Or maybe we win 11 of the next 15 games and are poised for another deep playoff ride. Then what?

That makes no sense.cymatica":nwo0727t said:Siouxhawk":nwo0727t said:Fans do not know more than Pete. Period! I'd really recommend that if you're all butt hurt for running a style of offense that scores a ton of points, look elsewhere and find a marriage to a team that fulfills your desires. Pete has a method that he's not going to deviate much from. That's the plain, hard facts.
The only thing I care about is winning! And this staff and organization knows how to do that!
That is ridiculous. Some fans apparently knew more than Pete when we picked up Harvin. Sometimes it's easier to see things clear looking from the outside in.
Most who complain about the offense, again, don't expect Madden stats, yet you always build a strawman in that regard. We want to see an offense with an identity, and actually built around it. If we are a run first/pa team then we need the personnel for it(not graham or harvin). Right now our offense looks like conflicting styles just forced together and called balanced. We don't have a balanced offense like Pete wants, or we would see playcalls and gameplans accordingly. We see them abandon the run when it doesn't work yet still run play action like it does. They seem confused
I think that today you'll see a heavy dose of the running game, which is very much the identity Pete desires. So then we'll have a 2-game sample size to assess the identity of this year's team.
And do you really think there's a team out there that's infallible when it comes to personnel decisions. The Harvin debacle notwithstanding, even teams like the Patriots make gaffes now and then (they just had a defensive player they traded for in the offseason and already cut him, name escapes me). And even in the Harvin scenario, they quickly realized that it would be addition by subtraction and were still able to get a draft pick for him from Buffalo.

Once we get to the playoffs, it's a new season. Of course HFA is desired and I'm sure we'll be in the mix for that too.

Still believe?

Whether it's banners at the game or as they did once in NY fly a plane over Jets practice with a banner saying "Fire Idzik". I don't know about anyone else here but I'm fed up with what has gone on with the offensive ineptness with Bevell/Cable and the line the last few years.
Anyone else in because....
I'm in!!!!

I am so in on this!!!!
Generally, most teams that are "successful" has "insufferable" fans. You don't typically see programs that havent won many games have fans be as opinionated.Slick":14f9npsz said:Things like this demonstrate why people tend to think Seahawks fans are the most insufferable, douche-baggy fans in the NFL. I agree fully with those people.
