Seahawks' success will come down to more than just ‘letting Russ cook’
As Russell Wilson enters his 10th year as starting quarterback of the Seattle Seahawks, he looks to bounce back from what some called a disappointing 2020-21 season.

Richard Sherman wants to rekindle love affair with Seahawks after repeatedly backhanding them
Over the past ten years, cornerback Richard Sherman has been one of the league’s top defenders, when healthy.

Everything John Schneider does is stupid and inexplicable
Seahawks general manager John Schneider continues to make me a very angry Seahawks fan. So, Schneider, let’s check in to see what you’ve done today to piss me off.

The Seahawks still seem haunted by that one decision six years ago
Everyone in Seattle seems a little too intent on saying what the situation isn’t. Russell Wilson isn’t asking for a trade. The Seahawks aren’t looking to trade him. Everything is fine, don’t mind us. But if…...

It's been a while since we've talked about Buffalo in the context of a Super Bowl run
In one week, the Bills will be in the AFC title game for the first time in 27 years, when, perhaps in a bit of foreshadowing — depending on the outcome of Sunday’s divisional playoff — Buffalo hammered Kansas City, 30-13, to advance to Super Bowl XXVIII....
After building the Seahawks, GM John Schneider is now destroying the Seahawks
Seahawks’ John Schneider is a mediocre General Manager riding on the coattails of two Hall of Fame draft classes nearly a decade ago, and Head Coach Pete Carroll still thinks he has his 2014 roster. In a league that is seemingly always saying “what have you done for me lately,” why don’t Schneider a...

Wildcats lose by 63, Gators squander tight game by throwing shoe

Kyler Murray & scrappy Cards follow the script, but lose the plot late vs. Seahawks
If you love narratives, and any producer of a sports broadcast most certainly does, Thursday night’s NFL game had the most easy-to-reach one imaginable.

It’s one of the oldest cliches in baseball, which means it’s one of the oldest cliches in American society. But it happens to be true. Whatever happens in the previous game doesn’t really carry over.
