Seattle Seahawks VS Atlanta Falcons NFL Preview: Once again, it’s all on the quarterback’s shoulders

1. I expect this game to be played like it means something! Need a total TEAM effort

2. Going to take time to wean out Carrol's players. (Most of them are use to his system). Then Mike will have his team. Patience is needed for a rookie coach generally in the NFL. Can take 2 and sometimes 3 drafts. If the coach makes it that far. All there injuries do not help even though they have gotten several back. (hopefully 90-95% heathy).

3. I doubt they win this one. Falcons have looked good lately.

4. If the season depends on a quarterback that is not even making that much (at least at this time), the responsibility is on John and the coaching staff.

5. 😂

6. Our D line will be the difference maker in this game, especially with Murphy back. DK should play safety, maybe🤣 he'd be like Kam Chancellor out there! Let him hit people! that's what he wants to do most, it seems!

7. After the next 2 games (Falcons and Bills) will Seattle be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline?

8. It's John running this team. It's the same thing happened in Dallas

9. I'm gonna be at this game tomorrow! Definitely not going to expect a W with how things have been lately, but it's all a part of the process nonetheless. Let's hope we can at least see something better all around if we ultimately take the L, the evidence of improvement is what's key for this season.

10. I don't mean to be negative but Ken Walker is no Marshawn Lynch. I love the effort from him but he just doesn't have the size necessary to be an effective primary back for us… especially behind this current line. Our running game is really what's been hurting us the most, but also our defense and not forcing turnovers. When Carroll was here he emphasized winning the turnover margin.

11. Realistically I don't see this team have the fire. I think macdonald says all the right things but he is also bewildered as to how ineffective this team is. It will take 2-3 years to fix.

    But this team knows how to operate when it's an underdog and I don't count backups out. regardless, go hawks. 36-19

12. There is not a single blue-chip player on our roster. 0. Nada. No one. Mediocrity at every level on both sides. Our punter, Michael Dickson, may be the only blue-chip player.

13. Were gonna see how much an impact murphy has

14. Time for Schneider to go…. it was time years ago.

15. Geno FC we are back

16. 4th string rookie RT. 5th string rookie CB. Sadly it will come down to Geno playing perfect and the defense getting at least one or two stops to keep the game close enough for Geno to win.

17. The last few years, the team has gotten 2 to 3 extra wins from Pete Carroll being a hall of fame coach.
    When they told Mike McDonald he was inheriting a playoff caliber team they lied. Jim Harbaugh did get a legitimate 9 win team to start with. Who's got a better than a Harbaugh? Nobody!

18. Mike needs to show us something. I understand it’s his first year, he’s young and trust me I’m a huge Macdonald fan, and was one of the people already penciling him in as a good coach. He needs to start showing us this is at least headed in the right direction because there have been absolutely zero signs of that these past 3 weeks.

19. Brandon. They need to draft better. They are 25th or whatever in scores allowed because they inherited the same players and replaced some with same or below players.
    There are no longer Richard Sherman, Earl Thomas, Kam Chancelor, Bobby Wagner, KJ Wright, Michael Bennet, Cliff Avril and etc.
    The bottom line is this. The current roster needs to play well first and get better from their experiences. That's the only way, Brandon.
    Do you think Devon Witherspoon is a star? Get out please. These guys at least need to make their names for themselves, man.
    These guys are NOTHING until they play at the expected level when we got Mike Macdonald. What is going on is not only unacceptable but absolutely unbelievably bad.

20. 12's are so fickle. Sky is falling. The fans that got here when we went to the super bowl with Russ. None of you have been through adversity. Seahawk fans (thats what those before that Russ rookie year are called) understand this is apart of growing when you reset. Are their faults? Yes. But there was a lot of faults with Pete. You guys all forget the mediocrity he has done for so long.
