49 comments

1. Let’s be honest. The Seahawks played a home game where all the fans were there to support them on a Sunday night prime time game. On a 4 game win streak giving us some hope. And showed up with no sense of urgency or ❤️ and were not ready to beat the packers. It was a totally pathetic showing in front of the 12s!!! And after Geno got hurt on a no call. In comes our backup quarterback Sam Howell . He was absolutely terrible!!! You guys are professional athletes and get paid well. I expected so much more from our team. To a point to where I really thought we would win this game. Totally Disappointed!!! C’mon Hawks get it together. You’re so much better than this. Go Hawks!!!🤓

2. Can someone plz tell me what a slow start means?

3. This is a weird thing to say start slow

4. I thought the bu center did great

5. You gotta think this can only get better as time goes on. We have 8 wins with a completely incompetent offensive line

6. Have faith 12s, the Packers are a way more solid team, and so is Minnesota, who knows, lady luck might flash her pennies on us this Sunday. Mike McDonald will get us a Superbowl for sure, I have more than enough faith on that, definitely not this year, but we have done better than I could've hoped

7. Geno is my QB I will admit when Russ left I was prolly the biggest hater but hearing stories about this guy and hearing now that bro was up early in the gym back to work . Can’t question that guy ever again let’s go with the Fuckin NFC WEST BABY

8. Great questions Brian

9. Keep pushin positive, coach!! 💪🏾💯👊🏽🔥
   #Hawks4Life 💚💪🏾👊🏽💯💙

10. I no longer look forward to watching Hawks play at home. This is ridiculous.

11. I thought Geno had tunnel vision at times throwing JSN while Metcalf was actually open on the left hash a couple of times .

12. Turn around and look at the damn ball. As soon as you see your guy is running a fly, you sprint to stay with him and turn your head looking for that pick!

13. It sucks to be stuck in mediocracy. It’s been yearsss

14. coach what about the effort from Riq?

15. Geno fucking sucks so I wouldn't give a single shit if he was out the rest of the year. geno, grubb and this entire offense SUCKS!!!!

16. “We are not gonna be the same next week, I can promise you that” – that’s all what it takes. In coach we trust. Let’s go win out!

17. these questions continue to suck major balls

18. MENTALITY AND EXECUTION ARE 2 TOTALLY DIFFERENT THINGS, YOU CAN HAVE THE MENTALITY, BUT IF YOU DONT EXECUTE, WONT MATTER..HOW IN THE HELL DID ALL OUR D LINEMEN GET TOTALLY OUTMUSCLED UP FRONT, WERE PACKERS GUYS JUST STRONGER🤔, HAWKS COULD NOT SHED ANY OF THEIR BLOCKS, THE O LINEMEN TREATED THEM LIKE CHILDREN, JUST PHYSICALLY STRONGER SO THEY COULDNT RELEASE OFF OF THEM AND STOP ANYONE, AND OFFENSE EVEN ABE LUCAS GOT EMBARRASED, LAUMEA AND CROSS TOO, TOSSED LIKE RAGDOLLS, WTF🤬

19. I can't wait until mike gets his QB. Enough of this geno BS

20. After watching the Vikings on defense tonight. I give the Seahawks 0.0 % chance of winning this game on Sunday. The O line is going to get demolished. 😑

21. Get your shit together mike. We need to win and not loae, If geno doesn't play well this game. Pack him up and get him outta here. And tell grubb to call the plays better. If geno can't cut it, Put howell in. Thanks Mac. #12ALLTHEWAY

22. Can we run a draw

23. Next year Tomlinson needs to go and so does RIq and I love Tyler Lock but him too and we need a true center next year! Love Coach Mike!

24. Here are all the reasons the Seahawks lost according to X:
    
    – Bad Uniforms
    
    – John Schneider
    
    – Packer Fans
    
    – Seahawks Season ticket holders
    
    – Geno Smith
    
    – Sam Howell
    
    – Ryan Grubb
    
    – Offensive line
    
    – Riq Woolen

25. hard to feel like grubb is learning from his games and mistakes

26. I don’t see us beating the Vikings, we may beat the bears just maybe knowing us we’ll find a way to lose or make it a close game (it shouldn’t be) and I don’t think we’ll beat the rams…

    Think we focus on next season, move ways from both Geno and Howell, draft a young buck, fix the o-line and get rid of riq woolen

27. Bench Woolen immediately. Put someone who wants to play in.

28. We need to draft the biggest meanest interior offensive linemen left right and a center 123 in this draft 😂 I was wondering how long it would take for geno to get rekt 😂 please let's get it right

29. Hope after season ends our oline needs huge improvements my god. Hope grub tells mike "yoo i need an oline fuck me "

30. We need a quarterback, corner, LB, DE, OL. If we can get lucky and draft good in those we could be really good next year. And have the QB's compete for starting roles next year like when Wilson got pick in 2012

31. Mentality def wasn't where it needs to be in prime time on national TV

32. looking forward to the next game but very optimistic for next year. hopefully seahawks finish strong the rest of the season and make the playoffs

33. I love this coach. I'm on the fence about Grubb. Offense is lacking.

34. Was extremely irritating to see us come out in this game in a pass heavy offense. After what charb did last week we shoulda had no reason give him the rock back to back in those first 2 plays then make a pass okay after that. We keep shooting ourselves in the foot with these Ls but I still believe in this squad so let’s make a run for it! Go hawks!

35. Still in rebuilding mode, maybe try one of the other qbs

36. It’s still Pete Carroll’s roster….Mike better clean house during offseason.

37. Uw took 2yrs to be 1 rank offensive so give grub time to adjust

38. This team was supposed to be drafting in top 10 next yr Seahawks in position to be a 3/4 seed

39. Mike is a brilliant coach the Hawks will get there and be an awesome team this is just not going to happen as quick as us 12’s think 🧐

40. "We've reviewed the tape and Grubb is shit. Next question."

41. Yeah everyone is tough as nails at practice and soft as cheese on Sundays? 😅

42. Fire Carroll again

43. O line got bullied all game I know the packers are good but there whole roster isn’t good the o line shouldn’t have got killed that bad

44. No excuse for DK to be used the way he is. Every top receiver faces the same coverages. They are schemed open. They are wasting his prime. He should never have only 3 targets.

45. Woolen had a performance for the ages. Reminded me of a medieval sewer.

46. if grubb was better at short yardage plays I truly believe Seattle would of been in that game

47. Fire grub, get geno a REAL o line in the offseason, maybe get an extra d tackle

48. They didn’t act like they were excited to play. They played flat. They can do better in front of the 12’s and a national tv audience! The action green uniforms can be permanently put away! Don’t want to be reminded of this game ever.

49. Anyone can call AI game get hart
