i like the seahawks. pete carroll is a little annoying but i'm just mad we're stuck with ronnie ronnie no balls. russell wilson is annoying crying on camera but i respect his game. i fuging love richard sherman and that defense. i think the 12th man is a phenomenal marketing effort that's a little annoying when taken up by loud bandwagoners.

honest question, and I know that's never a real good idea here on the huddle, but what the hell!

how is it possible for panther fans to hate the Seahawks and their fans? (myself not included of course)

go

There's a lot of Seahawk fans popping out of caskets and sh*t here in So-Cal with some very new Russell Wilson jerseys. That's why.

I don't mind actual real Seahawks fans so much. They seem like decent people outside of their love for mediocre game manager QBs, terrible coffee and depressing weather. Really it's the hoard of obnoxious bandwagon douchebags that I can't stand.

 

I really think there's this hoard of bandwagon asshats that meet up and decide together which bandwagon they're gonna jump on and for right now it seems like the Seahawks are it. I picture a big town meeting type get together where all the bandwagon fugnuts vote to see which team they're all gonna suddenly claim die hard status for. Maybe a few even stand up and give speeches trying to sway votes for their particular bandwagon candidate, I don't know.

 

 

Either way, until this league of chugglefugs lose interest and wonder off to the next bandwagon... well you know...

Personally I do not hate them at all and really like most of what they are about.  I like their players and coach and love the fact that they win with defense in an age where the NFL is continually changing the rules in an effort to make that impossible.

 

I do not hate them for bandwagon fans because that is just the nature of the beast.  Whoever wins has bandwagon fans.  They make up 10% of the fanbase but make 90% of the noise.  I do not root against them for this reason though because even if the bandwagon team loses they just go root for someone else.

 

The 12th man crap is the one thing that annoys the hell out of me though.  Seahawk fans are not, never have been, and never will be the 12th man, nor will any other NFL team.  The 12th man is a Texas A&M Aggie fan.  It is a tradition with roots going back nearly a century and is so much cooler than Seattle or any other team that has used the moniker.  The way Seattle uses it seems born out of arrogance to me.

The "12th" man is an attempt to claim their fans are some of the best fans around the nfl and I don't believe they are close.

 

I'd put them behind the fanbases of the Steelers, Packers, Bears, Chiefs, Browns, Bills, Cowboys, Redskins, Eagles, Giants, Jets, 49ers and Ravens.

 

 

They..........are probably at the rank of some of the  fanbases in our division.   The Panthers for example.  We have a ton of fans that show up in full support of the Panthers,  only when the Panthers are winning...  when the Panthers are losing,  a lot of those fans slink back into the shadows.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
