Some good observations. But crowd noise has absolutely nothing to do with guys being wide open, allllllll dayyyyyyyyy lonnnnnnnnnnnng.
The middle of the field was open all day. Bucs could literally run crossing routes ten yards downfield and be open every play. So bad

Yeah. Losing sucks but I came away from watching the game more positive about the Seahawks. I know they can fix the defense but I did not know they had that in the offense.
Sammy D, BAYBEEEEE! 💪

You know what I mean. He was a beast. Still a team loss though. My point is that the crowd and HFA get blame sometimes, even if the team craps the bed.
Yeah.

You win as a team.

You lose as a team.

And it's not like Sammy D didn't have his hair-raising moments like the pass that went straight through the Defender's hands which ended up being completed? Or the pass that was literally tipped but Cooper Kupp hauled it in? 😅

It just sucked because in the INT, Sam wasn't looking to complete a pass to anyone unlike the other scenarios. lol

We are beating Jax next week. I know they are improved. I don't care. We are winning that game. They will have a short week to prepare. And more importantly, it's a road game for us. Getting good vibes. 😎
We are winning that game because Trevor Lawrence is nowhere near Baker's league as a QB.

Before 2024:
"Hey, I have an extra ticket to the Hawks' home game this weekend -- wanna go?"
"Sure!"

2024 and 2025:
"Hey, I have an extra ticket to the Hawks' home game this weekend -- wanna go watch them lose?"
"Sure, I guess."

Shut off the water in the visitor's locker room, no seating either, no heat or A/C. Laxatives in the snacks. No power for communications equipment on the visitor's sideline. Isn't that what being a visiting team is all about? Clearly the stadium staff isn't doing their job.

Here's a theory - the homefield noise makes it harder for THIS DEFENSE to communicate.

They were still trying to do hand signals, while the Bucs already got their plays off.

Why this defense and not others? Because MM's defense is complicated. People need to be on the same page.

Compound with no Julian Love - Okada is just not on the same level. The result was dudes wide-freakin-open.

Crowd was rockin all day long. Team just didn't do their part, at all.
This. I made the flight up from California and was at the game. Yes, there were Bucs jerseys there, but it was mostly a seas of blue and green, and that crowd was reminiscent of the Legion of Boom heydays. The defense was trash. Sure there were lots of subs in there, but that cannot be used as an excuse. And you can’t put the blame on Riq this time, as he wasn’t in for most of the 2nd half.

It’s just not that loud in there anymore. Hit 109 db yesterday. That was huddle loud before. 2010s. We were hitting 130 pre play. That’s 4 times as loud

I was there for the 9ers game and it was LOB Era loud at times.

12s are doing their part this year.

If crowd noise is the determining factor of why a team wins or loses, then the Seahawks have deeper issues. In 2020, they won 12 games without having a crowd at the stadiums.

Um, this is football. Crowd noise and HFA absolutely IS a factor. All 3 home games this year, it has been plenty loud.

You have to have a dominant pass rush with that noise. Then the tackles will want to get out of their set quicker to defend the rush. Where was the pass rush Sunday? Your defensive line was basically healthy .

I wish I could tell you there was. But Baker was back there cooking up steaks, getting college credits, watching a full movie, etc.
Plus, the secondary was far from healthy. Spoon and Love both were out. Later on REEK was out.

Me too,... I'm a displaced seahawks fan I can't be there in person, but to see Baker Mayfield throw his arms up and listen to half of the stadium get loud made me sick to my stomach...🤮
