    Lj collier says he didn’t fit into the bustling Seattle culture

    He didn't buy in. On to the next guy.

    Trade Jamal Adams?

    Squeeze every last drop of juice out of that lemon, ride out his current contract, and then send him on his way. He will be completely out of the league within four years, probably two years sooner than that, but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

    LB vs DE

    I guess I'm really dating myself with this one, but in my playing days, the terms were weakside linebacker (now called Will) and strongside linebacker (now called Sam). I was a weakside linebacker and always lined up on the opposite side of the tight end. I was lighter and quicker than the...

    LB vs DE

    3-4 verse 4-3 verse nickel verse dime verse short yardage. Each formation comes with its own terminology, references, and personnel responsibilities, yet there is still considerable overlap. It really doesn't really matter how the positions are labeled; it is more about who is responsible for...

    Battle for RG?

    Bradford is a run game mauler that isn't ready for prime-time pass blocking. Less of a technique issue related to the blocking itself, it is more of an issue with familiarity and continuity with teammates. He will get there in reasonable time. He just needs to put in the reps. For now, he should...

    PFF Evals from Preseaon Game 1

    Lock was terrific. Coby Bryant is learning a new position. Such a small sample size is deceiving. The representative sample includes the coaches watching practice every day and then reviewing video of the practice every night.

    Breda Report: The More Things Change..

    The only thing you can take for granted is inevitable change. In other words, appreciate the moment. Appreciate the journey.

    K9 returns to the lineup!!!

    The ceiling on this kid is through the roof. Almost Adrian Peterson level. Of course, AP knocked it out of the park his rookie year, so I have to qualify my statement with the "almost" part. I would not be surprised at all if K9 breaks out into super stardom this year. He has that type of...

    Seahawks add Ra'Shaun Henry, WR

    A camp body. You need the right number of folks or you wear down your players in preseason.

    After the first game

    "X's and O's". An "under the hood" look at camp fodder. I'm not going to take the "let's talk about examining the tendencies of impending roster cuts" bait. Examining the technique of camp bodies isn't an exercise worth ringing the alarm bell for. Even Vince Lombardi couldn't coach up an UDFA...

    Our "game speed" duo, Bobo and McIntosh

    Seattle is very deep at tight end. They already have three experienced Bobos. And yes, I'm suggesting that his best shot would be with a position switch. A sort of hybrid WR/TE. The next question is how consistently effective is his blocking? Get on the practice squad, make the position switch...

    After the first game

    Here is exhibit A of what I have been warning about for the past month. For the first couple of regular season games, .NET will have its hair on fire about the defense. Here we are, after watching roughly 7-8 defensive players that will be lucky to make the practice squad, and it has already...

    After the first game

    Yep Aros, I really, really liked Lock. You can't ask for a better backup situation. I think he enjoys a long NFL career. If not here, then somewhere.

    After the first game

    Too many new faces on defense. You will see during the first meaningful game. It is going to take time for them to gel against the run game. Don't panic. They will get up to snuff in time for a great season. I think Bobo gets waived when Eskridge comes back from his suspension. If he makes the...

    Our "game speed" duo, Bobo and McIntosh

    I like Landers and I really like Lock as the backup.

    Camp news

    The defense is likely going to play assigned gaps instead of "two gapping". To play two gaps, you need oversized, strong men that can routinely disengage from blocks at the point of attack and quickly close within a short area. Seattle is conversely loaded up on lighter, quicker guys (Mario...

    Our "game speed" duo, Bobo and McIntosh

    McIntosh = Lock I would bet he has a better chance to make the team than many other players including some veterans. Reason 1) He is cheap Reason 2) He is good Reason 3) He has Chris Carson speed (Good enough) Bobo has a chance to make the 53 until Eskridge is eligible. Not a lock.

    Guess the Primary Punt Returner

    JSN for two reasons. Carroll has a history of playing young, ascending stars on special teams, especially as a returner. Carroll values possession more than any other football philosophy. From the fore-mentioned group, JSN is the most natural fit at it. The best combination of hands and...

    Kenny McIntosh sprains knee in mock game

    Your victimhood is cringeworthy.

    Kenny McIntosh sprains knee in mock game

    I'll take it a step further. Even if Seattle historically kept only three running backs, this year they would make an exception, MAKE ROOM for four RB just to keep McIntosh.
