Interesting analysis! We'll see how our respective lines gel and the youngsters step up...
I must comment on your podcast where you spoke of covering weird events. Teddy's injury, Peterson's excessive child discipline, Turner suddenly quitting... plenty of drama! As an old timer, I believe Jim Marshall would have provided you with much off field news:
- Walked out of the hospital not once, but TWICE to play on Sunday... pneumonia and ulcers
- Shot himself while cleaning a shotgun and played on Sunday
- Almost died in Montana during a snowmobile vacation when a blizzard hit. One person did die and they ended up burning their money to keep the fire going...
A true Iron Man! 270 consecutive games, 302 if you count post season play. Why he isn't in the HOF is beyond me. To quote a New York Times article, "The fact that the man isn't in the Pro Football Hall of Fame is nothing short of a complete travesty, because the man was one hell of a football player for a very long time. When it came to powering through, however, in the history of the National Football League, there's Jim Marshall. . .and then there's pretty much everybody else."
Great work! Very interesting break down. Highly detailed on some teams I had no clue on. Still nervous about the O-line, new guys don't start so well. Although at guard spot with bar so low, less concern there. Now we just hope people stay out of trouble on this long break..one shot already..yikes.
Just a wild guess by me (so 95% chance of being wrong) Oli Udoh is a surprise starter at RG and turns out to be very solid. Wyatt becomes our swing guard.
The Richterson singing is a game changer to me. If they have success against the browns lines this could be special year.

That's crazy about Marshall and totally agree he should be in the Hall

Thanks Jim! You’re right to be nervous. Those guys will be our biggest focus in camp and preseason for exactly that reason
Carlos Dunlap did eventually re-sign with the Seahawks. They also added Aldon Smith. And Benson Mayowa's still on the team.
With depth from some recent draft picks (Collier, Taylor, Robinson, Green), Seattle could have a solid DL and a good pass rush this year.
Thanks, fixed. The depth chart I was looking at for some reason listed Dunlap and Mayowa as 3rd stringers so I overlooked it.
There’s a typo that leads to confusion, you said both OL and DL were 26th but the DL is ranked 15th according to the link provided.
Shoot, thanks for the correction!
