A read on our captains for this coming year

I'm not sure Greg will be a captain.

 

You could say that if both Steve Smith, and Jordan Gross were still with the team. Not now though. Olsen is a pretty likely candidate. Greg is an important contributor to our team, a high character family man, and is also a good presence in the local community here.

Well, I think Cam, Kuechly, Davis and Kalil are locks.  As for the other two - IMO, it would come down to CJ, Olsen, Tolbert, and maybe Colin Jones if they add a ST guy.  Maybe Gano as a far left field choice, but can't see him over Olsen and Johnson.

We didn't last year.

Jordan Gross, Steve Smith, Thomas Davis, Ryan Kalil, Cam Newton, and Luke Kuechly. Some suspected Rivera changed it up in order to get Cam on. No way he was taking Gross' or Smith's spot.

Hmm I wonder if Hardy will ever step into CJ's role, I would imagine so.

 

If Hardy cleans up his image and is the DE that remains past '14, then yeah, I could see it.  Thing is... the C goes deeper than just talent - so if you're getting caught up in salary disputes and legal stuff off the field, no room to be the captain.

Yeah exactly, thats what I was thinking about. I could see him being a leader, he's similar to CJ in that respect and seems to have learned from him. He still may need a tad more control with his temper on the field. He constantly looks amped up to the limits to me. There's no dial down knob with him it seems.

    • You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with. 
    • I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.
    • The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
