Ownership f'd up by not cleaning house and firing Pete and JS. I can't see Pete lasting two years of rebuild, which is what it's most likely going to take. That will mean two years of them acrewing up draft picks and FA only to have another GM/HC come in and lean up the bigger mess they will leave behind. That will probably take the new staff a couple of years to fix. Jody should have completely cleaned house after getting rid of RW.
Im glad 1-2's have Jody running the show, for as much s**t they have talked about Jed York.
I think the majority of the Seahawk fan base don't even know who Jed York is...I could probably only name about 3-4 NFL owners at this current time myself and I consider myself more involved with football than the average fan.
If anyone has been talking crap about Jed York over the last decade, it's been the Niner fanbase, I mean it's all over this forum lol
That's not true. A search through .Nut would tell you differently lol
And of course Jed York would be discussed on a niner forum. And of course some would be displeased with some of his decisions. The good thing is that he's learned from his young mistakes. You better hope Jody learns from hers. Time will tell.
im guessing you agreed with the rest of my post
Oh yeah I totally agree with ownership for Seahawks screwing up not getting rid of Pete and JS a few years ago. At least Pete. It's obvious at least to me that Jody Allen doesn't really care about winning football, it's just another side business venture for her and it was easier for her to keep a good but not great product on the field as long as it brought in more revenue vs actually building a contending product (I get in arguments with fellow fans all the time that contending is more than just being a playoff caliber team). It's similar to my Zags 10 years ago, they were contending in March Madness by being in the sweet sixteen but it's only in the last 5 years or so they have truly become contenders for the final four and championship...but yeah lets not get me started there.
I understand Jody Allen taking the position she is taking regarding the Seahawks franchise. I also can see how she may have allowed/pushed for the RW trade because these rich 1% Boomers and Gen X generation are going to stick together and aren't going to bend over for Millenials and Gen Z athletes and fan base. There's a conspiracy theory that Jody Allen is also setting up to sell the team, I could see that too. She inherited the team, she did not BUY it herself...given her comments over the years or really LACK there of, it's pretty obvious the Seahawk franchise is not that important to her. Which is disappointing, but once again I can understand as she inherited the team it's not a priority to her. Just make it run enough to not cause her problems and keep raking in some extra money.
