You're damn right, and it's a damn shame. Biggest problems come from scouting, drafting, bad trades, etc. Just bad managerial decisions.
Should've kept Lynch, but he was traded for 4th rounder and 5th rounder...Two shitty picks that ended up being offensive tackle Chris Hairston and some other bum named Zebrie Sanders, another tackle. I think he was injured the whole year anyway. But yeah. Up through the 2012 season, Lynch rushed for 3269 yards and 29 touchdowns in 40 games...both being the highest of any running back in the league over the same stretch (past 2 seasons and like 8 weeks of the other one). Also, he has made the pro bowl both years. Also, the Seahawks got into the playoffs both years, and probably will this year too, being 9-1. Huge fucking mistake.
Aaron Maybin was a hugely bad decision too. Drafted first round. 11th pick. Did fucking nothing until he was traded to the Jets. Mind you, guess who was available that we chose to draft Maybin over? Clay fucking Mathews, you know, four consecutive pro bowls and leading a GB defense to a SB win...? Fuck.
Who have we even had at QB that was any good since Jim Kelly or even the Doug Flutie / Drew Bledsoe days? Who did we draft? Losman? He was shit. Edwards? Fitzpatrick lololol?
Speaking of Flutie...Why the fuck did Wade Philips bench him and start Rob Johnson instead? He got the team to 11-5 and got a fucking division championship. So you start someone else in the playoffs and lose to the fucking Titans? (I still think that lateral is illegal but whatever, fucking bullshit). I fucking hate every management decision ever made by this team.
This year is practically a loss. Even if we finish 9-7, that's probably not a wildcard with better teams competing for playoff spots...So like you said, just build chemistry, go through the motions, practice accuracy, etc...And DON'T FUCKING TRADE AWAY YOUR BEST TALENTS, just keep them and develop them. I had really high hopes for the season with a new coaching staff and QB and all that, but it's been so many injuries and problems..., at least they're giving him and CJ the ball sometimes these days, but FUCK man, blocking and playcalling is questionable at best...
Ralph Wilson deserves better, Stevie Johnson deserves better, Jackson deserves better, the fans deserve better, and I hope this is the last year of this shit.
