Why Olsen chose the Seahawks...

[BrianS]

If he's looking for a ring, he went to the wrong club.  NFC West is tough, and Seattle have been slowly sliding for years.  If Wilson were to get hurt, that could easily turn into a sub .500 team.  Of the three he said he was serious about, Buffalo might have the best shot.

FYI: It's official as of today.

Hope he is successful at whatever he does or wherever he plays. I feel that way about any ex-Panther. Hope for failure is saved for ex-wives/girlfriends who leave.

Doesn’t really matter for us. We won’t be competitive until he’s retired.

In other former Panthers TE news...

This is the guy who, as a kid, was prepared to undergo a medical procedure to help his sister despite believing that he was going to die as a result.

He's clearly only a journeyman at the NFL level, but I root for him.

I think he has a much better chance at a ring and consistent success with Wilson than he ever did here. Unfortunately he’s on his way out.

I thought he went to Seattle was for the exclusive IR room it has free wifi and a mini fridge!! That's pretty cool.

He made the right decision. He wants one last shot at a SB ring & already knows ain't gonna get with a rebuilding squad of Red Foreskins. Plus, I have a feeling Buffalo's about to have a down season in '20.

Thus, Seattle is the best choice.

I think he made the right decision but that Bills squad is nice. With a good coaching staff. I dont see them going away.

Once Greg retires I'll remember him fondly but he's dead to me right now. Fug Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll, and the rest of the seachickens. And for right now at least, that includes Greg Olsen.
