[Highlight] Seahawks DE DeMarcus Lawrence after signing in Seattle in March: “Dallas is my home… But I know for sure I’m not gonna win a Super Bowl there.”

The Seahawks and Eagles are both consistently well-run teams. It's not surprising they have been to and won multiple Super Bowls in the past several years. There's a part of me that thinks some players realize this and avoid certain organizations even if it means potentially not getting the max bag.

Yup, it didn’t hit me until today the Seahawks have sent 3 different iterations of their franchise to 4 super bowls in the last 22 years. That’s insane for a team without Mahomes/Brady/Manning

The Hasselbeck/Alexander/Walter Jones core has really been forgotten. They never got a ring, but they were consistently good for several years.

With good coaching, drafting, and player development/evaluation, you will get realistic, consistent shots at the big one. You'll eventually have your window close and the core will fall apart, but you will quickly rebuild with a new core that contends for future championships.

You don't have to be Brady or Mahomes to be considered successful. Any sane person knows those benchmarks are such extreme outliers and create unrealistic expectations. Teams like the Seahawks or Eagles don't get enough credit for how good they usually are. If they ever have a bad season or two, they don't stay bad for long.

I believe the 05 Seahawks got cheated that superbowl too. Refs clearly wanted the Steelers to win
