Unselfish

[Ostatehawk]

Have you ever seen a team that was more unselfish than this team?

To a man - every single one of them is giving props to their team mates rather than natter on about their own greatness. I really think that they just do not care about individual stats or accolades - it is all about winning as a team.

 

[Shane Falco]

I believe that right there is what put them over the top when it came down neck and neck with a few good teams this season and the playoffs.

 

[Ostatehawk]

A lot of teams talk about this sort of thing. I think this team actually lives it.

Sam basically ignored a question about his journey during the post game. He said it's all about the other guys and the team. This team hits different.

Every one of them, even Lawerance who came here to win one credited the whole team and ability to learn from others and teach others. You never heard I I I in any post-game interview, Mike even had trouble crediting himself for coaching them, saying when you take over as coach you find out real fast you don't know a lot of things and need to find the people that do.

 

[Torc]

I'm remembering when Leonard credited Zabel with one of his sacks. Experienced pro crediting a rookie on the other side of the ball. Amazing comradery on this team.

 

[Sperrydogg]

Our team is the best, literally

This is why Sam is loved by EVERY lockerroom/team he's been on.

This is a very likeable team.

Nice that Sam called out the fans when he accepyed the trophy. His humility is admirable.

Macdonald has honestly built something special in professional sports when it comes to "culture". It's incredible, really.

 

[Appyhawk]

Vrabel proved he, with all his experience, is a very good coach, maybe even a great coach. Macdonald proved he already knows how to be the real 'good as it gets' deal.

In the ultimate team game, the Seahawks have been exhibiting this character trait all season. Let's hope they can survive winning the SB and continue with it. Sometimes success is the hardest thing to overcome.

If anyone can do it...

This is why it's so important NOT to have malcontents on the team and to have a GM with his finger on the pulse of the team. Top that off with a top tier coach in MM to lead this fine group and success is going to gravitate toward you. I don't believe it's too much to think we could win a couple more... Super Bowls.

 

[Natethegreat]

This year's team was unselfish. Probably the biggest difference from last years team to this one.

Who do we see on tis roster that is a "Me First" guy?

Maybe Reek....but I actually see him as just a hothead overly emotional player rather than simply a me first guy.

 

[chris98251]

He is or was, gets put back in order fast however as we have seen, have to play within the boundaries, but don't want to break that spirit, hard for guys in positions like CB, and WR these days as you look across the league.

 

[MontanaHawk05]

It's nice not knowing what each of these guys looks like because they aren't mugging cameras all the time, like the LOB.

 

[Aussie Seahawk]

I think this unselfishness and TEAM is indeed what makes us so special. The synergism. Can anyone imagine... Brian Bosworth types in the MOB culture?
