Sometimes it's easy to think of "your daddy's Seahawks" as a perpetually lousy team, but that's not really the reality. Yeah we had some of those years for sure, but when you really look at the record, we were one hell of a sucess story overall, posting winning records after just a few years of existence and making the playoffs just a few years in. We played the spoiler a lot, but earned a ton of respect in the league. Had we not landed in the talent packed AFC west for so many years, who knows how much further we may have gone?
I guess I'm an old codger because I grew up with the team. They became a team just prior to me taking an interest in the sport and of course as a kid, lack of playoff sucess made it feel like the team was a bunch of losers, but we did some amazing things. Just love watching these old films of some great teams earning NFL respect, if not making the playoffs.
Had a lot of fun watching these and a couple I posted in the MNF thread.
