George Kittle cares about your fantasy team.
Kittle said he talked to Aaron Donald while his 10-yard TD was being reviewed last week.
Donald: "Man, you didn't get in?"
Kittle: "I had to get in because my fantasy coaches need me to get more points."
It’s Year 8 for Russ. Probably time to just understand & appreciate that this is 100% authentic & real. It’s what makes him a special leader.
The reason we have a hard time believing it is genuine is because none of us can relate to that level of optimism. That’s not his fault.
Sir, I was in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium when you walked out of a 49ers-Colts game because Colin Kaepernick took a knee. So I hope you understand why many of us don’t believe you.
We believe in law and order in this Country. We condemn violence against property or persons. We will always stand for the right of Americans to peacefully protest and let their voices be heard.
The fact that Marshawn Lynch is willing to come help the
#Seahawks
when they need him most should be worthy of retiring his number, regardless of how it plays out. Nobody should wear No. 24 again.
K.J. Wright said several of the
#Seahawks
younger players were starstruck when they saw Marshawn Lynch in the locker room for the first time.
Apparently many of them tried to play it cool but failed.
Russell Wilson creates weekly 15-page scouting reports and gives them to the entire offense on Wednesdays.
He then quizzes all of his receivers on Thursdays to make sure they're prepared for the opponent's coverages/tendencies.
Aikman: "That's Higbee on Jamal Adams, and it's no contest. ... It's a mismatch with him on Jamal Adams."
That can't be a thing said about the highest-paid safety in football.
My stomach is churning and my mind is racing.
I can't stop thinking about Vanessa Bryant, who has to deal with the unimaginable grief of losing a husband and a child while also bearing the responsibility of helping her other children grieve, find strength and move forward. 🙏💔
This is heartbreaking. The fact that Shaq didn’t talk to Kobe since his final game is a reminder to all of us that we need to do a better job of picking up the damn phone.
Russell Wilson confirmed that he led a first half touchdown drive with the in-helmet communication system completely dark. It was Wilson running the show. Illustrates his mastery of Brian Schottenheimer’s offense.
Total home runs tonight:
Julio Rodriguez -- 81
Juan Soto -- 53
I can't tell you who my champion is and he wears No. 44 for the Mariners.
Congrats to Julio for an epic performance. He made Seattle proud tonight.
This is what I can't wrap my head around:
We live in a bizzaro world where Pete Carroll doesn't trust his top-ranked offense to get 1 inch but continues to have faith in a historically bad defense.
My girlfriend asked me this last night:
“Would you rather spend a happy lifetime with me at the cost of the Mariners never winning a World Series or lose me and they win it this year?”
She wasn’t thrilled that I hesitated, and I am currently tweeting this from the doghouse 🙃
Russell Wilson pulled for a random drug test just now. He thought he was being punked.
“Are you serious?”
He then looked at us.
“Gimme a second, guys.”
His exit interview has been delayed 😂😂😂
Shaquem Griffin said 3 different teams tried to sign him after clearing waivers. The Texans were one of them. He had no intention of leaving Seattle and signed to the
#Seahawks
practice squad.
Apparently Jadeveon Clowney went up to John Schneider's office today just to share how much he enjoyed this season with the
#Seahawks
.
"He loves it here," Carroll said.
The Pete Carroll and John Schneider era will officially live on longer than the Russell Wilson era in Seattle.
Jody Allen has picked the HC/GM combo over the best QB in
#Seahawks
franchise history.
I believed this then & still believe it now:
There was a lot of faux outrage regarding Colin Kaepernick taking a knee simply as a measure to disregard his message completely. So many people had no interest in hearing what he had to say, so they gave themselves an excuse not to.
This is absolutely embarrassing from the
#Seahawks
.
Damien Lewis was down for 2 minutes. Seattle had all day to get a play called. Didn't get out of the huddle until 5 seconds left on the play clock. False start. Punt.
They deserve to lose. Shameful in a playoff game.
Jamal Adams' first half as a member of the
#Seahawks
:
- 7 tackles
- 2 TFL
- 1 sack
Looks bored as hell.
(FWIW: Gregg Williams' defense has given up 21 points to the Bills in the first half.)
All of a sudden the
#Seahawks
dream secondary could be a reality:
S Jamal Adams
S Quandre Diggs
CB Shaquill Griffin
CB Quinton Dunbar
Depth pieces:
CB Tre Flowers
S Marquise Blair
CB Ugo Amadi
Spent a lot of time thinking about this:
People call 911 in moments of dire need and emergency. The audio of those calls should be private aside from use in an investigation or court case. Making the audio public is inhumane. Period. It’s no one else’s business.
Bobby Wagner with some low-key shade on Seattle's nightlife in regard to players being smart and making wise decisions:
"Luckily we are in Seattle, so there's not really clubs for us to go to."
It’s impossible to watch this and not pull for Solomon Thomas.
It doesn’t get much more human than this. He addresses mental health, trade rumors surrounding his name and his poor season in 2018.
Russell Wilson said this is a critical time in his career. He said it's significant and critical that he's part of the hiring process for the
#Seahawks
next OC.
Comedy is 100% subjective so I don’t expect Shane Gillis to be everyone’s cup of tea, but I appreciate him for going for it in this monologue and not censoring his own material.
Oh so now the refs decide that underthrown DPI isn’t a thing? Absolute bullshit and the
#Seahawks
have every right to be pissed. Zero consistency in NFL officiating. Zero.
Real talk: if Julio Rodriguez ever plays a game for another team it’ll be a catastrophic failure.
No ifs. No ands. No buts. He’s Seattle’s and it should NEVER be otherwise
I’ve seen a few people pick the Packers, but I’m yet to see a quality explanation for how they’re going to beat the
#49ers
. I just don’t see it. Niners are the better team across the board and it’s not close.
Sunday will be Week 12 all over again.
Astors-Mariners get-in prices on
@StubHub
:
Game 1 -- $35 (Tues in HOU)
Game 2 -- $42 (Thurs in HOU)
Game 3 -- $317 (Sat in SEA)
Game 4 -- $225 (Sun in SEA)
Weekday afternoon vs. Weekend afternoon coupled with a 20+ year playoff drought.
Hell of a year.
Congrats to the Astros and their fans.
Still the better team, but the gap is closing quickly. We will be back. You can be damn sure of that.
Thank you
@Mariners
for an incredible season.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again: I can’t imagine how much Russell Wilson misses Trevor Moawad.
Was Russ’ best friend and mental coach who helped him get through adversity.
Makes me sad for him.
Jamal Adams took a knee near the goal line and said a prayer for John Wolford.
Cooper Kupp came over to pat Adams on his back, acknowledging that he knew Adams wasn't intending to hurt the QB. It was a clean hit and the flag was picked up.
Bobby Wagner is Pro Football Focus' No. 1 ranked LB this season with a grade of 84.5.
No. 10? That would be K.J. Wright at 73.0.
The
#Seahawks
linebacker duo is having a tremendous season.
It’s objectively funny that in his first game as the Broncos franchise quarterback, Russell Wilson’s head coach took the ball out of his hands and opted for a 60-yard FG instead.
DK Metcalf confirms that Russell Wilson taught him how to swim this offseason while the two were on vacation.
"Nobody had ever forced me to get in the water and learn."
