In 2009, the Seattle Seahawks made LB Aaron Curry the No. 4-overall pick in the NFL Draft. In 2011, they are still waiting for him to do something. Anything. Apparently, they don’t want to wait any longer, because they have shipped him to the Oakland Raiders, according to FOX’s Jay Glazer. “Sources on Raiders & [...]
In 2009, the Seattle Seahawks drafted Wake Forest LB Aaron Curry with the fourth-overall pick. They are most likely regretting that decision as he’s contributed next to nothing since he’s been on the team. Someone in the Seahwaks organization noticed that he hasn’t done anything, because he’s lost his starting job. That’s right, K.J. Wright [...]
In 2010, the Seattle Seahawks spent a pretty high second-round pick on Notre Dame WR Golden Tate. His rookie year was pretty underwhelming and he’s failed to show much of anything in the preseason. And according to ESPN’s John Clayton, who knows the Seahawks better than any other team, Tate might not make the team [...]
According to Mike Lombardi of NFL Network, the Tennessee Titans are prepared to make a “huge” offer for former Seattle Seahawks QB Matt Hasselbeck. I know, I know, when you first saw the headline, you thought that they were going to bring in Elisabeth Hasselbeck to preach illogical conservative politics to Kenny Britt. But, that’s [...]
The other night, while being thoroughly entertained by those awesome ESPY awards, Seattle Seahawks WR Golden Tate noticed that NASCAR’s Jimmy Johnson was up for Best Male Athlete. He didn’t think that Johnson should be eligible. “Jimmy johnson up for best athlete???? Um nooo .. Driving a car does not show athleticism,” Tate tweeted. So, [...]
Yes, let us again preface this post with “We’re sick of writing about these damn Kevin Kolb rumors.” There is no league right now and no one can do anything. Couple that with the fact that the Philadelphia Eagles, Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals all have very good reasons for putting out smokescreens, and it [...]
Former Denver Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels has been linked to several offensive coordinator positions this offseason, but most recently he was supposedly hot and heavy with Steve Spagnuolo and the St. Louis Rams. We heard not too long ago that talks had broken down, but they apparently picked up again, because he’s accepting the [...]
The folks at Qwest Field, home of the Seattle Seahawks, have some splainin’ to do. It seems that they charge $1.25 more for a large beer than they do a small beer. However, the people buying the large beer are getting ripped off. This YouTube video shows exactly why. The two cups are exactly the [...]
There were many thoughts running through every NFL fan’s head last Sunday evening as they watched the St Louis Rams play some sort of football against the Seattle Seahawks. Let me list a couple: Have I ever seen Charlie Whitehurst in a porno before? Please stop talking about the 12th man. Why am I still [...]
The New Orleans Saints are sitting at 6-3 this year and a game behind the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC South. The Saints have been pretty good, but not nearly as nasty as last season. Is it because they are without Reggie Bush? We doubt it, but a lot of the talking heads are saying [...]
Seattle Seahawks (+6.5) over Chicago Bears Two teams have never controlled their own destiny this early in a season more than the Chicago Bears and Seattle Seahawks. If either team wins out, they will win their respective divisions, which makes this Week Six match-up OTR’s Featured Game Of The Week. Unfortunately, for the Seahawks, Sunday’s [...]
There has been speculation for quite some time now that the Buffalo Bills were trying to move Marshawn Lynch. When Ryan Grant went down for the year, the Green Bay Packers wanted him. When LeSean McCoy showed up on the injury report with cracked ribs, the Philadelphia Eagles wanted him. Or so we thought. It [...]
Since you aren’t going to go back and actually check, you’ll have to take my word for it when I tell you I am 100% spot on in my NFL picks this season. This week, I yet again will pick the games that JA and Perry were afraid to. They like to pick “low hanging [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, OTR’s predictions for sports events are different than other sites, because we’ve never ever been wrong. Whether it’s a mock draft or just a regular season game, we are always 100% spot on. How many can say that? So, with that in mind, let’s take a look a couple of the [...]
San Diego Chargers rookie RB Ryan Mathews is battling a high-ankle sprain and he hasn’t been able to do much this week. Earlier, there was an NFL Network report that Mathews would be unlikely to play against the Seattle Seahawks this week. Now, the San Diego Union-Tribune is confirming that report. However, both NFL Network [...]
The Seattle Seahawks released RB Julius Jones this weekend in a somewhat surprising move. The team already has Leon Washington and Justin Forsett on the roster, but they are hardly load carriers. But, Seahawks GM John Schneider, who may or may not have played Bo Duke on “The Dukes of Hazzard,” decided to bring Jones [...]
The Baltimore Ravens and WR T.J. Housmandzadeh have agreed to a one-year, $855,000 contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, who also writes for ESPN and talks about football on the ESPN television network. “Ravens reached agreement with former Seahawks wide receiver TJ Houshmandzadeh on a one-year, $855,000 deal. More at espn.com,” Schefter tweets. Ok, Seattle [...]
A source tells Danny O’Neil of the Seattle Times that former Seattle Seahawks WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh is expected to sign with either the Washington Redskins or the Oakland Raiders. According to O’Neil, the source has spoken recently with the 32-year old free agent. The Seahawks are probably hoping that he gets the biggest contract he [...]
We mentioned recently that the Seattle Seahawks have put WR T.J. “I think I’m way better than I actually am” Houshmandzadeh on the trade block. But, the fact that he’s 32-years old, a shell of his former self and due $7 million this year, make that all but impossible. So it’s no real surprise that [...]
Jason La Canfora of NFL Network reports that the Seattle Seahawks are actively trying to move WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh. Have fun with that one. “SEA trying to move TJ Houshmandzadeh, but unlikely anyone takes him on. WR due to make $7M-plus guaranteed in ’10. He’s available, though,” La Canfora tweets. Yep, you read that right. [...]
What a mess we have out here in San Diego, huh? Chargers’ WR Vincent Jackson (and their left tackle Marcus McNeil) have refused to sign their restricted free agent tenders and are demanding long-term deals. Now, the team has placed them on the roster exempt list as of Friday night. This means that once they [...]
A source tells Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee that the San Francisco 49ers have solved their little problem with AWOL Kentwan Balmer. The source says that the Niners have traded the former first-round pick and current first-round bust to the Seattle Seahawks, who seem to like collecting other people’s junk lately. Terms of the [...]
When it comes to wide receivers in Cincinnati who tend to make headlines with their mouth, the first person every one thinks of Chad Ochocinco. We personally love him and think he adds a lot to the sport. We’re also pretty sure that he can be a handful at times. But, two sources tell Jason [...]
In Super Bowl XL, the Pittsburgh Steelers knocked off the Seattle Seahawks in what was one of the worst Super Bowls of all time. The game was relatively close at 21-10, but in general, it stunk. It was awful because the Steelers weren’t all that great and their QB Ben Roethlisberger had a horrific, rape-like [...]
And now every single 2010 first-round pick is signed and should be in camp practicing soon. According to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen, the Seattle Seahawks have agreed to terms with No. 6-overall pick Russell Okung. “Filed to ESPN: The last one’s basically in – Russell Okung agrees to a 6-yr deal w $30 mill guaranteed, $58 [...]
