@IamJos3V @natetepp Never in 20+ years have I sold a single ticket at a profit. Not why I have them

@natetepp @HawkMetrics For profit duh

The Seahawks continue to incentivize season ticket holders to attend games instead of selling. They are rewarding fans who had high attendance with early seat selection access. Kudos to the team for working to protect a key part of the brand and competitive advantage.

@jaxhawks @hawkblogger Because I love being a part of the 12 family, the consistency of my same seats, and then I also attend every home playoff game. Also, I NEVER sell my seats online. Have arrangements with ST holder in my section for all my unused seats so he can bring more friends.

@HawkMetrics @hawkblogger Why be a season ticket holder then?

@SeahawksForever @Disney @YouTubeTV I got my email last week.

So @disney channels are back on @YouTubeTV ….. cool. But I never got my $20 rebate email. Did any of you? We should still, right? Two weeks without being able to watch MNF and most of the best CFB games….. we were promised compensation.

@CorbinSmithNFL Complely agree. The importance of division need to be maintained

The NFL's playoff system isn't broken. I have no idea why anyone is trying to "fix" it. Division titles need to matter. There aren't many 2010 Seahawks in history - those are outliers. Rewarding a wild card team with home games would be silly.

@BusyAZMom @EvanHillHB @Seahawks Well I use the “transfer “ option in my Seahawks account manager so I assume they can see that I transfer 5-8 games per season.

@HawkMetrics @EvanHillHB @Seahawks I think it is only posted resales. If you give/sell to someone in your section, it would only be tracked I suspect if that person listed them online for sale.

EXCELLENT move by the @Seahawks to crack down on season ticket holders possessing tickets & reselling purely for profit. Fuck yeah. Let’s make Lumen loud again.

@hawkblogger @mattyfbrown @bcondotta Brian, what would you guess at being the primary factor in Geno wanting out? Wanting to play for Pete again? Switch to a new run orientated offense? Other?

@mattyfbrown @bcondotta Only sharing the lowest reported offer feels intentionally inflammatory. The truth is Geno’s camp never came back with a counter. He wanted out. This wasn’t about the team lowballing him.

Remember Breer reported Seattle’s offer was closer to $35million and Geno’s camp wanted closer to $45million. Pretty insulting low-ball I’d say, given $45million a year would only have been 12th-highest QB salary, cap is rising, and yet % of cap number might even be shrinking?!

@CorbinSmithNFL Very good point.

@CorbinSmithNFL I am not sure I love this. JSN was so good in the slot last year. Would you see them moving JSN or Kupp to the outside if they make this deal?

@SeahawksForever Great post. Thanks for the rational outlook. If the draft capital and cap savings helps us fix the oline, this is a great move. Love Geno and sad to see him go, but I think Darnold (given cheaper, younger, and draft assets) can be a good move for us.

I understand the reluctance of some fans to embrace the Darnold signing. Old perceptions are hard to change. We saw that up close in regards to Geno right HERE. Some fans never bought into him even after a large sample size of high performance. Once you make up your mind about a player (especially a QB) it's hard to change it. I get it. But Darold is talented. Very talented. And finally showed signs of being the player he was expected to be when he was a high pick. He's a smart dude. Hard worker. Great locker room guy. Has underrated athleticism and should be an excellent fit for the scheme (which he knows well). Has overcome adversity and come out better for it. He's Geno Smith 2.0. I still believe they wanted to keep Geno and were expecting that to happen. To be surprised as they were by the turn of events, be able to pivot quickly and sign a solid QB who's 7 years younger, costs less, on a very manageable contract, AND get a 3rd round pick.... I qualify that as good work. NOW the focus shifts to three major issues: **FREE AGENT OL **Which QB will they draft, and when? **The WR room

@EvanHillHB If that is the structure, would that mean like a year 1 7m cap figure?

$15M fully GTD for Ernest Jones. Knowing SEA doesn't guarantee base salaries beyond the first year (at signing)... maybe like a $12M signing bonus? $3M year one base salary? Just guessing here. No insider knowledge. Excited to see the details. @ me if you see them please.

@ernestjones53 Congrats! Well deserved and the 12’s are so happy you are staying! Go get it!!!

AHHHHHHHHH LFG❗️❗️❗️

@hawkblogger Brian, is there a 4pm EST deadline today for people released to become “street FA’s” (meaning they can sign with anyone immediately)? If so, I would think they do right by Tyler and release him today to give him maximum flexibility in finding a new team.

The Seahawks have released: OT George Fant S Rashawn Jenkins DT/Edge Dre'Mont Jones DL Roy Robertson-Harris That saves them about $27M in cap space, moving them well above the line. I would still expect news on Tyler Lockett later this week & maybe Geno Smith.

@hawkblogger * Raises hand… that is me! I am pleased with the Kubiac hire and fully on-board, but admittedly got really excited about Udinski the more you heard people talk about him. Would have been a risky hire but feel like a really high ceiling.

The potential for FOMO among Seahawks fans is probably highest with Udinski.

@AllbrightNFL Year in and year out you have a great feel for these coaching vacancies early on in the process. Well done @AllbrightNFL

Before the pinned tweet, this was my initial guess on Jan 7th I wish that I had put McCarthy on the Saints list at that time but of course the Cowboys job wasn’t open yet.

I think Udinski, Fraley, and Kubiak are all outstanding candidates for @Seahawks OC. Each have their unique +’s and risks. The information gathered in interviews is key. Something is as fans are not privy to. I trust whatever decision is made. Fired up for next season! Go Hawks!

@hawkblogger @BenGoessling This was an excellent segment! Thanks @hawkblogger

Grant Udinski gets a 2nd interview. So did Klint Kubiak. Hank Fraley was the first candidate announced. @BenGoessling knows them all, and shared why he thinks it's just a matter of time with Udinski 🎧 patreon.com/posts/ben-goes… 📺 youtube.com/live/tMtZUm1Pp…

@hawkblogger Oh man I miss Dr. Browns. Brings me back to my childhood. Have a great trip Brian. Go Hawks!
