Hey, I'm a pretty die-hard Seahawks fan, ANd I want to hear what other people have to say and what they think of what the Seahawks are capable of, and their opinions on the teams itself. PLEASE No hate messages towards the Hawks, I just want some good, thoughtful opinions.

The Seahawks are a very good team. Playing for one of the best coaches, in one of the best cities, in one of the coolest stadiums, with some of the best fans.
Seattle should make it pretty far this season, but it will be tough. The NFC West will be much harder to come on top of, this year. The Rams, 49ers, and Cardinals are all threats to win this division, but the Seahawks should be able to pull through.
Seattle has many strong points. Their secondary and linebackers are among the NFL's elite. Hasselbeck is a great QB, behind one of the better offensive lines in the NFL. Engram, Branch, and Burleson are a good receiving core. Pollard has potential, but hasn't really proven himself yet. The rushing backfield is a question mark. Letting go of Alexander could be really costly. Julius Jones is overhyped, and Morris, Puckett and Forsett haven't proven themselves yet. Weaver is a good FB. Patrick Kearney is a great threat on the line and Tapp is good, yet defensive tackles aren't really a plus for Seattle. The Seahawks special teams are good as well.
I think that Seattle is a playoff team again, and they will just edge out to win the NFC West. Yet I don't think they will make it too far in the postseason. The Seahawks are a great overall team, but I believe that they are one explosive offensive play-maker away from being Super Bowl contenders.

The Seahawks are a great overall team, but I believe that they are one explosive offensive play-maker away from being Super Bowl contenders. I like your thoughts, but Pollard is actually gone, I believe, being replaced by rookie tight end John Carlson, who I've seen play in Notre Dame, and should be a good, tough TE for Seattle. I think that the loss of Alexander is a definate plus, as J.J will have a better O-Line with Walter Jones leading it, and Julius should give the speed the Seahawks need in a RB, but the others I'm not so sure about, I believe they should have waited and picked up Chris Henry or Kevin Jones instead of Puckett. Rocky Bernard is a solid DT, but Tubbs is a failure health wise, so rookie Red Bryant will have to pick up the slack. Holmgren might bust out a great team this year, being his last year as an NFL coach, and because I believe in the whole Super Bowl Conspiracy theory, ever since Steelers beat Seahawks in 05' after Bettis still hadnt won a superbowl, and at the start of his career, said he wanted to sin it at least once during a huge press conference, (back to the topic..) Because of my belief and the hype around Holmgrens last year, I think the Seahawks will get a huge boost in reffing, and will probably make it far in the playoffs.

Super Bowl XL was closer than the score, but the Steelers still deserved to win. Anyways, do you really think that Seattle will be better off without Shaun Alexander? He's an MVP type player who had one bad year, and the fans deserted him. He didn't hit the hole like he used to, because he was injured last season. He didn't play with a huge passion, because he would have re-agrivated an injury. I still think that he can play at a high level, and any team that picks up the free agent Alexander will be satisfied. A loss for Seattle, because Julius Jones does not have the vision of Shaun. Holmgren should go out in a bang, behind his team.

But personally I just want to see a Seahawk Super Bowl victory, At least once in my lifetime.

Travis Henry or Kevin Jones would have been better options.

Anyways, the running game in Seattle is going to be a big question mark, you never know if either Puckett or Jones are going to have breakout years or be complete busts. The passing game is in danger as well, with Branch getting injured every year, Hackett gone, and Engram a possible holdout, they'll have to rely on Obomanu, Payne and Taylor to pick up severely.

But with Pollard gone, how do they stand at TE? Because the Seattle receivers are fairly small, and tight end can be a very important position for the Seahawks.

Seahawks should have kept Jurevicius....teams are dumb Giants, Tampa, Seattle, he hardly ever drops a pass. They do have one of the best receiving corps in the NFL tho. Yes, the Browns do have one of the best receiving cores in the NFL. But Jurevicius has been pretty successful, just because Edwards and Winslow have gotten most of the defensive attention in the air, opening him up for opportunity. He's not a very good route runner, more or a sideline possession receiver.
