAKING NEWS** No suspensions.......somehow!

    It's interesting that in our rush to R, we assume it could have only been uttered by one demographic, when the only acceptable use case for that word anymore belongs to the other demographic(ridiculous, in my opinion). The conditioning is almost complete.

    Dear Pete: I no longer enjoy the team you put on the field.

    Don't get me wrong, I was actively working out how I could make it down there in time to throat punch one of those punk fans or even a few of the Jax players I thought were chumping it up. It's that internal war with self control that football teaches better than any other sport. It's why I...
