Just saw the write of the practice today (Monday) where Geno got all the 1st team snaps. Isn't today the last "public" practice?
It would not be surprising if today turned out to be Pete punking the media with the next period of time getting Lock ready to go. The 'surprise' starter three weeks from tonight...
"Finally, Pete Carroll said that Seaside Joe is the best Seahawks newsletter he’s ever read. Whether that was something that I read between the lines or if it was a direct quote is unclear and frankly, unfair." best chuckle i had today, keep on keepin'on, KenJoe.
As much as that can feel encouraging, I tend to lean more towards that signaling a rough year with the cornerbacks. Two day three picks starting in the secondary just isn't done unless the situation turned out to be less than ideal for the team. Not that the veteran competition is inspiring.
Isaiah Likely will be missed by your man and maybe ours Jason McCall. The Ravens took the. tightend, McCall's number1 target last year, and he looks great. You would think we could study the Ravens and copy what they do with their tightends. Playing in 12 personel a lot this year and our two star wideouts should get, Dizz, Parkinson, and Fant room to move. Quite frankly no matter our record its an area we need great improvement.
I haven't thought too much about it, but I sense that this is the same Pete we've seen for 13 years. The only difference being we haven't had low expectations or a QB competition in over 10 years, so is it *us* who have changed more than Pete? Just a thought.
I had two great rugby coaches over 23 years and they were the antithesis of each other. One coach was an English gentleman who never yelled but I could play in front of big crowds and when I messed up I would hear,"Oh Chris". I felt so badly and would always try to make up for it.
The other coach was a Welshman , who was an us against the world guy. I was vice captain and he had a chat with me first day. He said " if I don't piss you off sometime this year I won't be doing my job" Well he did, and sat me for a game, over a let's say a minor indiscretion after a game, envolving the team bus and some type of smoking. I played great for the rest of the season.
The point is I would have almost died for either one, both brilliant in their own way. I think Pete sends messages for sure and I listen for what little I can parse out of a press confrence. I believe most of his players feel the same about Pete as I did with my two favorites.

Thank you!
Coby may end up as starting nickel, so we may start both our rookie CBs after all.

Grayson McCall will make it work with his new weapons, but yes, Likely was a stud whenever the ball came near him at CCU.
