You make good sense, but I think we should still have preseason, but it shouldn’t include the players who have already made the roster only those who are trying to get on practice, squad or audition for other teams
thankfully at the crap from Caroll era been cut and now a fresh start can emerge. V interested to see how run defence goes, also 3rd down and hopefully tackling will have improved. Beat the easy teams and see how you fare against the best, no reason why Seattle can’t get 10+wins this season. NFL back and that means u, Robbie and Adam back, what Sundays are made for!
Hey Rob, I noticed from the blog a shared link to a video with Curtis Allen. I’ve always enjoyed his write ups but thought his video interview was class! Would love to see more Curtis Allen video content with you two during the season, have you discussed this at all? If not, would love to see it! Looking forward to week 1!
@@robstatonfootball love to hear it, Rob! Can’t wait to tune into those. Best of luck when the new season rolls around. The fact you’re not near 20K+ subs is a travesty, keep up the good work bud
Great show Rob! I was wondering what you think of the Captain change process? I think it is very interesting. I'm wondering if it is for our players specifically or some kind of way to gain an advantage on game day. What are your thoughts? Great to have you in the crew back.
Thanks Rob. Bring on the regular season and yes, can we PLEASE just get rid of preseason games. And btw the whole "you never played (American) football" comments are so tired and so lame.
Truly my friend. That take is at the top of the tired takes list. Guys who maybe played HS ball vs an actual factual sports journalist...suspicious that those folks never state their given name so we can verify if they were captains of their team at some big time program and then went on to be coaches, execs, or even area scouts.
I still think preseason games are important for players to put on tape to show out for 32 teams not necessarily only the Seahawks. I get not wanting to risk veterans that are guaranteed a spot already.
As usual there are a number of calculated risks. I'm concerned that Holani is a Sean McVay kinda guy..........................I'd hate to see him star as a Ram.
What happens if we lose week 1 to the Broncos? They play good defense, and a couple things don't go our way and we end up with the L. Season's optimism could change quickly
The Seahawks havent added dj james to the practice squad and theres only one spot left wtf. Multiple udfa on the roster and ps but james doesn't make it?
Don't let these chimps tell you otherwise... preseason is effectively nothing it only meant something to Russell in 2012 and means something to the few players around the league who are already stars and want to just get the reps...
Keeping 11 Offensive Lineman is not a good sign to me. Indicates that they don't have much confidence in these players either because of poor play or poor health. Abe Lucas being on the PUP almost made me cry.
Team possibly blew 2-6 round picks, this year and next year. Also blew a 2nd round pick on DE, but I understand that the current staff didn't draft him.
Gipson is going to get a lot of DE snaps week one, he's not a waste of a 6th. And if you're referring to DJ James as a wasted pick, it's not unusual for 6th/7th round picks to be on the ps for their rookie season or even year two.
Nice vid Rob. Maths profs are worried about Uchenna & J.Love injury proneness
Thanks!
Thank you Barry!
Oh Canada! Nice lid.
Thankfully Rob is back.

Great breakdown, Rob. All those offensive lineman were a surprise! But I think your analysis about hedging Connor Williams week 1 makes sense.
Rob you're the man.
Very nice job, Rob.

@@hmm_los Thank you!
I think you have a point about preseason. How about if the games count, but the roster size goes down after each of the first 3 games.
Good idea

I do expect a bit more movement before the first game. Maybe JS picks a few up from other teams cut players.

I agree, Pre season is all about the network m o n e y.
100%
And I have to pay for stupid preseason games with season tickets.

As usual there are a number of calculated risks. I'm concerned that Holani is a Sean McVay kinda guy..........................I'd hate to see him star as a Ram.
I was thinking the same thing about Holani and the rams. And I think they just put one of their backs on IR
I like brady henderson just fine but didnt he report "sources," saying lucas was "good to go?"
Does it strike anyone as odd that Barrett didn't make the initial 53 man after trading for him so recently?
Not for me - clearly they were going to cut Jackson so they swapped players to have a look. Might’ve always been the plan to get him and PS him
What happens if we lose week 1 to the Broncos? They play good defense, and a couple things don't go our way and we end up with the L. Season's optimism could change quickly
Not for me. It's one game
Not that worried about Holani...Laviska can do a lot more with the 15-20 plays that George would have gotten. Still liked him but were LOADED at RB.
I doubt that a wide receiver who could have very well not made the team can do more than a running back.
And you can’t be too loaded at the position.
The Seahawks havent added dj james to the practice squad and theres only one spot left wtf. Multiple udfa on the roster and ps but james doesn't make it?
Sounds like he’s assessing his options and might go to NYG. Not worried about it personally
Drake thomas coming off injury at a great time of need

Good call. There are players for sure that seize every chance but generally it's pretty pointless.
Abe is pup well that doesnt give me hope
Expected though

Preseason, at least in the case of Curtis was the reason he got cut because he flat out sucked, I mean kept saying to myself, THIS GUY AGAIN.
