The thing is, people will argue profusely that the Seahawks aren’t bad (some will of course scream that they are), and I believe this. However…not being bad doesn’t make us good. It doesn’t. We have a bad defense, and an offense that should be good but can’t get it together.
Can we improve? Sure. Can we be good? No, not really. We can be less embarrassing, and given the “any given Sunday” effect we can certainly win some.
But because we’re not awful, we don’t get those games changing draft choices, so we have to find game changers by drafting way better than anyone else, and we’re not doing it. The last 2 drafts have been good, but man we’re just not really closing the gap.
This team is closer to 4-6 than 9-1 by way of playing. They have good corners, ok safeties, but backers and D-line are bad and awful respectively.
Offensively they have good receivers, ok TE’s, and then an O-line that waffles between ok at best and awful at worst, and a QB that frankly this year has also waffles between ok at best and awful at worst.
We are just not good!
I agree on some points, for me the offense shortcomings fall on Waldron. Felt this way for most of the season, but the Ravens game is when i really lost it. The defense honestly can be good but the weird play calling, communication issues and weakness in the middle is doing us in. When i say weakness in the middle i mean the incapability of this team to cover the middle at all!
