Love how much more directly Mike speaks about things and less coach speak and positive phrases things Pete did. That brutal honesty will be appreciated
Playing without KJ, Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril, Bruce Irvine, Brandon Mebane then losing Earl Thomas for the second half would have been pretty tough back in the day
Exactly. No other fanbase wants to hear a team gripe about injury status, but facts is facts. Our biggest talent group of strength was all out and it showed. Maybe we'll get the Lions in postseason and we can test them again.
Dude I walked away from that game actually happy because I know how good of a coach Mike is and how good this team is going to be. Grubb is a phenomenal OC at the League level also. Just like he was for UDUB. We have an incredible coaching staff who is in the process of building a juggernaut in Seattle and who has a great core of young players to do it with. I'm extremely happy that John went out and got Mike and Grubb and crew. This team is doubt to the playoffs for sure. They are getting better every week and we were severely depleted on the defense for this game. Imagine having Big Cat, Murphy, Mafe, Nwosu, Baker, and Love for the entire game. I think we beat Detroit again. This team is well coached and our players are dogs. I'm not at all upset with last night. Instead I am thrilled to see this team continue to grow together and learn how to dominate opposing teams. Let's whoop up on NY and then take out our frustration for losing to Detroit out on SF and whoop them!!!! Go Hawks.
officiating was terrible. Not the sole reason we lost, but the calls/no-calls late in the game even with rapid replay were terrible. DK was in on the 2pt conversion, was interfered with on the play in the end zone and the lockette pass interference call was trash. Those were ALL game changing plays.
If we had Nwosu, Mafe, Williams, Murphy and Baker. I am fully confident this game would be in our favour. Overall happy with the game despite our injuries.
Mike Macdonald is still my GOAT. We had 6 starters out on defense and went against one of the best OCs in the league and we still stayed in the game. Better reffing would've made it an even closer game.
I’m not really mad or concerned about this game. Defense played a little worse than I expected, but how many games out of the season are you gonna be down 5 key players in the front seven, and lose your starting safety halfway through the game.
@@richardkosoff711DK was tackled in the end zone before he could even try to catch the ball. No Call. So many no calls. I. The 4th quarter we were on the goal line and they had 12 players and didn’t call it!
Seattle got the better whistles alllll game, Hutch was held all game maybe 1 call, plenty of PI's could have been called against Seattle as well. All the talk about injuries Seattle had, we were missing our starting center, starting right tackle, 2 safties, a starting linebacker and defensive linemen. We had just as many injuries as you did except we out toughed you. You are not in Detroit's league period. Keep crying about officials when you got the calls all night and still got dominated. Hold your L trashhawks you aren't doing anything in the playoffs anyway and that is if you make it lmfaoooo 3 - 0 playing nobody and we have already played 3 playoff teams from last year and are 3 - 1 and should be 4 - 0. Know your role stop your crying because with all the calls you got we should be crying but we were too busy winning lmfaooo.
This game is important because it should light a fire under us. We went up against a great offensive team, and the guys need to understand this is the standard. Right now, they’re not at that level, and it’s clear we have some work to do to get there.
Missing Murphy, Williams, Mafe, and Nwosu..... I think it's totally fair to pull the injury excuse card here. Lions had no option but to carve them like a turkey dinner.
Hey genius we were missing our starting center, starting right tackle, a starting safety along with another safety, a starting linebacker, and a starting defensive lineman. Cry me a river you got dominated on the line of scrimmage. Hold your L trash hawks you have played nobody all year and the first time you play a good team you get beat by 13 points lmfao. We have played 3 playoff teams from last year already and are 3 - 1 should be 4 - 0. Ya'll a joke keep crying about official's when you got all the calls to begin with lmfao.
@@paragonns4164we were missing all but one d line starter. A starting linebacker and our pro bowl safety left the game. That's just on defense. On offense we carved you're defense as well despite having a 3rd string RT against Hutch. We have nothing but respect for the Lions but it helps to run when your opponent has no starting DTs. We lost fair and square but it'll be a much different game if we meet in the post season.
@paragonns4164 let's say the lions lost 6/11 defensive starters u don't think that's massive bud? Our injuries were much more detrimental to us then urs was and was saw that clearly mindsy night. Ggs tho hopefully u see us in January mall lil healthier
Bigger question is why so many injuries in the first place. Something Seahawks can do internally to avoid injury better and/or speed up recovery times?
Next week. NEW York Giants at SEATTLE. good luck boys. Fingers crossed. Go hawks. Let's get the win back. Seattle nation baby. Seattle all the way. . In MIKE MCDONALD i trust. . SEAHAWKS 4 LIFE. 💙💙💚💚💙💙💚💚💙💙💚💚💙💙💚💚💚💙💙💙
At the end of the game when we are on the goal line, they had 12 defenders on the field and it was not called. Look it up. It was either 2nd or 3rd down.
It's true. But as Coach Mcdonald said himself. He needs to not ask guys to do stuff they can't do. I feel that statement had a lot to do with Gibpson out in coverage.
@@timgoble9870 bro is an nfl athlete that couldn’t stop one of the most unathletic QBs in the league from scoring a touchdown catch over his head I get what coach Mac said but that one is just non excusable
There are not many times I have been ok with a Seahawks loss. As frustrating as it was as I was trying to get to sleep after that game, I was fine with it. DK fumble, Lockett penalty, non call in DK, and the 3 big plays given up on blitzes from the secondary that didn’t get home, we probably win that game!
@jakemueller I totally agree. And don't forget about the no call when Metcalf had the interference in the inzone with the ref literally standing right there.
We likely still would have lost even without the 2 bad calls the DK PI no call and I didnt like that Tyler Locket penalty that negated the first down and killed the drive I think that was ticky tacky call and wrong. The defensive backups just didn't get the job done like the 5 injured players likely would have that's why we lost the game.
Players should like to play for this coach...taking the blame for 6 starters missing on defence. Adams, Gipson, Bowzer, Bohannon, Bryant...these are fringe nflers at best. It was a deserved loss, the Lions are a better team than the team the Seahawks had to put on the field. Add junk officiating and that's an easily predictable loss.
Geno's interception resulted in a score. DK's fumble resulted in a score. We can't turn the ball over and expect to win the game. If you add those two scores to our final score you can see the game was really closer. We beat ourselves.
Defense looked like it was pieced together day of, zero chemistry out there. I really hope it was just because we had 5 dudes out and I hope it doesn’t become a pattern against top teams.
If our offense can play every game like they did Monday then when we get our defense back to full capacity, we'll be a solid team that can win 12 games minimum
The Lions played a lot of man coverage. No doubles on DK and The Chip help from RBs n TE even DK had to Chip Hutch. I thought the game plan on Hutch was limiting the personnel packages bcuz you really cant play him 1on1 you gotta have someone to pick up blitzes and someone to Nudge Hutch .
YOU GUYS SHOULD ASK MIKE MCDONALD IF THEY SHOULD RUN THE BALL MORE. I THINK I WOULD CREATE MORE DYNAMIC PLAYS SO GENO SMITH DOESN’T HAVE TO THROW HIS WHOLE ARM OFF.
I love how impervious Mike is to these two knuckleheads fawning and ego petting. Honestly it's gross. Brock needs to ice his groin before getting on these calls.
Mike, this was a game, and you know it, when your offense needed to take over the game and didn’t. It’s that simple. Your defensive line was decimated!!! I’m sure Metcalf and others were promising to carry the team. Unfortunately, they waited a whole half to begin the process they didn’t finish. Get Leonard and Murphy back next week and there are Hawk feathers all over that field.
Bad interview for 2 reasons1) Mike is very tired and interview went on way to long.2) Lot of dumb questions and it was obvious Mike thought so to. Improve the interview questions and don't keep going on and digging yourself into a whole. I felt the energy getting worse as the interview went on. It's your job to keep the energy up not Mike'S.
Love how much more directly Mike speaks about things and less coach speak and positive phrases things Pete did. That brutal honesty will be appreciated
Yeeeeessss, thank God!
Agreed
Playing without KJ, Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril, Bruce Irvine, Brandon Mebane then losing Earl Thomas for the second half would have been pretty tough back in the day
Well stated. We learn and grow. I believe this is the coach to right the ship. Go hawks

Absolutely. If anything it showed us we have a great offensive scheme and genius cookin

@@DisgruntledSeahawksFan i kinda think this was one of the larger issues that game, many of those big throws went right over Dodson's head.
@@chrisd.2328and that’s been a theme this season.

True, but it’s hard to criticize the offense when they played so well. Our defense didn’t allow our offense to play anything but perfect
This game is important because it should light a fire under us. We went up against a great offensive team, and the guys need to understand this is the standard. Right now, they’re not at that level, and it’s clear we have some work to do to get there.
And 6/11 of the starting defense wasn't on the field...
Such a contrast to Pete...and I like it. Direct. No talking to talk. He is very guarded, especially with players injuries. Got to whip the Giants.
yeah, it's a breathe of fresh air with him actually answering the questions directly and not beating around the bush with fluff talk

Dropping 29 points with almost half of the defensive starters out. Losing this game is fine with me.

Onto the giants!
Detroit is a good measure to bench mark. Seattle will mature. It was broken the last few years. Very good progress made.

Missed calls for DK PI and 2 point conversion.
