Seattle Seahawks: Keeping Up With The Rams
The Rams are the NFL champions, and the Seattle Seahawks are a last-place team. Fear not Seattle fans, because the Seahawks can flip the script for next season pretty easily. Let me tell you how in just three simple steps to Hawks can soar again.
Mercifully the 2021 NFL season has come to a close, and the Seattle Seahawks can look ahead to next year. The L.A. Rams have been crowned champions. Seattle has to figure out how to catch up with them to compete in the NFC West. They’re not as far away as you would think they are, based on 2021’s subpar results.
The Rams may be losing both starting tackles to retirement and/or cap constraints. Two of their receivers are coming off ACL tears, and OBJ may be done after suffering the same knee injury twice. Head coach Sean McVay sees the writing on the wall. He could head for the television booth as his team is bereft of both cap space and draft assets.
The San Francisco 49ers have their own issues and start a young and inexperienced Trey Lance at quarterback. He was far from impressive during his rookie season. They also have one of the best defensive fronts in the game but can’t keep them healthy,
Meanwhile, Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals are pointing fingers after the team’s second-half collapse. When sources say your starting QB is considering going back to professional baseball, well… your team isn’t having a good off-season. At least quarterback discontent isn’t limited to Seattle.
So if the Seahawks can address three areas before their next opener, they can be right back in the thick of things. Like the New Kids On The Block, let’s do this Step By Step.
