8-8 unless this offense can turn it around and I really don't see the talent there to do it.
Given the kind of offensive line players coming into the NFL currently it's an inferior scheme because it requires 5 guys to be together 4=5 years minimum to really make it work and that just isn't going to happen anymore given the lack of talent at the position league wide. Last year's FA period was just the beginning of the end if something doesn't change concerning practice time and development opportunities.Maelstrom787":wm8pc0w6 said:Josea16":wm8pc0w6 said:Wow, optimistic from where I sit. Though being in Missouri I don't see the debacle live. I don't buy Wilson as being David Carr'd whatever the hell that even means.FlyingGreg":wm8pc0w6 said:A lot of us have seen this coming, so not mad at all. It is what is is.
Poor drafts and free agency decisions set us up for failure. Some choose to believe in the "sun will come out tomorrow", and that's ok. I don't begrudge anyone their opinion.
But, we are reaping what we sowed. We have shattered our former elite QB and we expose our defense way too much.
Mostly, I just miss being excited to watch the Seahawks play. They are painful and boring,l and I no longer look forward to 3 hours of this garbage. That's the worst part.
Schedule wise? I had them at 1-2 after Week 3. But what I am seeing matters more than W-L. We will still likely win the West and go to playoffs, but we don't have what it takes to win on the road or win the Conference.
Jim Plunklett was on worse teams for years then David Carr and won a Superbowl. Alex Smith basically the same but right this second on a team that can and will retire Tom Brady and most any NFC team beyond Atlanta if that.
Give Russell the tools and it is ON! (An actual average power OL not ZBS shite crap OL).
Do you hate the ZBS because we can't execute it, or do you actually think the scheme is inferior?

It just feels like they take a step back when the offense finally gets going. Yesterday, a late FG immediately after the offense scored a TD to take the lead. A TD immediately following the TD drive coming out of the half.

Even if though the team isn't playing the best, I'm still a football fan so I watch as many games as I can, even when it's not my team.Seahawkfan80":3i97mkk1 said:After the last few days leading up to the game, I was considering not even watching. I have issues that need to be addressed in the home and property before ma nature kicks my butt...too late. But I went ahead and skipped the early game and the late after our game game and went ahead and watched our game and the end of the packers game. My impression is that our offensive line actually started blocking their defensive line and gave RW some time to throw the ball. It was slow motion to me as I was in a limbo type of state of mind on the game. Not sure whether it meant anything or not. Reading chat and another chat to keep up with a couple of things helped keep me calm too. Dont know about the future so I also checked check with me tomorrow. I have more to do tomorrow too. I am definitely not losing sleep over what a bunch of millionaires do on a grass or fake grass field. I prefer to go fishing and may do that next weekend. Better that than put my heart into something that has less meaning now then it has in the past.
