re: Anyone else watching Seattle and worried that our OC could be a major issue?

That has nothing to do with the 2025 Seahawks offensive performance that is lukewarm in all frank analysis.


The OP had 2 season-long data points listed, one from college and one from the NFL. You took issue with the NFL data point, but seemed to couch it in a way as it was the only data point being used to question our OC. It wasn’t the only data point.

We’re obviously limited in data or it would be obvious to most people if Grubb is an issue or not. I, for one, am not willing to say Grubb’s offenses prior to the Seahawks are definitive proof he’s a good OC. The P12 didn’t have near the defensive talent or defensive coaches as the SEC or NFL. If you have NFL talent on offense but play in a weak defensive conference, you’re going to look like a genius. The last 2 seasons of data points are not instilling confidence that Grubb can hang with the best defensive minds. That said, hopefully it was just 2 seasons of different things beyond his immediate control (QB at Seattle, OL coach at Bama). Time will tell

However it is a bit dodgy to make broad pronouncements about Grubb based off what Klint Kubiak did in Seattle.


I think Bama’s worst rushing offense in half a century kind of disproves your “dodgy broad pronouncements” based on 1 data point from NFL theory.

The question had been discussed before, although last night was the final data point of information pertinent to the discussion we’ll get this season.

I stayed somewhat neutral on previous discussions (or stayed out of it) as I hadn’t watched a lot of Seattle this year, but watching them last night coupled with all the previous discussions has me concerned.

For those saying it was all Seattle’s defense (which they were obviously very good):

Seattle gained ~340 yds offense on the Patriots, which was close to 100yds more than any other team in the postseason (LAC, HOU, DEN). Seattle’s defense was great, but their offense moved the ball on the Patriots’ stout defense. It’s pretty obvious the OC did a good job in Seattle and was part of their success for winning the Super Bowl.

(And according Ystar, would have put up 21 more points if Darnold had seen a few open receivers. If true, that means the OC was clearly doing a great job attacking the Patriots’ defense).

Does anyone really think if Grubb was the OC with all the new players, that Seattle still wins the Super Bowl? I think it’s pretty obvious the answer is no, and that’s a somewhat depressing realization for some of us alumnus.

This entire thread is embarrassing. Just stop. Darnold BTW just missed another wide open deep route and if he had been accurate they would have 21 more points. This game is all about Seattle's defense. They have made this game




Ystar - you just called something embarrassing right before making a statement that actually helps prove your embarrassing comment is wrong. How embarrassing

Ty averaged 237.8 passing yards a game under grubb, geno averaged 254.1 they may be more equivalent than you think.


Pretty sad attempt at cherry picking stats. Ty had 28 TDs to 5 INTs. Geno had 21 TDs to 15 INTs.

In case you struggle with math, that means Ty had 33% more TD passes than Geno while Geno had 300% more INTs than Ty.

Well, he didn’t have Geno Smith last year at Bama, or the college equivalent of Geno Smith.

I know it’s been discussed some, but they’re literally dominating the Super Bowl the year after firing Grubb for having an atrocious running game, and Bama immediately has our worst running game in nearly 50 years.

I hate that we’re going to be so young at OL and QB, because people are going to absolutely load the box on us if needed to stop the run and force us to pass next year. I won’t be surprised if people are calling for Grubb’s job by November, but hoping he can turn things around.

A&M players were doing high school ball bush league stuff last week in Tuscaloosa. It was absolutely embarrassing and showed Bucky was an insecure high school coach still.

I literally told my family walking out of the arena that A&M better grow up because that stuff won’t fly in this league for long. Completely embarrassing to be pulling high school stunts in an SEC basketball game

UNC hits a buzzer beater to beat Duke. MoD with the game winning O-board on a missed FT against UT. Oats continues his dominance of the entire Pearl family. What a fun day of basketball!!

Jang apparently doesn’t understand the difference between method and “methed.” It’s probably all the times he’s been “methed” that is the issue

AU fans are great fun.

Their best basketball coach in the history of their program….and his son…have never had a winning record against Bama’s current coach. But, somehow they’re number one in the state despite having a losing record to Bama’s current coach and about 40 games behind in the series. AU fans are like the gift that keeps on giving

Nice bump. Nepo baby Pearl is following in his father’s footsteps to never have a winning record against Oats. Their best basketball era all time and still 2nd fiddle in the state.

Bruce never had a winning record against Oats…ever. Not even for a single game.

Stephen is now 0-1. If he loses in Ttown, he may be just like his father.

If they had called that AU’s ball, I may have lost it on Oats for the blown challenge. We’re in this, but have to play clutch basketball and actually play a little defense.

Need Sharell to stay in the game, especially if this goes to OT
