This has to be the worst group of linebackers I have ever seen

They are making the rest of the defense look worst than they are. Absolutely pathetic linebacking play. They couldn't tackle a chair.

At this rate our O is only going to have the ball 4-6 times. I hope they can get some 7's on those drives.

the dline is even worse.
D-line can only do so much. They can't get any pressure because our linebackers can't do a single thing right. They can't tackle, cover or keep Murray from running all over them. I am telling you, all our problems are because of our linebackers.

I think the have talent

They don’t have the communication and trust that a squad that has played together a long time has. Imho that’s the biggest issue
I don't buy that. Watching them take bad angles, wait for ball carriers and blockers to come to them conceding more yards, and tunnel vision(dlineman just pushed the tackle back and let the RB run right by him without making any effort to tackle)

LBs are usually the easiest defensive position to replace at least. Shouldn't need to use one of our firsts on it, unless there's a Micah Parsons kind of prospect there.

and i'm not listening.

the backers are a problem. but the dline cant control gaps, get pushed back, and the linebackers can't shed blocks over and over again. the front needs to atleast eat up blockers. and that can't even do that.

Pretty sure they haven't had a tackle for loss on a run all year

Not trying to “sell it”, just my opinion

Pete built this.
he also built the #1 offense in DVOA through the same amount of weeks.

and hopefully JS took over the reigns as personnel decision-maker again. it seemed so last draft. that wasn't a pete draft. i didn't see them trading up for a "collier"

I thought all our problems were RW related.

Dam, us Seahawk fans are a fickle bunch

JS Built the offense. The Defense is Pete's baby.
