Go Seahawks & Go Bengals!
Welcome to our weekly therapy sessions! Back in the days of Steve Largent the Seahawks were my favorite NFL team, outside of my beloved Bengals. I started following them because my brother and his friend were Raider fans and I got tired of hearing them all the time. So I came to love the Seahawks because they were in the AFC West and always gave the Raiders fits. Chuck Knox was the coach at the time.
It's always nice to see see there is class and intelligence in other teams fan bases; we don't get to see too much of that around here with the Steelers, Ravens and Browns.
Again, welcome aboard. Would love nothing more for our teams to meet again to finalize this season.

During the superbowl I was amazed at how fast the Seahawks D ran to the ball and the punishing hits given. I think our Defense (outside of the line) needs to step it up a bit for a chance at reaching the superbowl and beyond.
Not sure what youre talking about. Our defensive line is one of the best in the league.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy

Also, Bruce Arians is the best coach in the NFC right now in my opinion. I'm not affraid of them, but clearly respect them a lot.
I know those kind of fans (most of them are just trolls) and don't like them. I read forums of our opponents the week we play them to know their team better and sometimes if I have enough time I register and say hello. But I'm always trying to be respectfull even if I don't like their team too much. And I've never had a problem to congratulate a better team.
About the picture above, I actually think it's funny. I know we have a lot of bandwagoners but that can be said about almost any team in the history at some point. I don't like those "fans", but what can we do? Maybe losing another 2 or 3 games and they will all be off the bandwagon. :jk: Luckily (or unluckily) for me where I live (Slovenia, a small country in Europe) there is still not too much interest in football. There is a small internet community with fans from different teams (most of them are Pittsburgh fans ) and we follow the games together, but most of them don't like the Seahawks. So I have more to do with "haters" than bandwagon fans.
Of course I also follow Seahawks boards and know some of our fans can be difficult to get along at times, but again, you can found those kind of people in almost any fan base. I'm usually just ignoring them.
Oh, I almost forget to thank you all for a warm welcome. I'll probably stay around for a while.
.....welcome here anytime my friend.

.....yeah....the one that came back to get his medicine after talking smack. Other than him, I don't remember any being here.....and he was in the smack forum. I didn't want to be rude, the guy shouldn't be in JN, but he is welcome on these boards in the proper forums anytime as far as I'm concerned.

Oh I completely agree, I don't even mind the occasional fan like this in JN to have rational conversations since I don't browse as much in the Around the NFL board.
I just thought I remembered you specifically saying that to a Chargers fan and then like 5 minutes later the dude got the boot from here. All is fine and dandy until Wyche tells you that you're welcome here!

I think I'm one of the few right now that says Gio is and has always been the better RB when healthy. I see a little bit of Kurt Warner's greatest show on turf in the Bengals (speed kills).
I 2nd that.

Go Seahawks & Go Bengals!
I would not be worried if I were you about your team. That defense is still awesome and Russell Wilson might be the most exciting QB in the NFL right now. We very well migh t be playing you again this season.
