Fields is a specialty QB. He has accuracy issues and decision making issues.

If we wind up moving on from Geno, I would rather we look for an older reclamation project ala Sam Darnold and draft a QB in the first 3 rounds.
Darnold going get paid and I don't see JS wanting to do that. RW may be available, Fields maybe, Daniel Jones, Minshew. I think JS reworks Geno contract, maybe signs one of the above if they are willing to sign for super cheap otherwise go with Howell, maybe draft a QB late for the practice squad. Probably the only realistic path available.

Daniel Jones...no
Minshew...no
RW...That would be interesting but probably JS wouldn't do it.
Fields I think would be the best of the bunch on a prove it deal.

Oh I didn't mean to suggest we should go after Darnold. I was using him as an example of the kind of QB we should look to get.

if we are going to consider signing and starting fields you might as well just fire schneider and start over from scratch. he has utterly failed to find a QB and refuses to build an OL worth a shit. macdonald unfortunately is collateral damage.
Cheaper on a prove it deal. If Fields is that bad than high draft pick in 2026.
and then fire everyone

I'd like us to find a competent OC this offseason. I feel like that would help.
Like who? Teams with good offenses have had their staff pluck clean yearly. It also means MacDonald has to go through another learning experience with a new guy who likely can't do any better as long as the OL is getting run over regularly. Seahawks are stuck with Geno for another year for lack of a better alternative, so lets try to improve the OL in the draft (despite it not being a good year for OL) if possible, otherwise BPA in a draft that's lacking.

There aren't many choices right now.

Yeah the Hawks had options at QB Last year and the year before and didnt take them when they 100% should have. Now they are pretty much in the "No Option" zone. It's not zero but not anywhere as good as it was even just a year ago. This is because they stuck with Geno and believed in him a little to much. This is Geno this is who he was when he was young, He looks like oh thats very good then he punches you in the face. Every damn time.

we say this every year but schneider has no interest in it. its time to move from him.

which is why they will stick with geno and be mediocre again next year. they will win just enough games to miss out on drafting a decent QB. might be better to sign fields or start howell for a year then clean house and draft manning #1 overall. maybe its our turn to finally pick first.

Fields is the best of the bunch which isn't saying much but he'll be cheap or go Howell his final year and maybe by shear luck Dillion Gabriel falls.

pass. if we are taking a QB this draft it should be drew allar. but depending on how he plays in the playoffs he may get picked too early.

There's a good chance he stays his senior year.

Who on this club would servive a 2 or 3 win season? I can't imagine anyone would from the lowest coaches through the FO. Not unless they went in knowing it would happen. Just giving up doesnt sit well with me.

I like MacDonald i think he can be a good coach but this team is going nowhere with schneider calling the shots. It would be insanity to think he will fix the OL after 15 years of this shit.

The thing about QB’s is it’s not a perfect science, look at the 49rs for God sake, they draft a QB number 1 overall and he doesn’t pan out, and now Mr irrelevant has the position looking decent for them for the foreseeable future … My point is QB’s are a crapshoot, some rise at the next level and some don’t.. So even if this next draft class doesn’t look great, there might be a diamond in the rough to be found … We gotta try to upgrade the position, it’s a must …

What were these great options the Hawks had the past 2 years?
