Football General Talk

It is cheap for the NFL. They also built in “outs.” When’s the last time the Seahawks had a losing season. Snyder knows what he’s doing. What’s cheap? His salary is 33.5 million this year. Where does that rank? 18th.

I do get your point. You need to be able to rebuild, but you can’t win without a functional qb. Do you think JJ is the future? Time to deal Jefferson?
I didnt think JJ was ready and wanted Jones signed with an expectation he'd start at least the first year.
 
Still think we make the playoffs.

Meanwhile, THIS is a championship game!
Were close as it was so you might be right.

And look how good Seattle already was before Darnold showed up.

I want Darnold to do well...but long respected Stafford too...never got enough respect in his Lions days IMO. Ok with either team winning just hope it continues to be a good one!
 
Cant do that in a vaccum.

Take away one of either their new free agents guard Frees or Center Kelly, and also take away either cb Murphy Jr. or DTs Allen and Hargrave.

Vikings could not have signed them all had they given Darnold the contract Seattle gave him.

So then compare Darnold behind an O line not nearly as good as Seattle's and the one he had in Seattle.

I’m not arguing with letting him go. It could be true that it was good for all parties. The Vikings are waiting to see though. The Hawks are seeing it right now. I don’t think Sam is a top flight qb, but he’s good enough in our system. Russ was the same and we won a Bowl with him.

Agree...so many fans want to compare to a Mahomes or Josh Allen...well they are rare as hens teeth.

Seattle's a tough place to play...good D and a running game and you don't need a Mahomes or Allen. Although Darnold has as much arm talent...consistency and mistakes have been his problem. A team where he doesn't gave to do it all...like he had to with the Vikings unable to run and poor O line..is perfect for him...not surprised at his success there.
 
Congratulations Seattle! What a turnaround from a year ago, Sam. I never guessed it would come that fast.

Wonder how much Seattle will be favored tomorrow?
