    Per Twitter Seahawks are waiving WR Chris Mathews

    I disagree. Matthews was given a shot. That shot is known as "practice". Clearly, the coaches didn't feel like he warranted more playing time or opportunities based on what they saw in practice. I'm fine with us letting go of Matthews. Matthews is just another example of fans falling in love...

    Marshawn.....

    Marshawn is great. Also reminds me of when he wore Chancellor's jersey to practice during his holdout.

    Do you bet on the Seahawks? If you do, do you think...

    No, I don't bet. I used to dabble a little bit, but not anymore. What I don't like about betting is that it kind of taints the experience of watching the game. I just want to watch a game and not worry about inane details. For example, let's say I were to bet on the 49ers/Seahawks game, and I...

    After rewatching end of 3rd quarter/4th quarter tape

    I didn't even reply to you.

    This is not Bevell!

    Do you see the things people say about Darrell Bevell!?!!?!?!? Strangely, no one seems to complain when Bevell is roasted and called every name imaginable.

    After rewatching end of 3rd quarter/4th quarter tape

    If you think Bevell is at fault, then give examples. seahawk12thman had a very strong, detailed, convincing post, with specific examples of why he felt that way. Your response -- which is becoming increasingly common around here lately when anyone responds about our OC -- was just mindlessly...

    The elephant in the room (Graham)

    Yes, you are. Averaging 4.6 yards per carry when the opposing team is bringing in extra help to stop you (Lynch) is not the same as averaging 4.5 yards per carry when the defense is instead allocating those extra resources to blitzing or befuddling Wilson. The Lions didn't focus on stopping...

    Dean Blandino

    Those situations are not remotely comparable. When a punter or a QB bats the ball out of the end zone, their team incurs a safety and the opposition then gets possession of the ball on a safety kick. Conversely, we directly benefited from this act. It's completely different. We won, and that's...

    The loss to the Rams was -

    You're saying you're "not talking about the players and coaches", but that the loss was a good thing because it "[exposed] many weaknesses that are now in the spotlight". Huh!? What difference does it make if the fans know about our weaknesses or not? That doesn't make us a better team or make...

    Beast Mode "alleged" altercation with Fans

    Getting harassed in public is no fun. For someone as famous as Marshawn, this probably happens nearly every time he goes out in public. He's a pretty benevolent guy, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt here.

    The interception fumble.

    Watching it live, I was basically positive this was what happened. Nevermind the fact that the only reason there was a fumble to begin with was because Wilson threw an interception on the play. If you want to be upset about anything, direct your hostility towards that. Complaining about this...

    Did we really just throw the ball to Graham 1 time tonight?

    Oh, god, could you imagine the uproar around here if that actually happened? "Wait, you're telling me that we have one of the league's premier receivers -- a guy who's strength is downfield jump balls -- and we're throwing him bubble screens at the line of scrimmage? Bevell is clueless! He's...

    Rodgers hmm... choice words

    Great summary. I thought it was a funny job at Wilson; let's face it, some of the stuff Wilson says off the field is pretty cringeworthy ("this water helped cure my concussion", "God wanted me to throw 4 interceptions, to make the game winner that much better in the NFCCG", etc...). He's a...

    Patriots blatantly cheating

    Agreed. Tomlin said something like "strange, it happens every time we come here". So it happens "every time" you go there, and you don't have a contingency plan in place? They should be prepared for it and it would be a non-issue. Also, I agree that the Patriots probably didn't do anything this...

    5 Wide no rb in the backfield sets

    You've got to be kidding. The whole point of a formation like this is to stretch the field, creating running lanes and open space. Our mobile quarterback often utilizes those running lanes and that open space. It's not a coincidence, it's just common sense. Bevell is putting Wilson in a...

    Russell Wilson "lobbies" for more no huddle up tempo

    Great post. Maybe if Anthony! gives his blessing on the no-huddle offense I'll be okay with it.

    What a Game! (For those who appreciate football)

    Agreed, it was a wildly entertaining game. Football is only a game, and -- as invested as I am in our team -- I watch it to be entertained. Losing sucks, but it happens. I think close losses are easier to take, because the silver lining is that I was still entertained for three hours, so it...

    Pay Kam

    I agree, it's all about precedent. One can't help but wonder if Kam/Bennett a result of caving* to Lynch last season? If so, it lends credence to the "don't set a precedent" idea. * the front office claims they didn't "cave" to Lynch, that it was an unwritten agreement they had already, etc...

    Rams 'knew' Marshawn Lynch would get ball at end

    Sorry, but I'm not a a "Bevell fan". I just think the impact of an offensive coordinator is overstated by most fans. Ultimately it comes down to the players to execute. I just find it asinine (and humorous) how every fan of every team in football thinks that their offensive coordinator is the...

    Russell Wilson "lobbies" for more no huddle up tempo

    Exactly what I was thinking. If there was a motto or mantra to describe our team -- and I don't mean a generic rah-rah statement out of Carroll like "always compete" or "next man up", I mean a mantra that really reflects what we do -- I think it would be "we will win the battle of attrition"...
