As any smart football fan would, you can't sit there and say that was a good win nor could it sit well with you. The cracks in the seahawks foundation are starting to show when you struggle that bad against winless teams.

A win is a win.
Seahawks had to claw and scrap their way to a shitty overtime win, at home, against an 0-8 Tampa team during the Super Bowl run in 2013. But it was a win. Helped get the #1 seed. Got the ring.

That team actually had a competent O-Line, unlike this years.
Don't get me wrong, your defense is good, probably second best to Denver, but that O-Line is going to kill you against a competent pass rush much like it did with St. Louis.
Other differences; your OC has turned Jimmy Graham into a very expensive decoy and Marshawn is starting to show his age.
I am not saying it is impossible you guys make it back to the SB, but you will need to find ways to score because the teams you may play, AZ, GB, ATL, hell, even CAR all can.

All valid points - I'm not disparaging the weaknesses of the 2015 Seahawks, of which there are plenty. Tom Cable's cobbled up OLine is an experiment that has been flawed for years, with this season hitting a new low. Wilson is getting sacked at a near-record pace. Not good.
However, 2-2 is a lot better than 1-3. I'll take it, simply put. And Kam Chancellor is a god.

It's one thing for your team to get a shitty win and say "well the team certainly didn't play well and got a little lucky, but a win is a win." It's another to say "Seahawks [scrappy, ugly] win. Fuck y'all" and act like your team is the biggest, and baddest in the league and you're the biggest, baddest fan in the league. Just say your team sucked and got a lucky win and move on. You're from Seattle. Nobody's buying the hardo act.

we may come off as douchebag bandwagon fans but you come across as a pretentious pats fan so lets keep the name calling to a minimum hey? we banned hey dude its me for a reason.
i dont think iv once said this hawks team is flawless. i actually think iv been ragging on them. but hey they scrapped a w against a shitty team and have more time to prep and get better. hopefully they actually do get better.

Oh, you're completely fine, nothing I said was directed towards you in any way. There are some good Seahawks fans out there, I know that, just not nearly as many as all the 12th man bullshit that Seattle fans never miss an opportunity to tell you about would like the rest of the world to think. Also, I don't think I called anyone any names, but I could be wrong.
Additional also, after all the bullshit the Pats and all their fans went through with Deflate gate last offseason, I feel I've fully earned the right to be as pretentious as I want, so that isn't going to stop. I know I'm being obnoxious and unreasonable, and normally I wouldn't act this way, but after deflate gate my attitude is pretty much fuck everybody. And yeah, a lot of this stems from having lived in Seattle last year and having to deal with all the morons there who only read headlines from the shitty Seattle media (I mean really, going to Boston, taking pictures of places that aren't even a part of the parade route then using them to say that nobody went to the Patriots Super Bowl parade even though more people went to the Pats one than the Seahawks the year before? What the fuck is that?) and think that means they know all the facts and have a valid, well-informed opinion. So I'm probably going to be more of a dick towards Seattle than anyone else, but you guys have earned it. Don't take it personally.

The only Seahawk's player I have an ounce of respect for is Bobby Wagner. The guy is quietly the best all around middle linebacker in the league, second only to Luke Keuchly (if second at all). He lays the wood, he is athletic enough to cover the pass, and he is the commander of the defense.
Kam Chancellor & Richard Sherman are two of the biggest frauds in the National Football League. Chancellor holds out for several weeks because he's not making enough money but comes back becuase "God forgives all and so can I." Kam, you hung your team out to dry you fucking fraud.
Richard Sherman is a self-proclaimed intellectual and "best" cornerback in the league. He plays one side of the field and plays zone. But hey, stats speak for themselves I guess. Same way guys like Matt Stafford throw for 5,000yds a season but can't seem to win a playoff game. Same way Joe Flacco throws for 30 TDs a year but is still a fucking pud whose only strengths are the deep ball and throwing to the right side of the field. HE ONLY THROWS TO ONE SIDE! Richard Sherman only covers the number one wide receiver if the receiver happens to line up on his side. I don't much care if you have a thousand interceptions if they came against a bunch of shmuck 2's and 3's.
Russell Wilson is a mental midget. The Seahawk's DJ can't play Future pregame because he fathered a child with Ciara hahahahaha. He seems to think some tonic water prevented him from getting a concussion? He is either the greatest troll ever, or a complete moron.
Marshawn, you're act is tired. You've been on countless TV shows and showcased you have a personality. Get over yourself. Maybe it's time you get bout that retirin', boss.
Never forget... HALO!
I should mention that I am rarely this outspoken about players or a team. I just can't stand it any longer. They are all great players in their own right, but the Seahawk's and their fan-base are intolerable.

He has a contractual obligation to speak to the media. His act is shameless self-promotion and douchebaggery. He runs hard, he's insanely fun to watch, but on the podium he's a complete loser. Every other player in the league does it, you are not special.
13515042:BenWhit said:
So true. It's almost as if he doesn't understand that the only reason he's able to make so much money is because of the media and the broadcasting companies that televise him running around holding a ball to millions of people. His whole thing is just ridiculous.

I was shocked too. Really saw how the Seahawks struggle against slot receivers (Sanu) and that O-Line against a really good defensive line. Your OC also needs to be fired. He was so predictable and his calls were questionable at times.
Gronk is throwing people out of the club but jesus that O-Line needs to keep Brady off the ground.

I hate bye week ... watched the packers rams game today. The packers D stepped up, Rodgers had a off game, finally threw a pick at home. Rams O couldn't do shit.
Can't believe the Cheifs let Cutler win.

He would be useful in carolina right now. Charles Johnson is out until maybe thanksgiving, which funny enough is the Dallas game.

Yeah, pretty terrible performance from the Pats yesterday. It's almost as if they didn't care if Brady got hit or not. Defense looked alright (granted against an offense missing its starting qb and best wide receiver), but offensively just not up to standard. Hopefully it's just a result of coming off a bye week. Beating Indy by anything less than 50 will be not just unacceptable, but shameful, and they'll have to step it up from this weeks performance to do so.

Noooo! Aaron Rodgers streak for home interceptions ended yesterday. At least they won.

Actually, if you read carefully, you'll see I haven't said anything to anyone, and even specifically said I had no problem with Bakerpow, except that one kid who came in here acting like he and the Seahawks were heroes for beating the Lions, an 0-5 team, because of a completely botched call from the refs. As long as you aren't saying stupid things, we'll have no problem.

Not a kid. A boy. Get your fucking facts right.
Besides, that game was so last week. And KJ Wright was the only one that was going to make any play on the ball. Get over it.

Well at least the packers lost, but theyre still gonna go to the NFC championship game so who cares? I would love for the vikings to miraculously spoil green bays party and win the division tho somehow.
Also that cowboys/hawks game was a snoozefest. Still not as bad as the philly/dallas game. That was easily the worst football game ive ever seen and thats coming from a lions fan.
Also found out detroit is royally fucked if they start offing their talents too other teams so lolllllll this season just keeps getting better and better.

Ya but same with last year. The nfc south was won with a losing record. The nfc east has just taken its place this year, and its still not nearly as terrible. Look at the falcons, raiders, jets, vikings, panthers. I think this year is awesome with a bunch of new teams in the mix. Hell even though their records arent great the bucs, and jaguars have finally proven they can at least make games interesting. Both are playing significantly better than they have in years.
Idk ive watched every game this year and besides a couple games havent really been left disappointed. I mean ya no team is nearly as exciting or good as your pats, maybe thats whats ruining it for you haha

It's more than the qbs, everyone overlooks a good offensive line. A good oline is the difference between a good qb and a good rb as well. Denver is a good example of this, both cj and ronnie got tds but that's because they just ran through holes, it wasn't like they did anything spectacular. There are plenty of awesome qbs too on every team but as soon as they feel pressure or can't find an open receiver or their rb gets tackled in the backfield, everything changes.
