In hindsight sure but I know for a fact that Ron was in his 3rd year, his seat was very hot and people were saying the same exact thing during that 0-2 start as they are saying now. In fact, even after we beat the Giants that year to improve to 1-3, we then got blown out the following week by the Cardinals and we were sitting at 1-3 before going on a 11-1 run. 
 

Now I will say that yes, us going on a similar run is VERY unlikely and Rhule isn’t half the coach Rivera is, but precedent is precedent. 

I don’t think precedent is the word you are looking for here

He is right. Baker was too quick with his footwork and led to missed timing with the receivers. From A22, it appeared that baker was moving faster than his WR. At first I thought it was bad play design, but if baker slows the cadence of his footwork by a whole  step, he will hit his receivers in stride.

If I could choose between 5 wins or 2 wins I'll take 2 for draft position. I think the Saints and Falcons are both trash, so we'll be in ugly close games against them just like our last two games. In that case, I think we'll split with them both for two wins, with the first of those wins being this Sunday.

Now the other factor in more possible wins are fluke games, and teams that have a QB injury before we play them. We're good enough to have a few games where we catch fire and the other team lays an egg and we beat better teams. I think have a minimum of two fluke wins, one maybe against the Steelers, or some team that is unfamiliar with us.

That puts us at 4 wins minimum imo. If we have no fluke wins, and no opposing teams riddled with key injuries, and we keep playing poorly, we could have only 2 wins. If you want to go to a home game where we win, then I'd say go this Sunday imo. 50/50 we win imo.

So in case any of you want SOMETHING to cling to.. Fun little fact.. In 2013 when we started 0-2 and ended up 12-4, our first two losses were by a combined 5 pts.. This year our first two losses are by a combined 5 pts. Just a neat little bit of info I researched and found today. 

Yes but those two losses were against the eventual Super Bowl Champions and a fluke loss to the Bills. 
That’s 2013 squad would beat the pants out of this team.

Pretty sure Dalton could carve up this secondary after seeing what Brissett and Jones could do. If they play Jameis he probably won't throw deep

Dalton looked like a shell of the average player he was last time he got on the field.  

Hard to guess with Payton gone, but I think Hill could step in and beat us.  But not sure the new staff has the same Hill obsession.

That would get ugly fast. It would be fascinating to watch Riveras "mediocre" squad vs whatever this is, I guess Rhule's "Brand" of football

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
