    Is Ivan Lewis still the strength coordinator? Will factor in how much I care in this

    That's the amazing thing, isn't it? It's preposterous.

    Competing SFs running approach to what Carrol is doing is insanely laughable.

    Also, they weren’t inches away from a first round bye. They were a full game against Arizona away from it.

    Yeah that's a pretty inexcusable take from Arthur. Seattle still doesn't have a bye if they beat SF. They also don't have a bye if they beat Arizona.

    They were an Arizona (or LA) win AND a few inches against SF away from a first round bye.

    Or more accurately, two wins away. Which is a pretty big number in a 16 game league.
    Overall just a couple plays from being in the Super Bowl. Ball bounces a little different here and there, maybe a couple more touchdowns here instead of a few sacks. As close as you can get without being super bowl champs three years in a row.
    Are you saying the last 3 years or the 3 years starting with them winning it? Because I think the OP is talking about this year and this team has come nowhere close to the super bowl 3 straight years.

    The Carroll method is great if you have a defense that can back it up. I also wouldn't call this the Carroll method, as it was done before by the 85' bears and the early 2000s Ravens.

    Even in the LOB days, they got shredded anytime a starter at DB was out.

    I don’t mind running the ball, but ideally we would run more later in the game after building a lead, not running and keeping it close by doing so and throwing late. The always compete, win in the 4th shit backfires at times.

    If you mean Sherman, Earl or Kam, yes.

    If you mean the rotating corner opposite of Sherm, not really.

    Lane in the Super Bowl was a huge loss and cost us the game. We wouldn’t have needed a game winning TD if he didn’t get hurt.

    Maxwell moved inside where he was worse and I’ll suited to guard Edelman and Simon got destroyed.
