Official Huddle Playoff Tickets Contest #2 - Pure Poetry


Zod

Recommended Posts

I tried several times to get some inspiration, but just can't do it.

 

This might have something to do with the fact that I already reached the pinnacle of poetry with my entry in the podcast poetry competition in 2011 just before we drafted cam.

 

I feel I captured the schism on the huddle well, and united us all for what would be a meteoric rise to greatness.

 

You're welcome, huddle.

 

 

Two thousand and ten, 'twas short on glory;
It ended with mercy, so bitter the story.
The huddle was angry, the huddle was graceless;
So filled with Cam lovers calling all racists.

Roiled we were, so divided we fell;
Unite we could not, nor quarrels we quelled.
Leave it to me, I'll bring us together;
Each line view again, but just the first letter.

The Prowl

They know not
From whence it came
The force
The confusion
The terror that filled them
It started modestly
And built into a monster
A leviathan
A mammoth
Nay, a Kraken
Many had fought
And most had fallen
For this Kraken came not alone
But with superheroes and warriors
The next challenger shall enter
And they shall fight
But this collection of monsters
Shall not go silently into the night.
They wait.
They crave.
They thrive on the doubt given.
They stalk.
They hunt.
The prowl is all they know.
Their Vault is their domain
And many naysayers
Have left with no champion
For the abyss was their birth
And with it came their fury.

    • 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
