@BenjaminSolak Mike Mac was saving it for a rainy day.

Devon Witherspoon had 21 pass rush snaps in 14 games this season before the Super Bowl 6 in the Super Bowl

@tvbzify OK. I'm waiting.

If the Seahawks win the Superbowl I will give everyone that engages with this $50

@NFL_STats_R_Us @FB_FilmAnalysis ...and also because they have Nick Emmanwori doing his best Kyle Hamilton imitation. When your nickel package includes a guy with good coverage skills who's as big as a linebacker, it creates possibilities.

@FB_FilmAnalysis Because they have the best interior defensive tackle duo in the NFL in Leonard Williams & Byron Murphy II. Not to mention Demarcus Lawrence 😮‍💨

That’s the issue with SEA. They don’t commit resources to stop the run yet rank 2nd in defensive rushing success rate.

@LongStrider420 @theStevenRuiz With time and therapy, maybe one day he'll be able to say the name without shaking his fist angrily at the sky.

@theStevenRuiz That’s funny Steven, you sort of acknowledged that Darnold is good but couldn’t use his name. That’s progress.

just build the Seahawks defense and hire Mike Macdonald and draft JSN and get that good/above average QB on a below market deal and you can make it work!

@benbbaldwin @theStevenRuiz You can almost see his fingers on the keyboard as he typed "good," paused, then added "/above average."

@theStevenRuiz Steven said Sam Darnold is good. We made it

@FB_FilmAnalysis It will be the AI that manages to steer clear of the Shedeur Sanders debate.

Which AI will be the first to able to identify duo or inside zone at a 90% clip?

They’re probably still in the debating the value of running backs phase of social network

@jimrome Every defense has off nights. The LOB got torched every now and then.

This Seattle is defense is NOT the second coming of the LOB

@allthekenz Could just be "Jaye Essen"

MY DAUGHTER IS GOING TO HATE BEING NAMED JAXON SMITH-NJIGBA

@BenjaminSolak Famously, the over/under on wins for this team was 7.5. Now they're headed to the Super Bowl.

What an enormous, enormous achievement from the Seahawks. Enormous roster turnover this year. Every offseason move -- free agent, trade, draft -- was nails. The Kubiak hire was an unbelievable lift. A truly perfect two-year build from Mike Macdonald.

@BenjaminSolak Teams keep trying to run on the Seahawks in those situations. Arguably, against this defense, that's a passing down.

On the season, the 49ers have now had 12 plays of 3rd/4th down and 2 or fewer yards against the Seahawks' defense They have 4 first downs.

@FB_FilmAnalysis Fans are gonna fan.

Being a bit reactionary here

@sama My number-one request for Chat-GPT is simple: allow me to change my login email! My account is locked to an email account from a company that no longer exists. I'm dreading the day I get a 2FA prompt when logging in and lose all access to my chat history.

@Purd0me @theStevenRuiz As a fan of no team in particular (and certainly not the Seahawks) I concur with your unbiased opinion.

@theStevenRuiz I’m an unbiased third party who is a fan of no team but Darnold needs to be top 10 in the next edition of The Ringer’s QB Rankings (not a Seattle fan (unbiased (third party)))

that's a perfect go ball

@emollick Related point - search Google or LinkedIn for "AI transformation" jobs and they're all run by IT. Transformation isn't all about tech, it's also about people, and IT is poorly equipped to manage that transition well.

The big weak spot of AI discussion on X is that is dominated by technology experts & computer scientists I buy that they know more about the underlying technology than anyone else, but I do not think they necessarily have the same insights into what AI means for work & society

@ARCDigiFuture They can't laugh with friends, or have their heart broken - true. Still, my mind goes back to that study in which patients rated ChatGPT more empathetic than human doctors. At some point the simulation of humanity becomes good enough that there's no meaningful difference.

Hey writers: GOOD NEWS! AI isn't replacing you yet. It turns out Claude is a better writer than 95% of humans, but not better than you. LLMs are content beasts, neural networks with brain-like activity and reasoning power. But, do you know what they can't do? They can't laugh with friends, or have their heart broken by a cutie. They will never hold a child, or be left out at recess. They'll never be you. Since they can't experience pain and pleasure, they can't understand action and consequence. More coming sooooooooon! I had a great time in my first "no edit" AI short story writing exercise. Still working on the full write-up.

@emollick Short-term impacts will largely be executives with a mostly theoretical understanding of AI's current capabilities overreacting in the direction of job loss. Longer-term, we'll all be using AI and will need to keep learning as the models evolve. Very long term = speculative.

The sooner we pivot the critical discussion away from “the issue with AI is that it is isn’t broadly useful to many jobs” to “what are the implications of AI being broadly useful to many jobs,” the sooner we can start to mitigate negative impacts & focus on positive use cases

@turbotax Your software autofilled the wrong state (CA, should be WA) on my 1099-INT and now it's blocking me from e-filing because the zip code is "incorrect." The zip code is correct; the error is on your side.

@CaptainHoagiePA @BenjaminSolak It’s perfectly simple: when Dak has a good game, it’s because he’s a great player. When he has a bad game, it’s because his coaches failed him. Applies to every situation.

Sports media can be a tough job. There is so much to follow and so many good analysts. It’s easy to feel like a poser. And then I remember that Mike McCarthy told the Cowboys he watched every play from the entire NFL season, got the job, and said “lmao I didn’t do that.”

@BenjaminSolak Classic scapegoat firing - throw the coordinator under the bus in the hopes of saving your own job. Offensive coordinators don’t fumble, throw interceptions, or leave 12 defensive players on the field in a critical situation, so this will solve nothing.

The Bills OC and DC have both lost their jobs in the last nine calendar months

Dak Prescott has to be the MVP of playing well in games that don't matter.
