cheers!
Nice! Looking forward to more of this in the next weeks.
a lot of those "fans" came out of the woodwork after the superbowl win. winning does that. ticket prices had skyrocketed, pricing many younger fans and families out of the games. seahawk games became the "hot" ticket, like something for casuals to show off to their friends. the casuals, fairweathers and even non-fans bought those tickets right up, and it changed the atmosphere of the game. lots of these guys that bought the tickets not only didn't know the rules of football, but didn't know the obvious unwritten rules of our home games: ie, be loud as f*ck when our D is on the field. those guys would just sit quietly in their seats all game long, looking at rowdy fans like they were crazy.
The bold.. i think nails it and why Russ is in denver imo. No brand, no "why not me" movement, its about TEAMWORK. and Pete wants people who will not just buy into the culture or mantra, but into the TEAM.In an interview published by Yahoo, Pete talks about how much the win meant to the former players attending the game: Sherman, Avril, Lynch, KJ. and Baldwin.
"We have a real connection to the history....They feel it and they love the fact that they played here and they love seeing us do well. On this night, they realized there was a big opportunity and a big statement to be made. The game isn’t about an individual player here or there. It’s about team. This is the ultimate team sport and it’s been stated so many times before. It takes everybody."
I think the quote from our former QB saying that he wanted to go to a city where he didn't have to carry the team was noted.
Pete Carroll: Win over Russell Wilson was “really rewarding” for former Seahawks attending game
Monday night’s win was big for the current Seahawks players. It was also big, apparently, for certain former Seahawks players who attended Russell Wilson‘s return. Appearing Tuesday on 710 ESPN Radio in Seattle, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll was asked whether the 17-16 victory was “validating.”...www.yahoo.com
Bailed out my ass. Even if they go for it on 4th down, no guarantee Russ converts there.
The look on Pete's face says it all.
I guess.
cope.
He did, badly. He's a rookie HC in his 1st game. New Coach, New QB, New DC, starters didn't play in the pre-season.
and? most of us are expecting between 3-8 wins at best... so you're not saying anything. we're in rebuild mode. hello?
More annoying is the posters crying about posters not sharing the same opinion is them.
