That is what Lynch was saying, but the question was dumb as fuck and completely inaccurate.dnc said:
I took it as "I wouldn't go back and play for most teams but I do have unfinished business there".RoadDawg55 said:
So dumb. He would be lucky to have 2 or 3 teams interested in him if he wanted to play this year. That’s nothing against him but he’s a 33 year old RB that isn’t going to sign for the minimum.Gladstone said:
He signed with Seattle in week 16 because of injuries.
Maybe I'm hearing what I want to hear.

Games missed is obviously only part of the story. Philly, in particular, would probably move up based on the importance of the players missing.Gladstone said:
But yeah Seattle has been massively injuried and still keeps on ticking.

The only team in the NFC that I felt the Seahawks certainly couldn't beat was New Orleans who are now out
As the playoffs go along I expect the run game to improve, getting Duane brown back (along with iupati) would change the offense.
The path to make the Superbowl is there, the Seahawks have very little speed on defense but green bay in cold weather likely wont expose that. It'll come down to can they pressure Rodgers as I think the game comes down to the 4th quarter.
After that would likely face SF who is probably better than them but a team they played neck and neck both times. Who knows, maybe Minnesota pulls off an upset and they host.
If they were to get there, they need to hope somehow Baltimore gets knocked off. That is the other team that would certainly expose them. KC they could maybe beat in a shootout. -
Russ's (only?) Achilles heel is rain and/or extreme cold.dhdawg said:The only team in the NFC that I felt the Seahawks certainly couldn't beat was New Orleans who are now out

It's going to be like 26 degrees Sunday.
I agree there's no team they can't beat but having to play in GB, at night, is probably going to be the end of them.
They can't win if Russell isn't damn near perfect. -
He's bad in rain and wind.
Forecast is mid 20's with no rain, and little wind.
That is manageable -
IMO the worst game he ever played was 26 degrees, 5 mph wind.dhdawg said:He's bad in rain and wind.

Not coincidentally in GB.

Fair point. That game was a part of a broader collapse though where he and the team did not play well against TB, GB, and then lost their bye against the cards at home (sounds familiar right) before getting smoked in Atlanta. I don't feel the weather was a huge factor.dnc said:

I mean Russ had 1 TD 5 INTs that game, 9 TDs 3 INTS the rest of the regular season games from the TB game on.dhdawg said:

That GB game was a massive, massive outlier. It's an outlier in his whole career.
