    Seahawks sale?

    Some of us have suspected for awhile that the team is headed for sale. These things take time, but as Thiel points out it is probably already in motion, although who knows about timing. How else might we tell? Well, I wouldn't expect big signings of older veterans if there is anything to...

    It's Happened - Wilson Traded

    I'd like to never have to hear Clayton again, him and the various other "sports personalities". Seriously, for me it's cause for termination or just banning them from ever prognosticating on various radio and TV shows. For over the past year Clayton has either gas lit or showed extreme...

    PLEASE !!! don't resign Penny.

    "Just sign him to an incentive-laden deal!" Has it occurred to some of us that Penny's strong close precludes that as a possibility? So let me amend that. Sign him to an incentive-laden contract and if another team is dumb enough to break the bank on an oft-injured running back you let...

    The best win percentage teams over the past ten years.

    Those of us that are dubious of the Seahawks are in part that way because of the logic used to defend them. Take this post for example. We now have to go back a decade to make the numbers look good? Much of that success was over the first 5 years (especially post-season success) after which...

    Where do you get your hope for next season?

    Areas for hope... - This season the warts were harder to ignore. A lot of people who had never questioned the team started asking questions. That is good. Pete's schtick is already past due. Another season should have more people waking up, even if we overachieve. - Getting a young and not...

    If Pete flounders this year is Harbaugh on deck?

    Gosh, here I thought I was on a board with many who would still be in Carroll's corner with a zero win season, who would pick a coach over the only franchise QB the Seahawks have EVER had. But I need to get with the program. So by jingo, we're going over the trenches in 2022-2023 right into...

    Petes Cryptic Message

    You can't guarantee that, neither can I since we don't know what Carroll actually thinks. He is the oldest head coach in the NFL now and in a division where younger coaches have kicked his tail (Niners being the big exception). But we can tell by his actions. Is he someone that comes across...

    Petes Cryptic Message

    How old is Pete? Realize he may not be as patient as you to sniff success again.

    John Clayton is sick of Russell Wilson trade rumors: 'He's n

    John Clayton is an outdated caricature of his past self. I get that he doesn't want it to be a story. But that doesn't mean it's not a story. He is either disingenuous or a moron (personally I favor the former).

    Wilson? Now that Pete stays.

    So off season plan...trade Russ...sign Geno? :P :P :P

    Wilson? Now that Pete stays.

    Yes donate, I do not take a franchise QB for granted. We have had exactly ONE in Seahawks history. I understand that some folks think that it's easy to replace, but all evidence is to the contrary. Wilson had to be talked down last year after another repeat ending. He is frustrated. There...

    Wilson? Now that Pete stays.

    You could also say reports of Carroll & Co. coming back are just clickbait. Expect to see more of this. Wilson wanted changed last year. He donated another season which ended in 7-10 and not even making the playoffs. I don't see him being more satisfied this off season. Wilson wants...

    Why wouldn’t RW want to leave?

    Exactly. Carroll thinks that we are close. Wilson does not and he wants more rings. One more ring equals the Manning Bros. Two more puts him in elite company. And the clock is ticking. It's that simple. Fans giddy about Carroll (evidently) staying generally are more optimistic on...

    Russell Wilson: Report says he wants to explore options with

    Of course he does. Wilson wants to win Super Bowls. Carroll thinks we are close. Wilson does not. Retaining Carroll encourages Wilson to leave. Apparently we have chosen a coach over a franchise QB. As someone who wants Carroll out (because I want to win another Super Bowl), I do not...

    Too Little Too Late? Perhaps, But...

    It depends on your definition of success. I don't regard not making the playoffs as successful. I don't regard poor drafting as successful. I don't regard 1 playoff victory in 5 years as successful. I don't regard looking outclassed, including against backup QBs as successful. I don't regard...
