There is a massive difference between having drinks and being an alcoholic. You obviously aren't one....

I'm in the Rasheed camp. Horton can't stay healthy. JSN and an aging Kupp can't do it all. RS gives us a burner teams have to respect, which opens up our offense everywhere.

Loved K-9 when he was on the field, but his greatest success came as a platoon bell cow with Zach and that left him with enough juice to carry us in the playoffs after Charbs got injured. If he does it all season with KC and doesn't wear down or get hurt, more power to him, but I'll be surprised. RBs have a short shelf life and I'm good with Price and his fresh legs under contract.

Did you miss that? Walker decided midway through the season he didn't want to play there anymore
"If I'm being honest, probably sometime during the season," Walker told Florio. "Things didn't work out how I was expecting them to, and that's alright. It worked out for the team. But yeah, sometime during the season. And then we get to free agency, and you're pretty much knowing you weren't going to be there
No, but apparently you missed this...

That just sounds like the words of someone that was butthurt that he wasn't offered a big contract by his former team. He also said this right before the Superbowl...
“I've been here four years, so you know I've gotten to know a lot of stuff about Seattle, and you know a lot of the city, and I feel like they feel good about me as well,” he said. “So if it was my choice, though, I'd definitely stay.”
The reality is that none of us knows what he was thinking leading up to free agency. We do know, however, that the Seahawks weren't interested in paying him his value on the market because they didn't make on offer prior to the FA period, didn't attempt to match KC's offer later, and opted not to use the franchise or transition tags on him. Instead they decided to offer Shaheed a contract larger than what Walker got from KC.
None of us knows what his thinking really was going into free agency.

176 days since I threw away my Guinness and PBR. 35 pounds shed. I thought as a Coug and brew boy that I would miss beer more, but I don't.
