Give 12 hate a rest for 3 minutes and just enjoy it. Yes, they are tacky and kind of annoying. Go hang around Raider, Cowboy, Steeler, and Patriot fans for ten minutes, then compare.

the offense was shredding them. Big if, but if harvin somehow stays healthy I forsee a big year from the seahawks offense. Definitely an improvement over last season
 
It may be the offense carrying the team this year. The dline does not seem as formidable as last year but it is the preseason. Russell looks incredible. His ball come out faster and has more zip on it. Percy opens that offense like no other. The o-line still looks shaky. Its funny Cable is always shots out for how good he is but the o-line has been average. Lynch is such a hard runner makes up for it.
That Bears offense is good but Cutler is Cutler throwing that pick was atrocious. Jeffery and Marshall look incredible. The hawks took care of business without the pass rush we saw last year.

Overall, hard to think the hawks won't be in the SB again. Russell looks really really good. Russell could be vying for MVP.
 
the defense will not be as good as last year. What they did last year wasn't repeatable, it was that good. However with the linebackers, the front and especially the secondary. There is nothing to suggest they won't be the best defense in the league again this year
The offense looks very good, speed and weapons everywhere. The Oline is a concern but if they stay healthy it's probably an average unit.
They are the best team in the NFC on paper IMO, but repeating is so rare. We'll see

Pretty much agree. The D Line won't be as good as it was because it can't be. But the LB's should be better with Smith getting more PT and Irvin getting less and Wagner and Wright healthy all year (hopefully). The secondary might be even better with Maxwell playing all year. The dropoff in d line means the defense will be worse, but it should still be the best.

Offensively they could be significantly better IMO. If Unger and Okung stay healthy that's a major step up for the OL, and Harvin and Richardson are going to bring speed like they didn't have last year. And I'm a major hook for Wilson, I think the dude is phenomenal. I think they let him air it out a bit more and everyone will rave about how much better he is this season even though it probably won't be improvement so much as more opportunity and (hopefully) better pass protection.

I think they're the best team for sure if healthy, but winning the title requires a lot of luck. We'll see indeed.
 
The D line probably won't be as good as last year, but the Seahawk's defense still led the league in PPG in 2012 with just Chris Clemons and a bunch of garbage rushing the passer. Their secondary is that good and probably will be better this year. Tharold Simon is already awesome.

Agree on offense. Wilson is looking like he's stepping his game up. I think Okung is toast, he was limping again after the Bears. That's probably his natural state now, injured. The interior of the O line looks great though.
 
DL is fine. Clemons wasn't that good last year and Bryant was the most overrated player on the team. The Seahawks were only slightly above average stopping the run anyways.They still have Bennett, Mebane, and Avril. Schofield, Hill, Marsh, McDaniel, and Williams is solid depth. Bruce Irvin can rush the passer too. It's still a loaded DL.

But, Red Bryant was a LEADER! You can't possibly replace that.
 
I think the DL is fine but I don't think it will be as good as last year. They are only marginally worse though.

However the LB corps is going to be better if they all stay healthy, could even see more improvement in the secondary.
