They are 3-3 when they should be tanking for Young or Stroud.

Nope.... I disagree with the 'tank' approach. Stroud or Young isn't necessarily going to save some shit team. Yah it happens, but RARELY.

A winning culture, coaching staff, and locker room (at least with NFL) is far greater than what a #1 overall QB (assuming you can draft one) is going to bring. I've said it all offseason and never changed my stance (if you guys want to dig up old posts and I said it I'm happy to eat crow), do not tank a season for draft picks. That's one of the stupidest moves in the NFL.

Or go 8-9 and miss the playoffs and a chance at a really good QB?

I mean Jesus DJ, at this point you're like a guy that realized he's not going to fuck the chick and wants a sympathy blowjob.

My point is, IF Seattle makes the playoffs there's a LOT of things going right. You've got a young group of guys that are putting together a winning team. Given the number of early draft picks Seattle has, you can build on that and create a future winning/SBOWL contender. Yes the QB position is probably the hardest and most position in all of sports, but surround the guy with enough talent (through draft and free agency - which is easier to do with a winning team) and you may have something. If one of the QBs was a sure lock absolutely 100% franchise defining thing, then we'd see far more ridiculous trades than we actually see.

I'm not saying Geno is the answer. We're 1/3 of the way through the season. Maybe Geno sucks the rest of the year, in which case yah... you start scouting/looking immediately. But as of now, if you're a Seahawks fan - you should be ABSOLUTELY 100% rooting for the team to make the playoffs. It is going to be way better gains than a top 5 draft pick or rookie QB. There's still 21 other players out there.

Gonna finish this beer and have some vanilla ice cream with 2 Heath cookies.

I don't know why, but the fact you described the brand of cookies and the precise number of '2', was quite amusing to me:pound:

League's 4th ranked defense being the first to intercept the great Cooper Rush. Two late offseason acquisitions that Howie made involved in that.

Eagles have led by at least 14 points in all their game this year.
