locker room was ready for the season to be over. The end is always abrupt in the playoffs and the Seahawks had to pick up the pieces after a dreadful second half led to a 41-23 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday.
"Out of all the great things that we did, all the accolades, all the great stats, there's still so much room for improvement. ... the new season for me starts today," Smith said Saturday night. "That means a lot to me. I've got a lot of loyalty in me. And, you know, I want to repay those guys for doing that."
"Geno doing stuff like that and just showing us like 'nah, this is what's up.' We're still hungry. We're still eager. We're pissed that we're at home now but we just can't wait to get back." They also have to improve in their defensive front seven as poor run defense and line of scrimmage control, combined with bad tackling fueled much of the team's defensive issues. Jordyn Brooks is likely questionable for the start of next season due to his ACL tear and Cody Barton is an unrestricted free agent as well, which leans the linebacker position extremely thin.But the strength of the rookie class has provided such a rejuvenating boost to Seattle's future outlook.
