Is the rumor true?

I have a question is it true that the Seahawks are rumored to be extending Lynch? NBC mentioned this several times in the pregame so I'm curious if it has any validity.

If I was lynch i wouldn't stay if bevell stays, that'd be my negotiation terms lol If he's gone I'll stay otherwise bye bye

players dictating coaching staff decisions?

Seattle offered him a two year contract it was rumored. Supposedly it's tearing up next year and giving him a new two year contract with only next year guaranteed at 11m.

It's all speculation at this point but that is what pro football talk was saying.

I'm not sure how Bevell could look Marshawn in the eye after this.
Even if the hawks want to sign him, why would he come back at this point?

I'm scared as hell at what we would look like without Lynch, but this may be the time to part ways.

Apparently Lynch took the high road after the game. Said the game is a team game.

Carrol asked for a pass play it wasn't Bevell's fault.

Your not so smart if you believe Carroll. He's just doing what good coaches do and take the blame. Unlike bevell who comes out and says he makes the calls and then throws Lockette under the bus.. Aka Jim Mora'd him.

This is all I've seen on it:

Assuming Lynch doesn't get fed up with the NFL and Bevell ignoring him and just hang 'em up

Thanks, if I understand it correctly that means the guaranteed money can be spread out over three years as opposed to the 8M+ cap hit for next year currently correct?

I would hate/love it if Marshawn told the team he will retire if Bevell stays. If Pete wants to stubbornly hold onto Bevell, he doesn't deserve Lynch

Let's be clear here. Carroll asked for a pass play, Bevell called that specific pass play. Some blame to go around here but on the outside, it looks like a pass play was the right call on 2nd and 1 with 1 TO remaining with :26 left. That specific pass play was probably not the right one for the situation.

Should have been playaction rollout in my opinion.

And are you any different? You're throwing Bevell under the bus because the play wasn't executed properly?

Whose decision was it to call the timeout after Kearse's catch?

According to an interview on fieldgulls. Bevelled said he made the call and added he makes all the calls unless Pete tells him other wise

(on if that goes for him and Pete Carroll and Tom Cable and everybody on the play call) "Well, you know I'm calling the plays, and I make the calls, unless Carroll tells me to do something different, but we communicate, we talk, and I make all of the play calls."

(on not running the ball) "I mean that's an option. The one thing we were just talking about was we were trying to make sure that we were using all of the time. We only had one timeout as well so we were trying to do that and then with the throw, one thing is going to happen. It is either going to be incomplete or it's going to be a touchdown. So either way we had a chance to stop the clock there and then we could still end up getting all four of our plays."

(on him making the call and if it came from somewhere else) "Yes. I made the call."


Bedell forget that there could be an interception too? It is part of the game Bevell.

My exact take on the matter. RW could have run it in himself at worst throw it away. Slant in that tight group?

I am different I'm not a player therefore I can throw whoever I please under the bus. I'm sorry it doesn't jive with your bevell love feelings. But it doesn't change the fact that bevell himself admitted he makes the calls and then blamed a player. So go ahead, try and spin something else up.

PS Screw Bevell . And anyone else who supports his roont ass.

Suddenly, I wish I lived in Kansas City :stirthepot:

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Seriously why pick a play without several options in that kind of situation. To pass the ball wasn't a bad decision and may actually have been the correct decision (I don't completely agree if it is) but the type and location was asinine.

Yup. I would have preferred a tight formation with play action to Lynch and a roll-out. The TE would leak out of the scrum toward the roll-out side of the endzone. This gives Russell a chance to "read" the play and make the pass or throw it away.

I would have been fine with a throw to the outside from the pocket, or the back corner. Basically what you can't do is throw a pass right into the area where there are tons of defenders, especially a touch pass that has to be thrown before you can actually see exactly what all is going on... you need to play to the strengths of the QB which is seeing the field and putting the ball somewhere where only our guy can get it, or it falls incomplete.

It was idiotic to call that play in that situation, given the defensive alignment.
