Why the NFL is so great

Those 3 fans on top became Seahawk fans last year.

 

They look a little more diehard than that. For them to show that kind of emotion shows they actually know what had just happened and didn't have to have someone explain it to them. In a nutshell, their reaction shows an emotional investment in the team, unlike the two people sitting on either side of the Patriot fan.

I can't imagine the feeling the Seahawks fans had with that interception. It had to be a lot worse than the feeling when Kasay muffed our kickoff and you knew Brady was going to win it for the Patriots. They had that game in the bag and their coach and QB threw it away on them. They got too cute and the Patriots finally got their big break that they always seem to get.

Definitely had to be worse at the moment it happened because as you said, they had the game won.

 

Big picture though, at least they won one.

I met fans of SEA last night who told me they tuned in to SEA after they beat GB. They were devastated with the loss in ways I could not comprehend. Then again, I was jumping all over the place after that INT like I was a Pats fan. So I don't think bandwagon fans are emotionless.

    • He makes a good point about Wallace.  In fairness to Wallace it is hard to play your position as freely as you need to when your defensive line is getting pushed around like ragdolls.  One of the greatest attributes a defensive line has is sucking up blocks, freeing up your linebackers.  Our defensive line couldn't suck up a lollipop more or less blocks.  I think Evans, Sanders and Tremble are going to be a really nice TE group.  I can see all three getting time on the field.  If Sanders can improve as a blocker teams won't be so inclined to believe it is a pass play whenever Sanders is on the field.  Ryan Fitzgerald, I think was an awesome pick-up. Hopefully he can fill our kicker void. Luke Kandra many turn out to be our next Norwell.  Everything I have heard about him says he's a beast.  He needs some refinement, but the good news is he's got Hunt and Lewis (arguably the best guard tandem in the league) to learn from. 
    • Great teams build through the draft and have several young players that start that are on rookie contracts. It's important to hit on players in rounds 4 thru 7.  These should be future starters and solid depth.  When you hit on most of your picks you free up a lot of cap space for those one- or two-year players to fill spots you are thin at. No GM is going to perfect on all their picks.  You're going to whiff every once in a while.  That was Hurney problem.  He'd nail the first pick but after that it was reach after reach and we couldn't get any depth on this team. I'm excited about Morgan as our GM and hopefully he'll be around a long time.  It will be even better if Canales can continue to grow as a head coach, both in the development of young players and play calling. I remember last season after Young came back in the lineup and started to perform well.  We saw different plays I had only seen other teams use.   If Canales's play design and play calling continue to grow. Morgan and Canales will be linked together for a long time.  It would be nice to see a Coach and GM together for a decade or two. Go Panthers
