Right and that worked really well at the beginning when their entire core was on rookie contracts. That seemed to fall apart after they had to sign 2nd contracts.. 

The Seahawks get a lot of respect from the Legion of Boom, as they should have.  In the last few years Wilson has carried that team, their drafts have been underwhelming and they have kept their heads above water through their pro-personnel department and good coaching. 12-4 and done in the wild card round. It would be an improvement for us but hardly the juggernaut days of years ago.

Yeah, that team reminds me quite a bit of Wilson's old NC State teams where he was "The Guy" making a suspect roster appear better than they were. 

He is the classic example of why you have to get that franchise QB. Even when the chips are down they make you competitive. Think about how often that was true when we had Cam.

I dislike Wilson as a person but he is a very good QB. With Cam it didn't matter if we matched up well, we had a chance. 

There was a time you had to go through the Seahawks to make it to a Super Bowl, now they are just scenery. Something has stagnated there.

The talent level has dropped off.

Lol....why do you dislike Russell? I have actually met him before. He is genuinely a very nice guy.

Dude comes off as fake as a $3 bill and I just find him generally annoying. I love playing against him when our D can get to him. He makes crazy throws and keeps his team in a game and the season, I respect that. I should say the public image, you know what he is like personally more than I could guess.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.

      He is an employee of the team and speaking on the team's official channel. They arent critical of anything ever.
