    Ignoring tonight, do you prefer @ Eagles or vs. Vikings

    Pretending that you could win tonight, win the division etc in either scenario, which matchup would you rather have?

    Potential/Likely 9ers cuts you guys should be interested in.

    Three of them, mostly from areas where the 9ers have depth and the Seahawks could use depth, but more importantly these are players who I think are good depth and scheme fits for the Seahawks: Kendrick Bourne, WR: Generally good at everything, but the only area he truly excels in as a run...

    NFL Changes wishlist

    Just for fun, here's my top two. Add on. 1) Turn the Spring League into an actual developmental league that runs from the beginning of May to Mid-July when TC opens. This window is the true dead zone of the NFL calendar. There are 90 man rosters on which 40% of people won't make the team, and...

    An NFL Allegory for the Current Hawks Situation

    I root for a team that had a bunch of success but had fallen short for a few years in a row. After a really down 8-8 season that was beset by injuries our fanbase thought we were arrow up by getting rid of our head coach. We had grown sick of how he was stuck in ways, and more so than...

    Good longer analysis reads

    Thought this thread should exist. Folks could come back and intermittently post things they've read and liked. Will kick it off with Benoit from this morning on what has has happened with the Chiefs offense, and what to do about it. https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/11/27/kansa ... ak-offense He...

    11 points

    ...is how much the Rams outscored the rest of the NFC West combined in Week 1. :lol: Friggin NFL.

    Most Underrated and Most Overrated Seahawks player

    Inspired by a Prisco column from this morning. He said Clark for underrated and Lacy for overrated. Who you got for both underrated and overrated? I'll spare you mine (for now at least) b/c I don't want what could be a fun thread to get derailed into an argument about who I think is overrated...

    Lynch with the top selling jersey in May

    Pretty predictable and a great story overall, but I still find it kind of sad for Raiders fans. Other things of note: *Raiders players at 1, 6, and 15. *Wentz at 8 after stinking up the last 3/4s of his rookie year is pretty surprising. * James Conner at 11 -- I follow the NFL closely and...

    Placeholder for Hawks Fans Doing a Dramatic 180 on Kap

    Looks like a trade is imminent. Denver and 9ers dealings are heating up, and two other teams are also in play. Could be done by the end of the day. 9ers reportedly asking for a 2nd rounder. This is the thread in which Hawks fans can safely switch positions by: 1) Doing a 180 and saying...

    PFF: 3 of the worst 6 O-Lines in the NFL are in the NFCW

    ...and not one of them graded out above average. Cards @ 17; 9ers @ 27; Rams @ 28; Seahawks @ 30. I really enjoyed it when the NFCW replaced the NFCE as the "smash mouth" division of the NFL, but it's just really hard to justify that claim with O-line play like this, IMO. And no, I don't...

    You Decide: Who To Root For On My Summer Vacation

    As I said last week, I'll always be a 9ers fan but refuse to root for Chip Kelly. So, as long as he's their coach. I need a team to root for on my summer vacation. Wanna help me decide my interim team? Rules: 1) Strong preference for an AFC team so as not conflict with my usual fandom while...

    Marvin, there's still plenty of room on our bandwagon...

    What in particular are you pointing out about that thread? That Marvin thinks the anti-York banner was pointless and that York isn't intentionally trying to destroy the team, but people who are out for York blood disagree with him? If he wants less York bashing he should hang out with...

    Spotrac Starters Cap Hit

    Just thought this was an interesting little feature to talk about. http://www.spotrac.com/research/nfl/pro ... ially-514/ For the Seahawks: 21 out of 32 for age of prospective starters (youngest being #1) #3 in the league for the cap hit for projected starters (they're 4 million behind #2...

    McDonald case forwarded to DA

    The last thread got locked (for good reason IMO), but I'm assuming this is still a topic of interest, so I might as well make the thread about it. SJDA tweeted that the case has been forwarded to them, so now we're waiting on them to decide if the findings warrant charging him or not. FWIW...

    Hawks wont sell playoff tickets to fans frm opposing markets

    http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... addresses/ Never heard of anything like this before, but maybe it's common? Anyone heard of anything like this before? Apologies if this is common knowledge and I'm just behind the times.

    How the NFL Fleeces Taxpayers

    Very good piece -- based on his new book -- by Gregg Easterbrook. He's senior editor at The Atlantic (one of several places you can find this), but also writes the Tuesday Morning Quarterback column for ESPN. Of course, ESPN is so in bed with the NFL that they're the only outlet that isn't...
