Am I the only who thinks we played well but the seahawks played better?

Many seem to want to try pin the blame on somebody or multiple people without acknowledging that we played very good but the Seahwaks just played better.

It's really that simple, they did not dominate us but they won. Sure that's the only thing that matters at the end of the day but I feel encouraged about the way we kept it close and had a play or 2 gone our way we'd be feeling on top of the world right now.

The seahawks are just flat out good and deserving of the hype they have received thus far. I think if we play that well against the Bills we will score more points and give us less than 12 and beat them handily.

I am not at mad at any one single player or coach this week in spite of the loss. That's the first time I can remember being able to say that after a loss in a long time if ever. I any this because nobody did more harm than they did good for us this week. There was no player who played terrible from beginning to end like Nakumara and Fua used to do. Same thing can be said for the coaches in the sense that they didn't blatantly cost us the game but actually did well all things considered.

Fox quotes are extremely fitting for is game.

Olsen picked a bad day to drop 2 passes, Deangelo picked a bad time to cough up the ball.

The other team just simply made more plays at the end of the day.

Stats are for losers because they far from tell the story in this game.

So we lost a hard fought game, therefore it is what it is.

Moral victories is a stupid catch phrase on this board so reply with moral victories ftw if you'd like but your just making an ass of yourself IMO.

So we are 0-1 but proved we can hang with the best in the league and the players themselves feel confident we will see them again in January. Polar opposite of the dejected post game feelings they had last year after losses.

If we lose again next week I will be sick to my stomach because the better team on paper will have lost. So if we win that game like we should we still won't know what we're made of IMO until we get to go against the Giants again in week 3 in a revenge game of what was the worst loss we have had yet under Rivera.

No you're like the 5000th person who thinks the seahawks are a good team now while never mentioning how great that were before the game

I didn't think they were that great but they proved me wrong. As a matter of a fact I am already writing Buffalo off in this thread but I shouldn't until I see their game against New England.

I like everyone else who likely underestimated Seattle was using all the wrong ways to judge them, should have watched a few of their games before doing so and I didn't.

Speaking of which has anyone seen the Patriot-Buffalo game?

The talent is here, the coaching is not.

I know it's one game but I'm sick of Rivera's conservatism, poor game management and lack of in-game adjustments. I lobbied for Ron this off-season because I honestly believed him when he said that he regretted playing NOT to lose. And yet, here we are again. Nothing has changed.

 

If our O-line and secondary is so bad how is the talent here?

 

This is the first year we actually have the talent needed to compete on defense.  Lets see how it goes.  maybe you are right.  I am not saying you are wrong.  But it is the first game against a good team.  Just take a step back and a deep breath.  We will know more in the coming weeks

    • I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.   
    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
