Jordan Hill is better than Mebane already.
Lynch or Suh?

Suh isn't a potential replacement.

I'm not questioning what he has done. I am concerned about him being able to keep doing it the way our O-line lets him get hammered back there.
I'm not questioning his toughness or performance. I just want him to be able to keep doing it for another decade plus.
Nobody thought Bo Jackson's career would end the way it did. But shit happens. A smart GM protects his franchise QB as much as possible.
That means as few hits as possible. During the Green Bay game, they threw up a stat that Wilson had dropped back 15 times, and was hit, knocked down, or sacked 14 of those times. It's not about just protecting him, it's about giving the offense time to run a play.
A good o-line would help more than a star DT.
This. Next year's team needs Lynch. It's time to start formulating a plan for the post Lynch era.

Regardless, with all the money the Hawks are having to spend they MUST hit on the draft this year. Their past few drafts have been decent, but they really need to find some savings by drafting starters in the draft. That will help the cap space more than anything. The draft is HUGE for the Seahawks this year.

Run a fucking dive instead of a slant on second down and this question would be retarded. Now...........it's just a stupid question. I'll take a difference maker who touches the ball 25-30 times a game vs almost any defensive player. Offensive individual playmaker>>>>>>>>>>>defensive individual playmaker

It was still a terrible call, not because it was a pass (debatable) but the direction and movement of the pass.
No play action to marshawn. No Russell rollout off play action for a run/throw look.
Just a bullet into the heart of the defense.
If you have advanced metrics that can tell me the exact type of pass was correct, then present them otherwise shhhh.
Also, NE has the leagues worst goal line defense statistically, so I'm betting the farm on marshawn or a roll out walk in.

Yeah, 20 seconds left and 1 timeout meant they couldn't run the ball 3 times in a row, there wasn't enough time. Throwing once was the smart thing to do from a clock management standpoint. Now, calling a slant into the middle of the defense? I don't think even Sark could outdo that.

Seriously thought NE was going to let Lynch run it in to keep time on the clock for Brady....

Collinsworth was saying the same thing, right before the immaculate interception. It's been almost two weeks, and I still can't get over how stupid that play design was at that moment in the game. At the very least, run a damn play-action. When it's obvious an opponent has a play picked out, at least give them the damn look. They run a playfake, the defender would have most likely bit, and Russell could have thrown it behind the defense to the back of the endzone. And guess what? if it's tight coverage, it probably the ball probably goes throw the uprights out of bounds.

I can't argue with that, but that's a different argument. I'm just simply saying that with 20 seconds left and 1 timeout, you can't run it 3 times.
This. Lynch is a huge fucking reason that team won we games and made the SB. Turbin and Michael aren't bad but they do not come close to replacing what Lynch means to that team. Personally, I hope Lynch retires.
