seen it was reported Pete called a special team meeting to discuss team moral, personal issues, ect.. To me this is not good thing going into week 17 , heading into playoffs, hoping for some help and needing a win to get a higher seed and needed bye week.
Are you talking about the meeting that was held last week? It was going into week 16, not 17.
Doesn't worry me a bit. There is a lot of youth on the team and the season is a grind.
If it was held last week, then it sure didn't work based on the results of Saturday's game. I think the "hunger" is missing from the team. They have been winning since 2012 so a little complacency has settled in last season and this season so far. Hopefully that "hunger" comes back on Sunday and beyond.
Really?.....So guys like Bennett & Rawls missing a few games, having KEY players like Earl Thomas, & Tyler Lockett out at the tail end of the Season, along with two Rooks on the O-line and a couple others there that have no business even being in the that lineup hasn't taken any kind of toll?
"Winning since 2012" also included guys like Marshawn Lynch, and a fairly healthy 'Legion Of Boom', an O-Line that was dialed into providing for a stellar run game......We're not even close to having that O-Line in the lineup now, and this year?, Russell Wilson has paid a big price for all the shortcomings.
It's hard enough to find a team that has continuity, all it's fingers and toes that still doesn't have misfires & brain farts every now and then, let alone a team that is missing a crucial HALF of it's all star Secondary, a glued together patchwork O-Line & RB's that have been injured LONG before it can put in the necessary time to find it's groove.
What would you have Pete do at this juncture?, there's a lot of players on the team now, that have never been this deep into a season before, and CERTAINLY haven't played against PRO caliber players for a whole season, so they are in uncharted waters, and in need of meetings like this. JMHO
