2024-25 NFL/Seahawks Season Thread
Posted: Fri Feb 23, 2024 3:29 pm
With all the 2023-24 football over now, and the NFL Combine coming up next week, it's a good time to turn the calendar to the upcoming season.
The big news for the Seahawks is the almost-complete turnover in the coaching staff--new HC, OC, DC, and many position coaches. The hiring decisions in Seattle have been and will be made for the first time by GM John Schneider. Previously Pete Carroll had final say on all hires.
Unlike last year's off-season, where much was known and predictable and the general offensive and defensive philosophies were known, things are really uncertain with the 'Hawks this time around. Everything will be different to some extent, with a new head coach and coordinators. Offensive and defensive philosophies will change. The Seahawks have a number of important decisions to make about their players--whether to extend them, cut them, franchise-tag them, trade them. These decisions, along with the ideas/thinking of the new HC and coordinators, will determine the team's success in the 2024-25 season.
So it's very early days at this point. I think the first newsworthy happenings will be during the free agent period which will start in about two weeks. I think a lot of important information will become available during this time, with some player churn likely. Stay tuned.
