Don't rely on Seahawks - that's why they sleep
Renton, Wash - The guy who ran around the middle of the Seattle Seahawks using No. 33 was Tedric Thompson. He is the second year of security in Colorado, and here they talk to him like he is the next new iPhone.
The Seahawks formed Thompson in the fourth round in 2017 because they knew they had further problems. They may not know the specifics - that Kam Chancellor will have a career neck injury, that Earl Thomas will survive for a new contract, and Richard Sherman will tear Achilles off and be released - but the Seahawks view their contract and salary situation and know they will not be able to withstand Secondary old "Legion of Boom" together even longer. So they chose four defenses in the draft, and Thompson seemed like he was ready to start.
This is how the Seahawks believe it must work.
"I'm happy with what we did," said coach Pete Carroll. "I am very happy with this group, and that is because of what they show and everyone cannot imagine - beyond can not imagine that we can play good football, but we will see." Oh yeah, the Seahawks know what you think of them. Here, in an isolated lake soccer lab in the upper left corner of the country, they know what they say. It is over. It's finished. That losing staff to defense - the six starts of last season gone - has emptied them, that they still have not set an offensive line or run and their time as an eternal playoff and Super Bowl contenders have come to an end. These people have internet. They know.
But how shocked are you if the narrative is wrong? If there is an NFL team in West Foxborough, you can imagine with your thumb in the eyes of this type of conventional wisdom, is he crazy to think that this is "we believe in us" a group? The team with coach Benjamin Button and quarterback ended each press conference with "Go Hawks"? Isn't that just about the Seahawkiest thing you can imagine if they won the right when everyone was ready to move?
"All I know wins as Seahawk," said Wright. "And I don't expect things to change now, I expect the standard to remain the same. I hope we win NFC West as we always do."
Dare to speak, and in a minute here, we will get the reason behind it. But first, a little reality check. The Seahawks did not win NFC West last season. They went 9-7 honored despite all their superstar injuries on defense, but they lost three of their last four games and released the playoffs for the first time since 2011.
One of their three December losses is a 42-7 loss at the hands of the Rams, who will finish 11-5 and win the division. That loss is widely praised as an ever-changing game, and indeed, now is the Rams entering 2018 as a consensus choice to win the West. The same consensus imagined the Seahawks in rebuilding, especially because the players who had moved were proven champions and high-level players who could not be replaced.
"This is really related to people here and what they do together and all that," Carroll said. "He will not be the same, he will be different, it is different and it always becomes unique to existing players, so there are those who say, 'Will the culture change?' No. Culture doesn't change, philosophy doesn't change, people change, and they bring their special dynamics and traits and their uniqueness to them, and they become them, and that's what we do. "
Look, it's not as if they are stupid. Players and coaches of the Seahawks know that Sherman and Chancellor and Michael Bennett and Thomas (if he abstains) will not be easily replaced. They knew it was not good that Wright and first choice Rashaad Penny and top recipient Doug Baldwin all faced injuries and this season had not yet begun. They know the Rams are good and the 49 comes and it won't be easy to get back up.
