Seahawks are the Underdogs, Again

It’s okay to be disappointed by the Seahawks this offseason because, once again, they aren’t projected to contend. No one who follows the team should be surprised by this. Every year the Seahawks are the underdogs.

In the Pete Carroll era, Seattle has performed at their best as underdogs. This season will be no different. They brought back Carlos Dunlap and have a very talented defense. They also will have a healthy stable of running backs, not to mention one of the best wide receiver tandems in the league.

Somehow, the “experts” completely misjudge the team’s resiliency. But, the other teams in the NFC West loaded up.

Maybe There Isn’t a Reason to be Disappointed

So maybe there’s no reason to be disappointed in the Seattle Seahawks this offseason. They retained Russell, brought in some offensive line help, resigned Carlos Dunlap, and restructured a few contracts. Maybe there isn’t a reason to be disappointed because we know that the Seahawks have always won with Russell at quarterback no matter what.

It’s easy to be disappointed in the Seahawks this offseason, but it’s also easy not to be disappointed, especially since the biggest move they made was bringing in a young, exciting new Offensive Coordinator who finally gets to work with a fun and talented QB. Shane Waldron, a Pacific Northwest native (Portland, OR), joins the Seahawks after four seasons with the Rams and will bring an exciting approach to the Seattle offense.

It’s okay not to be disappointed; it’s okay to be disappointed. The draft is coming up, and Seattle doesn’t have many holes to plug on the roster.
