    Want To Attend Seahawks Games in 2021? Get Vaccinated

    Wow. There is so much disinformation in this thread, it's unbelievable. One data point. Every single person at my job and every single person in my family and every single person in my extended family and every single person in every family that my family has contact with has been vaccinated...

    Injuries

    I'm wondering if they'll go offer Luke Willson a spot on the roster. (he's on the Ravens practice squad, so I think to sign him we'd have to offer an actual roster spot) Even without doing that we're pretty deep at TE and that's the one area we could really afford to have a starter go down...

    Camps to OPEN

    Actually what is happening is the players all have to report. It's pretty likely that they'll report and then the NFLPA will tell the NFL that there isn't adequate testing or safety protocols in place and the players will have very limited small group workouts for a while until things get...

    72 NFL players tested positive for COVID-19

    Yeah, but the European countries have coherent strategies in place involving testing, contact tracing, and mask wearing. The United States is failing miserably at all three!

    72 NFL players tested positive for COVID-19

    2.5 percent is high and suggests that everyone in the league will get sick if they push forward with a season. Talk to the people with blood clots... I know someone that lost their sense of smell, most of their sense of taste, and has inexplicable tingling in their legs from time to time...

    Quick Question

    If no games are played, then they are not paid, and it doesn't count as a season. That's my understanding from the CBA. Of course, the owners and players could come to any mutually agreed upon arrangement instead, but there you go. CBA also says if they play one game, everyone gets paid...

    Note To Season Ticket Holders

    Side note, if you choose #1 you forfeit any chance at getting 2020 tickets if they come available. It's a bit obnoxious but the same thing the 49ers did. The Ravens by contrast allow an immediate refund, or credit to next year, and if they end up offering tickets later, they'll do it in some...

    Note To Season Ticket Holders

    The owners are asking the players to take pay cuts if there are no fans. I think the players will balk and that may make the MLB disagreements look like child's play by comparison. If they can come to some arrangement, great, there might be football, but I could see it being drawn out. The...

    Covid-19 Helmets

    Right, except an NFL team has 53 on the primary roster, a practice squad, plus guys rehabbing. This time of year that's about 90 guys. Add support staff, and we're talking easily 150 people at the VMAC on a given practice day. UFC events involve a few dozen people, at most, and training can...

    Study says CenturyLink Field is one of the most dangerous

    FedEx Field is HORRIBLE and several players have had career ending injuries there particularly later in the year i.e. Thanksgiving or later. I don't need to read the article to know it's pure BS if they claim FedEx Field is safer than CenturyLink for players.

    No Fans? No Football.

    I've been told repeatedly by the customer service folks that there will be refunds for games that are cancelled or that fans cannot attend. From a different team, college, also American football, I was shown a diagram of a major stadium with six foot distancing. It had groups of fours and...

    Bold Corona 19 Pandemic Way Too Early Preseason Predictions

    I don't think there are NFL games this year. I think that the south and midwest have massive spikes of infection rates because of loosening restrictions, and that it's impossible for teams to travel and play one another. The prediction above may seem pessimistic, but as an optimist, I also...

    Any news on live attendance at games?

    Yeah, on that latter point, the Seahawks would really be between a rock and a hard place if they tried to force people to go to games... i.e. didn't cancel the events even though they might be dangerous. It would be impossible to sell tickets to others and would basically be a giant FU to the...

    We’re running the table, and here’s why:

    I have to say while I do not share the confidence, I agree with the theory. Pete and John play young players early in the season. It can be rocky, but it creates a lot of player development, especially in this era of the NFL when full contact practices are rare. Those young players get more...

    Get Ready for PrimeTime Football Month!

    I'll be kind of surprised if neither of the Sunday games are flexed. Seahawks at Eagles when they are 4-4, and Seahawks at Rams which has limited interest outside the West coast. I won't predict what will happen but I think it's unlikely that we play four prime time games in a row. (Obviously...

    Why the Flurry of Trades this Year

    Let's also be frank about the recent trade. Giving the Lions a 5th and getting back a 7th is not super meaningful. The Seahawks have hit on several 7th round picks, and have only done slightly better with 5th round picks as a rule. Most of what we had to do for this trade was take on salary...

    Coach

    Dear unholy god. Please get this guy some medication. As someone who has personally attended every regular season game and postseason game here in Seattle for over 21 years, I can assure you this isn't the worst team in the last 21 years, much less 30+. It's not even remotely up for...
