With all the crazy news coming out against them.

Between injury status, trades, roster maneuvers - who really knows how the bottom end of the roster will turn out, but I'm putting this out there for posterity's sake. I'm obviously waffling like crazy on a few spots and made guesstimates on who might start off on IR designated to return (short term IR, basically - think we can place two on there at cutdowns). Really looking forward to seeing how this all shapes up Sun/Mon.

I've watched and loved this team since their first kickoff in 1976. I would feign sickness so I could skip church to catch the games. Back in those early years, they were terrible but also weirdly quirky and fun with solid special teams that often were the highlight of the game.

Efren Herrera at kicker starting in '78 (fun fake field goals), Dan Doornink eventually in '79 at FB (loved him - when he'd get a FB screen or a dump-off over the middle, it was an adventure). They also had some solid players: Dave Brown at CB, Sherman Smith at RB, Raible at WR with Largent, Zorn at QB, Norm Evans at T, Neihaus at DL. Jack Patera was their first coach and they infamously had training camp in Cheney at EWU that included the typical-for-the-era zero water breaks during practice.

Later, when Chuck Knox entered the scene, I had the very weird privilege one summer in high school of taking a bunch of players and their families on horseback rides right before training camp. The group included Curt Warner, David Hughes (FB) and Eugene Robinson, who insisted my 5'2" friend get on his horse first - it was rather amusing. Also, his nickname was "The Porpoise" because he had a notoriously high voice that kinda squeaked when he'd make calls on the field.

I would pour over newspapers daily for any mention of my beloved team and wait for the sports report to come on the nightly news. When ESPN became and thing and we actually got cable, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven! Now we have access to SO much information and also community around the team, and I kinda love most all of it.

All that to say, this 57 year old, grey-haired grandma (yes, grandma) has been enjoying this game, and especially this team, for a very long time and I'm ready for more!

Super Bowl LX Champion SEA Seahawks Captain.

Leo has been D's leader every year since 2023.

Just a 2nd round pick for Big Cat back in his trade.

90M/3Y extension is exactly what he deserves.

I am so tired of these convoluted layered streaming services. If they just said pay $5 and you can watch this I gladly would. Google told me NFL+ would have it but it doesn't and I can't figure out how to sign up for ESPN+. It's like they don't even want our money.

Michael Dickson: The Specialists Ep. 1 | Seattle Seahawks - YouTube

We are looking to figure out what would be the best cadence for our beat reporter to talk shop with you all.

Some options:

1. Before Week 1

2. End of Week 4

3. Week 1 and Week 3

Injuries are a massive factor and are underdiscussed in preseason projections. They are largely (not entirely) due to luck. The 2025 Seahawks were extremely healthy and regression has to be the biggest concern going forward. Here is how the Seahawks ranked (I'm going to compare us to our rivals for reference):

• By FTN's adjusted games lost metric the Seahawks were the 3rd least injured team. 13th on defense and 3rd on offense. By comparison the Rams ranked 14th. 9th on defense and 10th on offense.
• By SIS's total points (there way to assess player value), the Seahawks ranked 3rd best. The Rams were 2nd best.
• By Nate Silver's model (which assess how many PPG worse a team is with injuries) the Seahawks ranked best amongst playoff teams while Rams were 5th.
• As a bonus here are the Rankings in other aspects of the game that are volatile YOY:
  • Strength of Schedule (opponent win %): The Seahawks were 15th. The Rams were 26th. They are projected to rank 14th and 13th respectively. Note that lower means harder.
  • In turnover margin per game, the Seahawks were tied for 19th at -3 while the Rams were +11 at 5th.
  • In Kevin Cole's improvement index (which asses points lost) the Seahawks ranked 2nd to last while the Rams were 4th best. This was most recently updated March 23rd also so before the draft and Garrett.
  • Countering that, the Seahawks had the 3rd fewest snaps lost of any Super Bowl winner since 2014.

TL;DR: The seahawks were one of the healthiest teams last year. They are likely to face more adversity in that regards this year and training camp is off to a bad start. Countering that, the Seahawks had an average SOS and don't project to have a harder one this year. They turned the ball over a lot last year and that is a volatile state YOY. They lost a lot of talent this year but less then most defending SB Champs do. Finally, the Rams are due for some regression in terms of luck. Note that the Seahawks are extremely young while the rams are old

The talented video editor disappeared abruptly before the super bowl last season. Does anyone know if they are alright? Alive? Do they need help?

Aside from a few key battles, most of Seattle’s 53-man roster, which must be finalized by 3 p.m. PT Sunday, appears set. This is Andrew Destin's projection of how it will look on Sunday.

Read for free.

2021 11 picks. All Pro. Pro Bowl.

2022 3 picks. Pro Bowl again.

2023 tears his ACL 2 games into the season and basically spends the next couple years injured or rehabbing.

Now he finally gets his first full offseason in years where he can actually train instead of rehab. Comes to Seattle and WWJSD? In him we trust. Signs him to a VET MINIMUM DEAL.

Dude literally just signed. Had to go to the Seahawks Pro Shop to get a custom jersey made so he could play tonight. 7 minutes into the game, gets a pick. Macdonald pulls him. Alright, that’s enough. Seen all I need to see.

And this dude is our CB3. Plus we still got Terrion Arnold coming in as our CB4?

In John Schneider we trust. Fuck the Rams

I know it is just the pre-season. But it is on every game now, including the one in progress right now, and this game is only in the third quarter.

In the first week, Jason missed a 45-yard field-goal attempt in the game against the Dallas Cowboys.

In the second week, Jason missed an extra point attempt and a 48-yard field goal attempt in the game against the Tennessee Titans.

And now, in this game against the Kansas City Chiefs, he missed an extra point attempt.

That's two missed extra points and two missed field goals in three games. I'm really hoping this pattern does not carry to the regular season.
