    Sam and the Ghosts

    Naw, not next year. 2027. Darnold on his current contract is the best value the Seahawks are going to get for 2026. As long as the team is realistic about his limitations, he can be a great value for this season and next season. I was upset when the Seahawks signed Darnold, but he's been...

    Right, but counting on Darnold to win big games or to be a franchise QB is like trying to use your Civic for a polar expedition, or to win a Formula-1 race, or to haul several tons of cargo. And if you do that kind of crap, your Civic absolutely will leave you stranded in a jam. I was upset...

    Folks, you aren't going to get a quarterback smart enough to run the offense at NFL speed as a free agent on what's basically a two-year, $65M deal. Darnold is a pretty good value considering how the Seahawks got him and how much he costs for this season and next season. He's not a top QB...

    Ugh...

    Unfortunately, the Seahawks' top turnover expert plays on offense, not defense. And the defense got trucked on first down by a wide receiver.

    Ah, defense

    4 INTs

    Darnover has been good enough this season that I actually wouldn't mind the Seahawks keeping him on his current contract. He's a pretty good value at that price. What has terrified me this season is fear of the Seahawks getting excited about a good record this season and signing Darnold to a...

    HOF'ers That You Have Shook Hands With

    I have some "almosts," and I don't remember the one that might actually count. I got autographs from Franco Harris after the Seahawks game in Foxborough in September of '84 and from Largent after either that game or the one two years later in the same place. I probably didn't shake their...

    If the time comes in GB, Will John Interview with the Packers?

    I realized George Halas did something close: he built completely distinct NFL-champion rosters (no players in common), but they were all with the same franchise. Y'know, the one he owned.

    If the time comes in GB, Will John Interview with the Packers?

    I can think of examples from baseball with ease. Theo Epstein came to mind first, then Branch Rickey (who basically invented the GM position, among multiple other impressive accomplishments), then Dave Dombrowski. I'm sure there are others, because I thought of those three within 30 seconds...

    Could Zabel be one of the most impactful rookies in Hawks history?

    The first time I went to a Seahawks game was in September of '84 in Foxborough. Curt Warner was on the cover of the game program (Gameday magazine), and there was a big article about him in there, because there was no way to print new programs with different content after Warner got injured...

    The most defining regular season Seahawk games

    After the Seahawks beat the Broncos in the wildcard game, my dad sat me down for a little talk about how great the Seahawks' season had been and how great the future looked for the team, but that the Dolphins were one of the best teams in the league, and they would playing at home in the...

    Listening to Troy Aikman…

    I'd rather watch the game muted than have to endure Troy Aikman and Joe (dum)B(f)uck. $#!+, I 'd rather watch the game with the narration in Brazilian Portuguese, which is a pretty-awful option NFL Game Pass gives me because it can tell from my IP address that I'm in Brazil. The idiots they...

    Russell Wilson sightings

    Just $29,970 per hour (marked down from $30,000). I wonder if anyone is enough of a troll to spend $333 to ask him to record exactly the lines from those creepy Dangerwich commercials. Or word-for-word some of his affirmations from spring and summer of 2022 about his plans to win three or...

    I wonder what Efren Herrera and Curt Warner are doing. I think we could probably get Zorn and Largent back too. Jacob Green, please pick up a white courtesy telephone.

    The most defining regular season Seahawk games

    For me personally, October 30, 1977 against the Bills. And I didn't even see the game. It was just the second year of the Seahawks being an NFL team and me being a Seahawks fan. I grew up in Maine and it was the 1970s, so the Seahawks game not being on was a pretty common occurrence. I...

    Seahawks Trade for NO WR Rashid Shaheed

    The Seahawks have close to $80M in cap space for next season, only 40 players under contract for 2026, and only four 2026 draft picks, so there will have to be free-agent signings to fill out the roster, so there ain't gonna be any comp picks. I think getting a wide receiver was a really good...
