I'm sick of reading hyberbole comments regarding media specs about Lynch.
I stand firm on my belief. Lynch is in to the end of 2014 season.
Done
Yes! Ignore the noise. None of it is coming from anyone that covers the locker room.....it is just the national media creating headlines to keep their relevance. Lynch isn't going anywhere!!!
Awesome post. Now click your heels together 3 times while saying "there's no place like home, there's no place like home".
The media doesn't play near the games you people seem to think they do. Do you think guys like Mort and Rappaport are not held to a higher standard than some tabloid scribes writing about the sighting of the baby Jesus in a grilled cheese sandwich? Inventing, then reporting fictitious bullshit will certainly not "keep them relevant".
You are way off base. Those guys smell blood in the water and are jumping on the "click my site" bandwagon. They would be fools to do otherwise. Even if they are just repeating what Freeman said, they are going to get involved, that's how they make bank.
It's not a game, no one here thinks it's a game, it's a business that runs off of speculation and hyperbole. If Marshawn Lynch were to fart, there would be tweets that he's "Questionable for Sunday." It's part of being the SuperB Owl champions.
Lynch knew last spring that he was unlikely to see the last year of his contract. Every player knows that. I'm sure he knew that when he signed his contract, hence the guaranteed money. Last Spring John Schneider gave him a bump in pay and took some of the 2015 money and paid it out this year.
I agree with the OP, Lynch lives to play football and he will play somewhere in 2015, so this is basically a contract year. The reason he held out during training camp is because he wanted a contract extension. Marshawn wants to play out his career here, but he realizes that no one, (except for Russell Wilson) is safe.
It's obvious he was upset when Percy got traded, why shouldn't he? Harvin was his friend and he helped Marshawn's game. But he's probably over that by now and a win really helps.
But all this aside, don't be surprised if he is still a Seahawk come 2015. He might even get that contract extension. I believe Lynch is one of those people who physically defies that odds and much like Frank Gore, will be productive at 30 and 31.
