But it's about the clicks! There's no journalism anymore.  It's all hot takes and opinion pieces. 

I'm convinced there is a lane and opportunity for someone to cover the sport with dignity but they would have to put effort into learning the subject matter. They could get good answers if they asked informed questions.

If there is they are an adoration.  I remember when journalists were unbiased and sought out the truth and did honest investigation into their reporting.  Apparently journalism school has dropped that part of the curriculum from their degree requirements.

It's embarrassing listening to the questions they ask.  Mike Kaye was trying to dig in to why McCall didn't play and Reich is like "he did, pay attention" I used to hate Gantt but he's the only one who seems to be able to speak in complete sentences. Unlike Person for example, who was always like "can you say a few words about <insert subject>" Just so lazy.

Gotta make money and reporting the facts doesn't do that anymore. 😞

Those assholes. How am I going to get my episode of whiny beat reporters. 

i honestly just want to be able to hear what the press is asking the coaches and players. Most of the time we have to guess what they asked based on how the players and ocaches respond.

FYI... Sports journalism is entertainment journalism. Clicks are king. You can spend a month writing a long form insightful article and no one will read it. A 5 minute hit piece? That will have traction.

 

It's not the fault of the reporters, they have to publish what people want to see.

 

I blame the ever dwindling attention span of the public.

    • 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
