jamesplante11 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Per Bleacher Report, Seattle wants Lynch back if he will take a "big pay cut" Looks like times are shifting in Seattle! Next year will be the Wilson, Rawls, and Lockett show on Offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Brown Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Carroll traded for Lynch in the early part of his Seahawk tenure. Lynch was the key guy/initial guy/poster child of the new era Hawks in turning things around. His running style set the tone for the organization over the last 5 years. Lynch is revered by Hawk fans, still a lot of people's favorite player. It was disappointing that in his last game he didn't really get an opportunity to make one last impact. Lynch's current contract isn't guaranteed next year and counts as 6+ million against the cap; he isn't going to take a massive pay cut. 30 years old and on the decline. It's been a great run and it was awesome to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 He is probably still pissed about the SB last year, and rightfully so. He should be!!!!!! He didn't even complain about it. Despite what people think about him, he's carried himself well on and off the field. I hope he gets a few more years in and can pump his stats up to hall of fame level numbers. I believe if Seattle got the ring he would be a lock for the HOF. Right now, he has a weak case for Canton. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 I think Rawls may have showed enough and have a lot more to offer the seahawks as he gets better to have them definitely cut Lynch.And Lynch may even retire anyway ( while i doubt it , he has mentioned it which he may seriously pursue now ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesplante11 Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 I think there are still a few teams out there that would be stupid to sign Lynch to a 1 or 2 year deal. The only thing he does "wrong" is not speak to the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahawks21 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I really want to bring him back. He's the toughest SOB on the field at all times, and that means something. I'd lay money he plays for the Pats next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 He would do very well with the pats. He would get 1-2 more great years and a possible ring. I can't stand the Pats, but they would seriously help his case for the HOF. The Pats are good at getting the best out of players, just look what they did with stars like Corey Dillon and Randy Moss, they put up their best years with the Pats.

The Pats are good at getting the best out of players, just look what they did with stars like Corey Dillon and Randy Moss, they put up their best years with the Pats. Dillon did have his best year with the Pats; his first one, but once he got to the other side of 30 the following season his numbers dropped significantly. He was no slouch with Cincy either; 4 years of 1200+ yards. Whether this year's injuries for Beast was an aberration or a sign of wear and tear is the unknown. I agree that New England would make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Brown Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) How is this for coach speak when Pete was asked about Lynch's status: “I don’t know how that’s going to go,” Carroll said. “I don’t know how any of these guys are going to go right now. I don’t know. “Everything is just normal right now. Just everything remains to be known.” Uhhh what?

gilthorp Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 He would seem to be a distraction, who appears to elevate his own self way above the other 52. I don't know of a single coach that could put up with that for too long. For a period of time - sure, but after that, I can see it being no bueno.

MorningMud Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 How about we just let a guy who isn't a good guy at all walk away from the spotlight and never return. Those who are saying he's a good guy haven't done much research. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who are saying he's a good guy haven't done much research. Are you talking about the concealed possession of a firearm? Or the hit and run? I'm not excusing those events, but those were 6-7 years ago. I was living in Rochester, NY when he got those charges, so things from Buffalo always made news. He has the "Fam 1st foundation" and gives a lot to the Oakland area kids. The media is playing puppet master with viewers as usual. He isn't perfect but he gives back and doesn't ask for any kudos for it. So yeah, I'm okay with looking at him as a good guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowboutthemCowboys Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Maybe I'm misremembering but didn't he practice all week leading up to the Minny game "and look good" then tell the staff that he wasn't traveling on the day they were leaving?
