We all love the Seahawks and football. We all want to see them win a Super Bowl again, I think I didn’t stop smiling for the entire Spring and Summer of 2014. But what makes you enjoy being a fan the most? Personally, I love being able to cheer for a competitive team. A team that has a chance to win every week, and you know will be playing meaningful games in December. I know everybody’s different in their fandom and there is no right or wrong answer to this, it’s completely subjective, but what makes you the happiest as a football fan?

So the question is, would you prefer the Seahawks perform to the level they have the last several seasons: meaning winning seasons, always competitive, but can’t quite seem to ever get over that hump in the playoffs and kick it into second gear, always feeling like they’re one offseason away from being a true contender? OR having 3, 4, 5 seasons of losing football with a shorter window for deep playoff success, largely due to routine high draft positioning?

I ask this because personally, I feel like a lot of current Seahawks fans are spoiled. I’m in my 30s now and have been a Seahawks fan my entire life. And I can honestly say I’m enjoying every moment of this Pete and John run program while it’s here, because I’ve lived through true mediocrity and irrelevancy. I completely understand the argument for wanting to move on from Pete and trying something new, but I’m genuinely curious what people realistically want out of this team as a fan, what makes you happy, and what you consider to be a successful season. And please don’t say winning the Super Bowl every year, because that is not how life works.

    At a minimum, I want to reasonably believe we can win at least one playoff game. I do not enjoy missing out on the top half of the draft just for the right to be Wild Card road kill.
