The Seattle Seahawks are finally fugging up their cap. Marshawn is getting a pretty large sum to play as a running back in his thirties. Plus they have several other contracts coming up, including Wilson.

 

They know their offense would be even more squat, and Wilson would be quite ordinary if they get rid of Lynch!! :sick:

It's hard to spin it as mismanagement when you make two superb owls in a row and win at least one of them. Every contender has a limited window, it's what happens with a salary cap. If you can draft consistently well over a long period of time you can extend it, but that's difficult and requires a lot of luck. Let's focus on opening our window to begin with before we start bashing far more successful franchises.

But you don't pay for what someone had done, but what someone will do. Lynch's career isn't going to be productive much longer.

Agreed.

 

But think how much worse that offense would be, if you took away the threat of Lynch, which is what the entire offense rest upon anyway?

 

They kinda had no choice, and they know it. That's why they paid him.

 

At least Gettleballs, had the courage to know he could get away with jettisoning Steve Smith. Obviously, the equally as smart Seattle front office, doesn't feel that way regarding Lynch.  I would really hate to see what their offense looked like if he wasn't there, and Wilson became the focal point of opposing defenses. :phew:

Then again, maybe I would like to see that. LOL. Unfortunately, Seattle's not that stupid.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By bandu · Posted

      there is one common denominator in the 2003 & 2015 Carolina Panthers teams they both had ELITE top tier Qb play.  it would require a MVP type of season from Bryce Young to have the same type of success that Jake Delhomme had in  2003 & or Cam Newton in 2015 & lead this team to a SuperBowl is this going to happen or is there any reason to believe Bryce Young is capable of playing similar to Jake Delhomme in 2003 or Cam Newton in 2015 ? well no there is no absolutely NO reason whatsoever to believe that this is going to happen in 2026 ..just saying

      Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

      By CmC2k · Posted

      I'd actually like to see Cherelus get a fair shot to win the job in camp. Wallace is decent in drop zone coverage, but he gets abused in the play action game and is often times out of position in the run game. It might just be me, but I swear every time I watch Wallace play, I see multiple plays a game were it looks like he's just trying to be blocked. Watching Cherelus last year he at least looked like he was trying to hit someone on every play. Wallace plays like a LB who doesn't trust what he sees and it makes him passive and cautious versus Cherelus who regardless of if his decision is right or wrong goes at it 100%.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      Agreed.  Hasn’t happened to me either, but I feel very strongly about it.  That’s not just one of the worst things a woman could do to a man, it’s a power inherent to only women and is one of the worst things a HUMAN being can do to another.  A man can’t “hide” a pregnancy or maternity.  It’s impossible.  And that sucks for anyone that has to go through that. I always got a weird vibe off her and just found her very unlikeable.  Annoying even.  I’ve always been good at reading people and there was just something about her to me that was off-putting, somewhere under the surface.  And here we are…  she is despicable.
