All you doubters and naysayers who said this team was going to suck should apologize to @JMR and I. We remained confident that this team could be a double digit win team even after going 0-2 and disagreed with the haters that were predicting doom and gloom.
When you have a QB like Russell Wilson you will always be at least decent. And when you give a QB like Russ a competent offensive line, he can do remarkable things.
Regardless of how the team does the rest of the season, there are so many reasons to get excited about this squad. While it was sad to see the Legion of Boom move on from the team, for various reasons, the new guys are looking pretty darn impressive. We already knew Shaq Griffin was going to be good after last year's performance. Tre Flowers continues to show that Pete Carroll knows DBs. Thompson gets better every week. And while Bradley may never be Kam, he's turning into a Pro Bowl level safety.
Our no name DL has been really impressive as well. Guys like Martin and Jefferson have been doing strong work all season.
On the offensive side, how great is it to see a Seahawks drafted WR actually turn into something? I had almost given up hope that we would ever be able to do that. Chris Carson is a stud and we have 2 guys behind him that could be starters with other teams. And our OL has just been fantastic the past 3 weeks. The best OL we've had since, arguably, during the PC years.
Note: No one actually has to apologize. Just wanted to get some positive discussion going about a team that is starting to really gel the way some of us thought it would.
