Last year, the Bears were atrocious looking up at the 15-2 Lions, 14-3 Vikings and 11-6 Packers. This year, they’re playing for the division lead in Week 16. Things can change if the team actually makes impactful change.
And what did the Bears do? They raided the Lions staff hiring Ben Johnson.
We are in the same position. Raid the Seahawks staff. Bring in Kubiak. Play calling head coach that has played a role in developing one of the best wr’s in the league.
No gaurantee he would be interested but this is a no brainer.

Already living in the PNW, I wish it were easy to just become a Seattle fan and be done with Arizona, but it doesn’t work that way. I tried to explain that to my son who is just now showing interest in football.

Do I allow him to become a Seattle fan or subject him to a lifetime of torture as a Cardinal fan???
Let you child decide. Do not have kids but raised my nieces and nephews. Youngest niece is the only one showing a keen interest in football by following FA and drafts. We teamed up on fantasy football for a few of years with me being the money man and her picking the players. We won some years. I took her to many Cardinal games here in St Louis but she decided to follow the New Orleans Saints. It was her choice. Was not too pleased but at least she did not choose the Cowboys.

I think we need the 49ers to lose to either the Colts or to the Bears so that the week 18 game between the 49ers and Seahawks doesn't decide the division. If that 49ers vs Seahawks game decides the division, then the Rams may rest a bunch of guys and we could potentially win that game which would hurt our draft position and probably our chances of getting rid of JG. If the Seahawks also lose to the Panthers, then the 49ers, Seahawks, and Rams all have a chance to win the division in week 18.

So this comes down to if your kid is more of a leader or a follower. If he is a leader, then you can put some work in and maybe you get a couple of his friends on board. If he is a more of a follower / go with the flow then the friends will mean more.

There is also a playoff positioning, even for the wildcard team

Would you rather play Tampa Bay in the first round or the Eagles?

The refs definitely did the Rams no favors but they went too many 3 and outs to allow Seattle back into the game. Not a fan of either team but I can't stand the Seahawks more I think, mostly because of the Carroll and Sherman.

Puka needs his phone taken away and never allowed on social media again.

Since when did kids need parental permission to become a fan of a certain team? Lol I mean I suppose you could try to influence, but forcing is a whole other ball game.
Oh I would never prohibit them from liking any sports teams, but there are things you can do to influence the situation. They have ASU, Suns and Cardinals jerseys.
