Field = F Locker room = D+ Woof.

I obviously agree we should have been building through the draft at OL all along. Not in in swoop. Just each year addressing it. That would have been the prudent approach. But like everything with this franchise from the owner on down they have had the "get there itis". The bad trade they made to select Bryce Young meant throwing out any and all logical pathways. They cannot make this mistake anymore. From here on build methodically and allow QB to resolve itself organically. When the time comes if we need to draft one we will have a well rounded roster with which to develop him in.

This is welcome news.

Sexton was very likeable and played hard but he also had his cons. I agree this is a big upgrade all around. Hopefully he ends up sticking around too since he has local ties.

I'll believe it when I see it if a deal actually happens. But if so great. Go younger in the QB room altogether.

What would significantly help serve the next QB is a balanced roster sir. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total Here take a gander at the salary cap totals to the offensive line for each team for 2026. Take note of how far down the list a number of playoff teams and the current Super Bowl champions are.

Blowing out the Bulls in Chicago is always nice. Looks like Coby White is going to fit in here nicely.

I can see the logic but the glaring issue remains. His hands are not good. I remember when we tried to make Swole Bones a thing at TE. If it were that easy we wouldn't have had such a void at the position over the years.

I am all for BPA this draft. And no trading up. Let the chips fall where they may.

Also worth noting. The Seahawks were 23rd in OL spending for 2025.

That's because everything that has been done offensively the last 2 years has been about trying to get instant results to justify the selection of Bryce Young instead of methodically building the roster up in 2024 and 2025. The OL is what it is at this point in time. They cannot treat it as if they have to completely solve it in one offseason because even with an elite OL Bryce's limitations are there on the tape for anyone to see. We should do what we can within reason for the OL and focus on filling out a more balanced roster.

That seat is definitely warm.

He and Caldwell seem like wasted hires. But good luck to him I guess.

Please enlighten why it's a good thing that our now 4th year QB got swept and outplayed by a rookie 2nd round pick bud.

We all watched as our #1 pick couldn't complete a single pass in 4 downs with the game on the line after a guy pushing 40 walked down the field and kept all 3 timeouts in his pocket. The bar for some folks here is just having a QB that exists I guess.

The Icky injury certainly complicates things. But Morgan backed himself into this corner with Center. I feel he might be getting a little complacent and forgetful of how horrific the position was just a few years ago.

Bold strategy.

There are a lot of hollow talking heads out there. Respect to Barkley.

Guys let's not lose sight of the goal here. Ironically Dave Canales buddy Pete Carroll is a good example. In his later years with the Seahawks they "made the playoffs". Never went anywhere. Pete left town with his best friend Geno Smith and immediately proceeded to faceplant. Meanwhile the Seahawks hired a new coach traded away their best WR and signed Sam Darnold and they are your Super Bowl champions. Just because we backed our way into the playoffs going winless against New Orleans and barely splitting with the imploding Bucs for a 4-6 record in the last 10 games with the 26th passing offense does not mean we should be having a parade. Dave Canales team needs to take control of the division in 2026. Simple and plain.

Getting swept by the rebuilding Saints with a rookie 2nd round pick behind center is unforgivable.

Depending on what the asking price is we should inquire but if this FO is going to succeed we need to hit on one in the draft. This team was built on linebackers. If all we can do is overpay free agents to assemble a decent LB room we might as well clean house.

The NBA is a very fickle league. Kon is one of the hottest rookies in years and beyond just his play on the court he is a very steady competitor and that translates to the rest of the team. That has been a glaring absence with the culture of this franchise through the bulk of the LaMelo Ball years that's just being completely blunt and realistic. The enigma of LaMelo Ball is he is entering year 6 and still either red hot or ice cold. We need him to find that sweet spot. Logic dictates the Hornets will want to see this core again next year. But the clock is beyond ticking at this point. It's put up or shut up. Especially considering what the Thunder managed to do recently. I'm hopeful they can keep these wins rolling in and get some much needed playoff experience under their belts which will help substantially.

I can't stop laughing at how huge they made the football in comparison to Bryce. I think they're just trolling us.

This is Kon Knueppel's team. Need to move forward as such after the season.

Stability in terms of culture and whatnot sure we are night and day from the Rhule foolishness. In terms of playcalling and in game management and needing to somehow reflect on the fact he should have kept the hot hand going when Rico Dowdle was playing as well as he was ehhhhhhh. He's also led us to the 30th and 26th passing offenses the last two years. And he needed other teams to do the lifting for us just to win a pitiful iteration of the NFCS. Dave Canales has as much to prove in his third year as just about anyone else in the league.
