    How do you feel about ET3 today?

    I had trouble with the "bitter/hurt" wording so had to choose "unsure". Earl ruined things with the middle finger to the fans and Pete. Earl was a great player in his prime and will always be remembered for being a key part of the SB48 Super Bowl team. I'm more "indifferent" to Earl than...

    Odd encounters/interactions with Seahawks players

    Trent Dilfer... the only Super-Bowl-Winning quarterback to be CUT by his team the following training camp. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/trent-dilfer-bitterness-ravens-super-bowl-xxxv (Elvis) Grbac would join the (Ravens) team the next season and would get bounced out of the playoffs in the...

    Tom Brady hating on Darnold

    Kurt Warner has done some QB evaluation/breakdowns that I consider to be superb. If Denver had simply watched his breakdown on Russell Wilson, they wouldn't have opened the vault for him for $250M. Warner was spot-on. Was there an article somewhere with Brady's actual thoughts/a breakdown of...

    Odd encounters/interactions with Seahawks players

    Who knew there would be stories here about mating with Ken Hamlin and getting piped out? Or was it mating with Russell Wilson and having to sign an NDA before getting piped out? Anyway, sometime in the 80's, I was in the Pacific West Health Club in Lacey, WA. (Later became "Bally's Pacific...

    How fast will Zabel adapt?

    Yes, but while playing all five O-Line positions at the same time, Zabel will have to play Center, because *someone* has to snap the ball. Here's a sneak preview of what it will look like with Zabel playing all 5 positions:

    Why Do We Care?

    Consider it done! I often share your posts with JS and MM during our weekly zoom meetings, and JS's usual reaction is to rub his beard stubble and chin, then move his hand up and slap his forehead and say, "Wish I'd thought of that! Who is this Toffee guy anyway, some sort of ex-GM ringer...

    WR Gabe Davis?

    Gabe Davis seems to show up in the playoffs, IIRC he had multiple playoff games of multiple TDs in a recent year. He's a good #3 or #4 receiver, and Josh Allen went his direction when the primary options were taken away. So, yes, flashes of greatness, with long disappearances sounds about right.

    Why Do We Care?

    What with the weekly zoom meeting I have with JS and MM, and all the absolute truth they drop in those sessions, and in their other media appearances, I have no need of ignorant outside media opinions. I was pleasantly surprised a year+ ago when JS took my advice and hired MM, a defensive coach...

    Craziest Seahawks stat ever?

    Hawks actually went 1-1 against KC that year! One thing I remember from those AFC West days is it seemed the Chiefs always had an O-Line that bullied and pushed around the undersized Hawks D, but maybe I'm just remembering the Christian Okoye years, they were a "Nightmare" for the Hawks.

    Pete says he left to give John his opportunity

    Yup, of course Pete's going to put the most positive spin on his exit. That's who he is! I thought the Ashton Jeanty pick was a great move by Pete and the Raiders. We will find out... Would you draft Barry Sanders at #6? It's possible Jeanty could have almost a Sanders-type impact, in a...

    CONTEST ( this season) ????

    How about the LAST defensive or Special Teams player to score a TD? Let's say I choose Julian Love, and, sure enough, in game 15, he returns an INT for a TD in a win over the 49ers. So I'm feeling pretty good about winning. Then, the Hawks start using Jalen Milroe as a punt returner. Toffee...

    Hankins is back

    Somehow he (Brendon Nelson) keeps popping up in my YT feed, so sometimes I'll watch a few minutes. Yeah, not exactly a peppy personality, and has a nasal voice, but whatever, at least it's Seahawks content. His reaction to the Jalen Milroe pick was amusing, not exactly enthusiastic. Didn't...

    Sam Howell traded to Vikings

    I expect a couple of our O-Linemen will take a step forward in the new scheme and new coaching. Bradford, Haynes, Olu, Laumea, Sundell. Plus maybe a healthy Abe Lucas for more games this year. If Zabel balls out, and Cross and Lucas stay healthy, and just 2 of those 5 returning OL (that I...

    Milroe. 6 out of 10.

    Pick 92: Jalen Milroe

    Alright folks, this is crunch time, for the division. 3 minutes left in the 4th, 3rd and 1 at the Rams 45, Seattle down by 3, in at quarterback, Jalen Milroe? Milroe takes the snap, gives to Charbonnet over right guard, the Rams defensive line has it bottled up... Wait, Milroe kept it, can he...

    Pick 35: Nick Emmanwori

    I'll take it! Shades of Kam Chancellor with that size. Now off to check his highlights!

    50 and 52 for .... ?

    Positively psychic! Nick Emmanwari, or however it's spelled, a DB who brings up visions of Kam Chancellor with his size.

    Pick 18: Grey Zabel

    The bolded part is classic!

    Everyone KNEW he was going to be good, and he WAS

    I had read a couple pre-draft profiles that pegged him as the most likely QB to be a starter during his rookie year. So "everyone" knew he'd be great, lol. Probably both articles by the same writer. He was the one player I was hoping for in that draft. Others projected 5th round or maybe even...
