Seahawks GM hints he'll just let Wilson walk if he doesn't lower his demanded price.

Basically says that keeping the legion of boom in tact is more important than Wilson. Wonder if Gettleman would do the same for Cam. These QB contracts are crazy and are crippling their teams. Despite what many on here believe, Cam isn't close to being an elite QB, but he wants elite QB money. oh well, flame on.

Difference is Cam has always been asked to carry our offense and has done so. Lynch carries their offense.

Franchise qbs are a whole lot more expensive than they use to be.

A Moneyball approach might mess with some your minds but the successful franchises in all sports look for the non obvious factor to wins and cash flow.

 

Tough to do it in football.  The QB position in and of itself is so much more important than any other position in the major team sports.

    • Oh I know you’re not defending him, an I’m not even talking about league or legal punishments. But DV and hitting a police officer with his car, are the type of crimes that regardless of NFL or legal punishments, I think it’s the type of thing that would keep teams from ever signing him in the future 
    • That's the first thing I think of when I see Bevell's name.....kinda like Chris Webber and timeouts.  I thought he was a decent OC previously and he was up for the Jets OC. Seeing who they went with instead of Bevell is concerning. He, Dave and Dan go way back to Seattle days so there's alignment there, as we know this franchise embodies.  Looking back at Idzik, I do wonder if maybe 2026 is a year where he maybe transitions out from under Dave's wing. I thought they went farther back than 2019. Not that seven years is nothing in coaching, but maybe Dan and Dave want Bevell or someone with more expreience at Dave's side as we begin to make our move from cellar dwellers to NFC royalty.
    • Wise move: yeah. And unexpected. It was hard to see how to navigate the situation to where If they feel like Canales should be relieved of the play calling burden they have a legit person to give it to. Because to this point, they didn’t.  And they did it without firing Idzik. Who is from a football family background and probably has potential - he just isn’t there yet for the play calling trust.  Both the HC and the OC can lean on this man, who has been an interim HC twice himself and a SB OC. It checks a lot of boxes on the surface.    And another set of qualified eyes, with an unbiased outside perspective, evaluating the QB situation seems like a good thing as well.
