They should add another back and a fa like AJ Green would be a solid fit

AJ Green would be a short 2-3 year signing until the Bills could draft and train a long term replacement.

 

They definitely need a big bodied #1 WR though.  So does NE for that matter.  I could easily see him choosing NE first.  NE needs to do something about their receivers because the AFC East teams aren't going to see a repeat year of playing against cupcake teams.

Seahawks won't be going far in the playoffs unfortunately.

 

Shambles

 

Tough game today. Their top 3 RB's are now all out for the season: Carson, Penny, Prosise. Their starting left tackle's out for the next few weeks as well. So their offense is down to "Let Russell Wilson improvise". Too bad. :(

Took my elderly parents to their first Seahawks game today... why did it have to be this one  I haven’t seen them play this bad since the kingdome days. I don’t understand when playing the worst pass defense that Shotty kept going with the run after losing both backs. There will be no playoff run this year, it’ll be one and done

Seeing all these drops around the league and it’s pretty crazy to think a talent like Antonio brown is just sitting there jobless. 
 

Yes you have to consider his drama and attention he brings and his legal proceedings. 
 

But he is currently eligible to play in the nfl and honestly a playoff team would only have to deal with his antics for 4-5 weeks. Even if he can’t learn the whole playbook, defenses would have to respect his ability when he’s lined up wide and that could open up space for others. 
 

Imagine a 50 goal scorer in his prime/a year removed from his prime in the nhl just sitting as a free agent.

Eagles still need to handle business vs the Giants.

 

But I will try to enjoy this tonight and tomorrow when Cowboys fans get trolled all day.

It's crazy this team is a win (vs. a trash tier team) away from a playoff home game lmfao. Lets get it.

 

I can't wait to get home and binge all these sports shows. Saving Undisputed for last ;)

Marshawn Lynch agrees to deal to return to Seahawks

Beast mode is back.

 

Marshawn Lynch has agreed to a deal with the Seattle Seahawks, marking a return to the team where he made his moniker famous with a rumbling playoff run against the New Orleans Saints.

 

His agent Doug Hendrickson tweeted a copy of the contract on Monday night. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

 

 

The Seahawks signed Lynch along with Robert Turbin after learning that starting running back Chris Carson will likely miss the playoffs with a hip injury suffered Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals.

Seahawks were desperate

With Rashaad Penny and C.J. Prosise also sidelined with injuries, the Seahawks found themselves desperate at running back as they face a Week 17 showdown with the San Francisco 49ers for the NFC West crown and a potential first-round playoff bye at stake.

 

Prosise suffered a broken arm against the Cardinals and Penny suffered a torn ACL in Week 14. The injuries left rookie Travis Homer as the only healthy running back on the roster. Homer has eight career carries for 52 yards.

 

Can Lynch still produce?

Lynch, 33, hasn’t played in the NFL since ending last season with the Oakland Raiders on injured reserve with groin and core injuries. He played his previous two seasons in Oakland after a six-season stint in Seattle where he starred for the 2013 Super Bowl champions.

 

Lynch played four of his five Pro Bowl seasons with Seahawks after a midseason trade from the Buffalo Bills in 2010. He retired in 2016 only to return in 2017 to play for his hometown Raiders.

 

Lynch wasn’t a workhorse in Oakland, but he was effective when healthy, tallying 1,267 yards and 10 touchdowns while averaging 4.3 yards per carry over the course of 21 games.

 

Whether he can remain a viable NFL running back at 33 coming off a season that ended on injured reserve is yet to seen. But the options in Week 17 were few for the desperate Seahawks, and there are worse ideas than giving a trusted team icon another shot.
