March 13th and the season is a lost cause for some of you.
We've let go of injury ridden/aging, costly or unproductive players to clear cap space (whom likely you've had no problem bashing on the way out) and haven't IMMEDIETLY filled their spots and y'alls attitudes are defeated.
Zero faith for the future.
Zero faith in who IS on our roster.
Zero faith in finding guys via draft or trade for guys with a competitive beating heart.
You guys are insufferable.
Someone needs to pinch y'all and remind you we dropped our 2 most debilitating problems in recent years. Neither of which sport a helmet on Sunday's.
When other teams fans say we got the worst fan base, I can't even argue with them.
Between what I've read on here over the years, first hand accounts in person and have seen on FB it's nothing short of a bunch of ukeface:
I'm sure your 12 flags will come back out when it's nice and convenient tho.
Life your life with a glass half empty, folks.
If we are insufferable then you could go elsewhere. You don't need to read, or criticize other people just because they have a different view than you do. If we were a hive minded, monolithic bunch this place would be boring. This kind of talk happens on every forum, and it even happened on the superbowl winners forums when their starting QB went down. Right now you are not discussing, you are calling out/claiming people are not real fans, just because they are not happy the way the team is going. That is not cool.The Breh":22ohew4n said:This place is a complete embarrassment :34853_doh:

I don't think Carroll is reloading for the future. I don't think he has a long time left in the NFL. I thought he looked as if he was on edge, almost as if he wanted out of Seattle, or perhaps the NFL. I think Carroll is making calculated moves, he is not looking at this season as another throw away. He does not have the luxury of time to completely to a ground up rebuild on the Seahawks. Last season was a good indicator of this. We made some risky moves in bringing Richardson, and Brown -- in the process we ended up pawning a good portion of our draft picks and salary cap. We mustn't forget that Carroll is the oldest head coach in the NFL, where he stands a rebuild would not make sense.chris98251":30ibetfu said:We can only look at today, I have said I seen this coming and it was not unexpected, what is going to be unexpected is who we sign, what trades if any we make, and what draft choices and how many we end up with.
We now how a bunch of holes with unproven or nobody in place as of yet to fill them.
Today I would say 4 -12 to 7 - 9, after tomorrow that could be 2 -14 or 9 - 5. It will continue till around August or the first week of September when we start cherry picking other teams cuts and really see what we have.
I am not throwing any towel in, just tempering any expectations till I see the canvass finished for this season and hoping to see the start of another canvass for the future .

My take on the whole situation is that Carroll is looking to get rid of the contentious players on the roster. There was a lot of media attention, and focus placed on Bennett this season. He was very vocal, and undisciplined as a player, more so than usual. Our players did not keep gap integrity, and as Richardson said, they all just did their own thing. I think this is why Richards was let go. We had a very talented D-Line, and if what Richardson said is true, it would lend a lot of credence to this theory. I think Bennett also played a big part in the willy nilly style of the D-line.
On offense we faced similar issues with discipline ranging from the wide receivers, to the offensive line and QB. I think this is why Bevell was ultimately let go and why he has not been picked up by another team. Coaching changes, and the cutting away of contentious players was the only real way to fix this. The Sherman cut was due to his inability to stay healthy, and the large salary he commanded, purely cap related.
I believe if we bring in a good interior lineman to pair with Brown, and a wide receiver that is a red zone threat that we can be a balanced team that can threaten to go all the way. Our main priority should be getting the offense sorted out this offseason. If we can do that I believe we have the personnel to succeed on defense with a few tweaks.

4-12, 9-7, whatever? Those with the defeatist blues seem to be betting against the youth on the team that didn’t play poorly in relief of the expensive veterans. That is a mistake. The team still has a lot of key pieces and a new staff that won’t be doing the dumb crap that happened on O last year.
We could easily gain 3 games on this last season with a decent kicker and nothing else. FA hasn’t truly begun and already we will have a losing team with $28 million of cap to spend, OK. Don’t count me in.

People that are not happy with the hawks at the moment have some valid reasons behind them. We don't have to be rah, rah and support every decision our FO makes, most of rarely do. Rather than call people out, why don't you defend your position? Discourse with fellow 'Hawk fans is what keeps us all coming back to this forum time, and time again. You don't have to agree with the certain members of the fan base, and that is alright. What you wrote, however was just a veiled attempt of calling others who do not share your point of view 'not real fans'.
That is the kind of thing that I find "insufferable".
