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 (4m) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (2h) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (3h) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (5h) : DT Byron Murphy II, Texas... whom some believe is the next Aaron Donald (or the closest thing to Donald)

Zero2Cool (6h) : What? And who?

Mucky Tundra (12h) : *sad Mucky noises*

Mucky Tundra (12h) : @JoeJHoyt Murphy said he’s been told he won’t slide past pick No. 16.

wpr (19h) : Just about time to watch Sonny Weaver stick it to the seahags. I never get tired of it.

Martha Careful (19h) : *game plan

Martha Careful (19h) : IMHO, not even close. He is not a guy you game play around.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : is Aiyuk worth a 1st rounder?

Zero2Cool (22h) : 49ers are seeking a 1st round pick in exchange for WR Brandon Aiyuk

Mucky Tundra (22-Apr) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Gutekunst says he'd love to have 13 or 14 picks. He's trading back huh lol

beast (22-Apr) : Someday we'll have a draft betting scandal

beast (21-Apr) : Sometimes looking extremely amazing, sometimes looking extremely lost

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.

Zero2Cool (18-Apr) : Packers sign T Andre Dillard.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : @RealAlexBarth Bill Belichick says accurate draft information doesn't leak from teams until about 12 hours before the draft. Adds most of th
