Seahawks provide intel to Arizona?

I was watching Sports Center tonight and they interviewed a beat reporter with Arizona, at least that's who I think it was. They mentioned that the Seahawks called Arizona to report the size of cleats they had to switch to in order to gain good traction. They even showed each locker in the Cards locker room with the details of which cleats to wear, based on this information. As a result, Arizona is practicing all week with those size cleats.

It's obvious that they will need to make adjustments, but how does a division rival help another? Is this a last stitch effort to "win one over" or perhaps it may provide a validation for a team's dismal season, IF a team from your division wins it all. As if to say, "Well our division is home to the current Super Bowl Champs, so last season makes sense". An excuse if you will.

Or is this fear? Fear of a new NFC "Big Brother".... since apparently the role of the "Little Brother" has been us the last few seasons.

Just trying to see how everyone else felt about this. Would something like sharing intel with our divisional rivals be acceptable? Thoughts?

It's not like people don't make good money to know these things.  I'm pretty sure they would have figured this out anyway and practiced in all lengths of cleats.

Of course, they do. I just found it amusing that a rival would try to help a rival.

    • Based on the NHL cap today ($88M), the Canes have $22.9M in projected space going into the 25-26 season. Seems to be a consensus the cap will increase to $92.5M next season, but let's not assume. The core of this team is locked up for a couple more years, with the only UFAs at the end of this season: Roslovic, Fast, Robinson, Jost, with Orlov and Burns on D. Remember Seth Jarvis's contract? Remember the press it got because the Canes found a loophole that allowed them to get his contract under the cap by using "deferred salary?" Yeah, don't expect that won't be addressed by the league and that loophole closed. That being said, if the Canes decide to sign Necas long term, they should do it next season and they'll probably need to pay him Aho level money- close to $10M a year. Let's assume the team gets through the season without any career or long term injury concerns. And, let's be honest in the conversation. Does Jesper Fast have a place on this team right now or have we found the right combination on the ice that he may not be needed?  Does Brent Burns retire, or will he decide to stay another year? If so, there's a 1-year thank you for your service $6M deal.  If Roslovic shows out this year, that's gonna be a pretty big contract compared to the 1-year, $2.8M he's getting now. He may command around $4.5 - 5M to stay. So, those 2 guys are gonna cost you $11M. Get Necas a new deal at $10M, you're up to $14.5M of the $22.9M in space. So you've got about $8.4M to work in Orlov and Robinson, which is do-able. Plenty of room to work deals and keep every one of the UFAs if the Canes so desire.  
    • Dan is doing a fine job, however, I'm not sold on Canales. I think he needs to give up play-calling duties, but I also realize that this wasn't an easy fix.
