    Glad the 49ers took the bait

    Pretty sure NBC isn't free in Chesterfield, (given that it's not free here in Bournemouth).

    Should Seattle lose tonight

    After Week 6 the probability order for making the last 2 NFC playoff spots was Saints, Vikings, 49ers, Seahawks, Eagles. If the Seahawks can get a win tonight it will be a very good week for them. Losing would put the Saints firmly in the #6 seed and it would be an uphill battle for the Seahawks...

    IF we go into rebuild mode (hypothetical immediate moves)

    Lockett could be traded if you really wanted to do that. He's due $16M next year which is fully guaranteed. Moving him would accelerate $11.4M of dead money. It wouldn't be an immediate increase of $4.6M in cap space because the Seahawks are only scheduling to account for $6.25M of Lockett's...

    Ok, straight up Wilson For Carr.??

    Threads like this one and posters creating them with impunity are what kills forums.

    Doubt Us. I Love It.

    A little off-topic but on a similarly positive note - footballoutsiders.com are still believers in the Seahawks 2021 playoff chances: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/nfl/playoff-odds Estimates as of October 19 2021 for anyone interested. I think 25% is a bit high, but good luck...

    Analytics and Football. Convince me please

    I don't want to get into an argument of how much less likely you'd be to convert a 2nd 2 point conversion because obviously there's a drop-off between your best 'secret play' and the 2nd best, etc. The analytics say: Part 1: If the average chance of kicking the XP is 100% and each team has an...

    Poll

    I can confirm @Fade's point about only trading picks for the next 3 Drafts. Another point is that 1st round picks differ greatly in value. The Giants pick in 2021 is likely to be in the top 5 and be worth between 2.2 and 2.7 times as much as a Wild-card loser's 1st round pick, depending on...

    Analytics and Football. Convince me please

    You should be looking for every legal way to improve your chances of winning. If analytics help you to do that then embrace them. If they don't then don't. For the most part analytics help you make decisions in very specific scenarios. For example the Eagles were down 14 points late in the 4th...

    Jacob Eason claimed off waivers by Seahawks

    I saw Eason's name on the waiver wire yesterday and I wondered if the Seahawks would be interested. I read the team rag report saying he had started preseason as the back-up but had fallen to #4 on the depth chart. Supposedly the Colts still wanted him back on their PS. I think this move might...

    Surprise/familiar name/interesting cuts around the league

    Forrest Lamp is back from injury settlement. He has signed for the Saints practise squad.

    Pete Carroll: Seahawks reached out to Cam Newton

    Personally I hope Smith can keep the Seahawks competitive until Wilson comes back. I'm not sure Newton is the answer but it's hard to see Smith and Etling being the answer to anything. It's a tough spot for the Seahawks. Either upgrading the QB position or dumping salary would make sense...

    DK is taking a lot of crap today

    Metcalf's decision not to step out-of-bounds denied his team 2 free chances to win the game. It very nearly denied the team a chance to go to OT. I'm surprised anyone is trying to support him.

    Jon Gruden is Available...

    First football fans on the Moon: "Let's cut down some trees and start a fire".

    Geno is such a joke

    Good luck getting a better veteran QB for $1.2M.

    Are Cardinals Headed for slide?

    The Cardinals defense is really good. I still think they'll struggle if/when they meet a really good defense because plus they seem to have a lot of ball exchange issues.

    If you could choose

    This won't be popular but I could see Wilson going to the Giants for Jones and picks.

    If you could choose

    Rodgers and Watson will be available for trade. Carr and Garoppolo may well be FAs. Great time to sell low, especially since Wilson has the final say.

    Commitment

    He's on IR now...but he's still committed, right? ;)

    Wilson and Carson to IR

    I hope he recovers, fully and quickly.

    The 49ers Really Botched The QB Spot This Year

    He may be a greater rushing threat in the pistol but his weakness as a passer diminishes that rushing threat, (as demonstrated towards the end of the Cardinals game). The 49ers should be taking away his scrambling safety blanket and forcing him to develop as a passer. Obviously this should be...
