So, is the real reason we go base defense all the time because they didn't like their nickel back...or did we just trade for someone that wont get on the field?

They like their nickelback. He's played well. This is head scratcher.

I see it as basically telling Thompson he sucks and is no longer a starting.
However, prior to the 2017 season Diggs was moved to safety, and since then he has started 32 of a possible 38 games.

Though Seattle did need help at safety, with several players hampered by injury, Diggs’ addition is not just an in-season quick fix: The defensive back is in the second year of a three-year extension worth $18.6 million, and is signed through 2021.

Seemingly a part of the Seahawks’ future for the next several seasons now, it will be interesting to hear and see where Pete Carroll plans on deploying the new addition.

But last 3 games he hasn't sucked.

This is about most critical I have ever seen Mr. Sunshine, aka PC be about a player of his. He has now backed up these words with action.
The coach is the opposite of fired up about free safety Tedric Thompson.

It looks, and sounds, like Thompson’s starting job may be the one Blair takes—though, again, that could be dependent on McDougald’s back healing well enough to play. McDougald can and has effectively played both free and strong safety the last three seasons for Seattle, which interchanges free and strong safeties sometimes with each play.

On his morning day-after radio show Monday and again with doubling-down comments in his afternoon press conference, Carroll said it was inexcusable for his defense to give up Baltimore’s 50-yard pass from Lamar Jackson to Miles Boykin, who was well behind Thompson on the game’s opening series Sunday. The play set up a Ravens field goal, the first of two field goals to which Seattle held Baltimore’s offense until the final 2 minutes of the third quarter.

“We made a big mistake early. Gave them a freebie down the field,” Carroll said.

“Just distasteful. I hate it, that we gave them that. There’s no way that should ever happen.


“Other than that, I thought Marquise did a really good job.”

The timing of those quotes is odd. It almost looks like he is saying Marquise did well, except getting beat deep.

I noticed he has a streaming consciousness style of speaking and if you read the whole article it is more clear what he meant.
