Beast mode is my favorite Seahawk all time (Bam Bam a very close second. For context I was an Oilers fan growing up in Houston and became a hawks fan in 96 when I moved here and after losing my team to TN in 94. So I respect those who may revere players from earlier teams.

Marshawn is responsible for the greatest play in seahawks history. I remember exactly where I was and hugging random strangers after that play!

His mentality and toughness set the tone for our team. his best football was always in the second half and you could tell defenders didn’t want to tackle him.

He’s a genuine, selfless, kind and honest dude (ask anyone from that team). His teammates respected and admired him. Even after he retired he still has a positive impact on players and gives back to his community.

Why we didn’t give him the damn ball I will never understand and no explanation or excuse will ever make sense.

I love that dude!

What I always liked about that era was how they punished their opponents for being sloppy. It was a very opportunistic bunch, tactically speaking.

I don't know about "important", but I could go with "best exemplifies" (which is what Carroll was after). Lynch racked up a lot of yards bouncing off of missed tackles.

Plus, I really miss that dude.
