    I hate how close the NFC West is this year

    Thanks, I should have said so but I think if we beat the Rams the most likely result is it goes down to common opponents or SoS. The Rams still have to play the Cards home and away, which you would expect them to win but they could lose one, I think we would be favorites to beat the 49ers but...

    I hate how close the NFC West is this year

    The talking heads all prediceted the NFC West was a shootout between the Rams nad the 49ers with us fighting the Cards for 3rd place. Just be glad we are in the mix. By the way if we beat the Rams at home and we both finish with the same record who is likely to win the tie break?

    Great WRs in Seahawks History

    I am taking greatness to be based on abilty. To become a great take time. Largent stands head and shoulders above other Seahawks WR in greatness, he was the star of out team for a decade and twice led the league in passing yards. I love Doug, a UFA who became our WR1 for 6 years but he never...

    Tier 2 Team

    How many teams are in tier 1? The Rams are playing the best football in the NFL right now and we had a very close game at their place dispite giving them 4 turnovers. Who is the second best team in the NFC? The Eagles just lost to a very mediocre Cowboys team The Packers nearly lost last week...

    NFL.com Rankings Week 10

    This season is wide open. Looking at 9 sets of power rankings I saw 5 different teams ranked 1. (Rams, Bills, Eagles, Colts, and us) and 11 teams have a top 5 rank which much make them a contender in the eyes of the writer. That means that a third of the league could be classed as "contenders"...

    Dolphins

    That is the cap number so includes non guaranteed base salary which is exactly why you get rid of a player. It will be hard to cut him for next season ($99m dead money, -$42m cap savings) but 2027 is an fairly easy out ($32m dead money, $22m cap savings).

    How did Seattle get so lucky to get Darnold?

    Yes I was meaning they liked what they saw in pre season 2024. A team can gain a lot of confidence in a QB between the draft and pre-season. RW3 went from a 3rd punt as a QBOTF to a guy we were confident starting GW1. I agree it was a ton of risk which is why I was surprised they let Darnold go...

    How did Seattle get so lucky to get Darnold?

    I was surprised the Vikings didn't keep Darnold, I assumed McCarthy had done really well in training camp and his in pre season game and they were confident he would do well. It was a risk but having a star QB on a rookie contract goes a long way to making the super bowl. It was also a risk for...

    POLL: Current NET Temp…

    Given we are 1-2 at home and 3-0 away do we want a low seed? :unsure:

    Tyler Locket back with Pete

    I'm guessing he just want to play. I am not sure a contender would sign a guy who can't get to start for the Titans but if he can do some good stuff with the Raiders a contender migfht be interested in signing him next year.

    POLL: Current NET Temp…

    I think there is clear water between the top 7 in the NFC (Lions, Eagles, Packers, Rams, Buccs, us, 49ers) and they will make the play offs. I have put them in the order of my power rankings, though I think there is very little between the Rams the Buccs and ourselves. Once we get totthe...

    Myers replacement? (speculation)

    Agreed he isn't amazing and we are overpaying him. Someone will pay Tucker, if we got him we would have ovewr $10m of cap used on kickers, and I wouldn't like him on our team for character reasons. I am all for cutting Myers at the end of the season.

    ESPN’s Dan Olovsky on the Seahawks…

    I am not convinced we are consistent enough to be called super bowl contenders yet. Last night ball security was a big problem, a team better than the Texans would have punished us for 4 turnovers (5 including the Thomas fumble). This week the defence was awesome but last week we could do...

    NFL TV Viewing Map @ Jaguars

    For the second week running The Seahawks is the blackout game in the UK (The game shown on Sky is blacked out from NFL game pass for 24 hours). Given it is in the early window I doubt I will be able to avoid the result so will probably end up up just watching red zone (the alternatives are to...

    Pete is delusional

    There are exceptions, Brady, Paynton Manning, Brees, Moon and Flutie all played at least as well in their mid to late 30s as at any other time of their career. With Geno having spent most of his career as back up it was a reasonable arguement that he had plenty of miles left on the clock, his...

    Hawk D lacking in "recognizable" players

    To an extent they are right. How many defnsive players in the NFL are "recognisable"? We don't have a Miles Garret or TJ Watt on the team. The most well know Seahawk Defensive players are probably Leonard Williams and Witherspoon but how many fans of other teans would know them? Some of that is...

    Week 5 Power Rankings

    If it's not working but the solution isn't to stop running the ball. The solution is change the run plays so they are more effective at getting positive yards most of the time. If that is not possible things are fine, if the defence sets up to stop the run play action is working great, if the...

    Too much Walker

    I have K9 in my fantasy team and Zach on the bench, looks like I might swap next week. (My opp has JSN so hoping for running TDs).
