The Seahawks look like the best team in the NFL, but coach Pete Carroll says they can get better. Specifically, Carroll says the Seahawks could tackle better than they did on Thursday night against the Packers. According to Carroll, Packers running back Eddie Lacy "I was disappointed that we bounced off the guy as much...

As much as I cannot stand Carroll - this puts things into perspective. Why are our guys not held to a standard like this? It is no wonder why they do so well on D and we look like a 3rd string HS defensive unit.[-(

Well they didn't tackle well at all. They did a better job of getting to the football in the first place though so it didn't hurt them as badly as it hurt us.

This defense is weak up the middle, and it has been since we lost Bishop and Collins. You can't replace Collins because he was a freakish athlete with a perfect mixture of speed and power for the safety position. But we have younger players at inside linebacker that should be thrown in there right now. I'm sick to death of watching dog shit in the middle of a linebacker defense. This is TT's biggest failure and he should own up to it and be held accountable by all Packers fans.

The play of Hawk and Jones vs Seattle makes the situation with Bradford so egregious. A guy who's measurables scream ILB but someone (Capers? Moss? McCarthy?) decides to shove him into the conga line at OLB. Why? Lattimore last season and Barrington this preseason showed a willingness to get physical at the line and take runners on. Yet neither one sees a single snap vs Seattle even as Lynch was moving the chains. Why?

Mucky Tundra (7h) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Zero2Cool (7h) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (7h) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (7h) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?

Zero2Cool (8h) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\

Zero2Cool (8h) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?

Zero2Cool (8h) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.

Martha Careful (8h) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat

Mucky Tundra (26-Apr) : Was that for the team or the city?

Martha Careful (25-Apr) : Sorry to bitch, but the headline writers in that section absolutely mislead, or don't know how to read. It is maddening

Martha Careful (25-Apr) : No thanks. Not a dependable guy to be in the right place and run the right route. Dumb as a box of rocks.
