Would've loved to get Robert Quinn from the Dolphins for a 6th rd pick this past off season.

Wonder why the Seahawks weren't interested with the pass rush being such a glaring need?
They misjudged the level on talent their DL has???

They didn't have Clowney or Ansah at that point but they did still have Clark with Greene, Jackson, Mingo, Martin and an unknown future draft pick. Can't see how they'd feel good about any DE other than Clark.

Clowney and Quinn are both near the top of the league in double teams this season. Could've been great to get both for so cheap even though Quinn is somewhat of a liability against the run.

Maybe he needs more recovery time? Give Collier more snaps, and let Ziggy get his legs under him, and his weight back up. You always hear about players losing weight during the season.

I've heard them on 710 say that Ziggy looks underweight, or smaller compared to last year.

Rob Staton suggested that Ansah may be the Eddie Lacy of d-linemen. Ouch

Better than being the Boone Stutz of journalists.

The thing is no one knows how old he is. He could be 30 he could be 40.

He has always been a one-trick pony speed rush DE and to me, he looks like a washed-up 34-year-old DE with no speed.

Pete basically said Ziggy was 10 pounds under his normal playing weight in his press conference. I’m not sure why they wouldn’t rest him if that’s really the case. I guess maybe they think Ziggy at 70% is a better option than the guys behind him.
