    Seahawks @ Falcons - week 1

    First game of the season. Falcons do what they do, score if they can. Seahawks do what they do, tread water for three and a half quarters. Close game determined by a turnover, penalty or big play.

    Insider says faster offense coming

    Believe it when I see it.

    How old is everyone on here?

    Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York 1969. Seahawks got on my radar in the 80s. Difficult to follow the team back then. New York was all about the Mets, Yankees, Jets (New York Sack Exchange) and Parcell's Giants. I remember scouring the sports section of the newspapers every Monday for any...

    1st Round - 27th pick Jordyn Brooks LB Texas Tech

    Good vision. Quickly diagnoses the play. Solid tackler. Fast sideline to sideline tackler. Bobby Wagner padawan? I didn't see him fight through or shed many blocks--probably because he's quick to diagnose a play. I'll take him. LB corps showing it's age the past two seasons, so it makes sense...

    Why is offense the focus for so many?

    But Kiwi, they need a whole half of football to test the defense or see tendencies? I thought that's what watching film was for. I don't discount strategy, but this team looks outright lost on offense for 2 to 3 quarters. How can New England have a game plan to attack defenses from the...

    Remember when we had a great defense?

    Just the hype and excitement. The pandemic has cast such a pall over everything. It was fun downloading the latest custom rosters for Madden that included the latest additions and subtractions from free agency and the draft. Then see how it would play out in the game--sh@%ts and giggles. It was...

    We have arguably the top QB in NFC - The time is now

    Pete wants to reduce the game to it's most basic elements; execution, talent and physicality. These are things he could bank on in college but not so much in the NFL thanks to the salary cap. Honestly, the ability to out scheme their opponent or adjust is something that seems lost on most...

    Remember when we had a great defense?

    That's going to be very difficult considering many teams are using "that" defense as a template for their own team. How many times have we heard comparisons to Sherman, Earl and Kam? Everyone is looking for their version of the LOB--or at least one part of it (Earl Thomas). I'm surprised Pete...

    Remember when we had a great defense?

    That defense was such an anomaly that I don't think we will see that again from the Seahawks. Seahawks are playing the same game as the majority of the teams in the league; roll the dice in the draft and get lucky enough to build a highly talented rosters, with a few diamonds here and there--IF...

    We have arguably the top QB in NFC - The time is now

    I think the biggest concern with the slow starts is that you basically dig yourself a hole and now have to play against the defense and the dwindling clock. It is agonizingly frustrating to watch a whole half of football and the team does nothing. Then in the second half, watch them claw their...

    We have arguably the top QB in NFC - The time is now

    I can see Russ with at least 1 more SB ring. A third is possible but too many things have to go right for the Seahawks in a very tough NFC. We will need a few teams to "fall down" or "stumble" in the upcoming seasons for Russ to get more than 2 rings.

    What is our Super Bowl window?

    Our Super Bowl window depends on how good or bad we will be in comparison to the other teams at the moment. Rams: we are better than the Rams--do they get better or continue to fall. Was it just the SB hangover? Niners: contenders. We can hang with them, but there is a talent gap on defense...

    What is really important to foster the .Net community

    A new or long time Seahawks fan is looking for a place to get news, vent and just talk Seahawks football in general. He does a search and finds .Net. He decides to read some of the threads....... ......what do you think is his first impression? Do you think he or she wants to join after that...

    Pete Carroll: Russell Wilson shared wishes for more up-tempo

    Not to be a negative Nancy, but I'll believe it when I see it.

    Is Mahomes better than Wilson?

    Agreed. Not knocking Mahomes, but let's see how well he does when the talent around him falls off. Can he carry a less than spectacular offensive roster with an average o-line? That said, I don't follow the Chiefs to know how good he is at reading defenses, etc.compared to Russell....

    Vent your frustrations here

    I have come to realize that the Seahawks are basically Russell Wilson, Bobby Wagner, K.J. Wright, Jadaveon Clooney, Tyler Lockett, D.K. Metcalf and a bunch of JAGs. There is a serious lack of REAL talent on this team. What the hell did P&J see in these guys. They're slow, lack physicality and...

    The Hawks Would Win A Lot More Games IF . . . (you finish)

    :2thumbs: With your explanation in mind I can understand why Garapopolis had a hard time against us the first game. Clowney wasn't giving him time to wait for routes to develop. It also explains his interception problems at the start of the year. The quarterback must be precise with his throws...

    The Hawks Would Win A Lot More Games IF . . . (you finish)

    Basically, this. I get wanting to keep things simple for the players so they can think less and play faster, but come on....... The NFL is all about coaching, schemes and match-ups. I swear our offense and defense looks so generic and confounded at times. Just once i'd like us to have a...
