    The Official Trade Russell Wilson Thread.

    I’ll play contrarian. I don’t subscribe to the notion that trading Russ is a good idea. Don’t get me wrong, his play during the second half of the season, and especially tonight, has made me sick to my stomach, but I think the result is an output of a few key things: 1. Our o-line is slow, and...

    Defense may be turning the corner!

    Really liked what the defense showed us last night - even more encouraging that it was able to do what it did without Shaq and Dunbar. Still saw some communication breakdowns, but not to the same extent that we had seen in prior weeks. I know that this has been a major topic this year when it...

    Wonder if Russell had a concussion or something today?

    I’ve been trying wrap my head around where things really changed for Russ, because clearly something is off. I don’t know if it’s personal stuff outside of football, if it’s the fear of taking a shot (or multiple shots), or just overcompensating for other areas of our team that are lagging -...

    Has Jamal Adams been a *gulp* disappointment?

    Great point. Our current scheme is predicated on the deep middle safety. We built the LOB around Earl Thomas. But Quandre isn’t Earl and the LOB is no more. I’d love to see a pivot towards what Pittsburgh and Baltimore run on defense. Super physical, smaller and more aggressive man-coverage...

    Has Jamal Adams been a *gulp* disappointment?

    I'm on the fence. I love the guy, but it's hard for me to be too excited about somebody who lacks the versatility to disrupt down in the box, AND in coverage. And frankly, being versatile is critical for the safety position, especially for a box safety (see: Kam Chancellor, Derwin James). Don't...

    Last RB to play in all 16 games

    I could be wrong, but I think it was 2013 Beastmode, no? RB is a tough position. I just don’t think it’s viable to have one feature bellcow and expect them to play 16 year after year. It’s why the RB by committee has become so popular, and frankly, I really like the committee we have - it’s...

    Did We Flat Out Underestimate The Bills?

    The Bills are a complete team, and if Pete and co. formed their opinion and strategy based on Buffalo’s losses, then they are incredibly naive. Buffalo has one of the leagues best defenses, albeit playing below their talent level until recently. Buffalo’s offense has been white hot most of the...

    Wish we had that 1st quarter back

    It’s unfortunate that we came out as flat as we did. Seems like the defense found a rhythm in the second half, but first quarter gaffes really killed us, and our offense couldn’t make up for it. This is one we could’ve had - I’m just happy we’re coming out of it without major injuries, as far as...

    Would you trade Jaren Reed for JJ Watt?

    To the points made above, Jarran Reed's 10.5 sack season was Frank Clark's final year with the team (2018). I think a case can be made that Jarran's production was thanks to the pressure created by Clark. I would trade Reed for JJ yesterday, especially with the addition of Snacks.

    Dunlap traded to Seattle

    If we go for Dunlap, I hope we also go for a Matthews/Suggs type, as I think it’s critical to have depth when targeting DE’s over 28/29 years old. Injuries happen, but I think with the potential SB window we have, we must hedge with the vets.

    JJ Watt

    Lol, I promise completely coincidental, although I’d love to be making some Adam Schefter money. I’ve browsed .Net for a long time - never really got involved with discussions online about the hawks until recently on Twitter. Sunday’s loss broke the camels back. Needed an outlet because my wife...

    JJ Watt

    Sorry if double post. Saw this on Twitter...not sure of this guy’s credibility. Would be sweet to see JJ on the hawks. https://twitter.com/siryacht/status/132 ... 57506?s=21

    Trades needed to be done this week

    Would be awesome if we made a push for a package deal with the Bengals where we get William Jackson (CB) and Carlos Dunlap (DE). Former, in my mind, would be costlier than the latter, but nonetheless we’d get quality CB and DLine help. Someone floated a JJ watt trade yesterday. Could you...
