DK Metcalf urges Seahawks fans to avoid selling tickets to Vikings fans

DK Metcalf urges Seahawks fans to avoid selling tickets to Vikings fans

The Seattle Seahawks are hosting the Minnesota Vikings at Lumen Field in Sunday’s Week 16 showdown. It qualifies as Seattle’s final regular-season game at home. Mike Macdonald’s club won’t play another contest at Lumen Field during the 2024 campaign unless they win the NFC West division. They currently trail the Los Angeles Rams for that crown.

In Week 15, Lumen Field was infested with Green Bay Packers fans. The Seahawks were dominated by the Packers, losing 30-13 in non-competitive fashion. That setback may encourage The 12’s to continue selling their season tickets to the visiting fan-base. It’s been a recurring issue this season, with a similar outcome versus the Buffalo Bills earlier in the schedule. Superstar wide receiver DK Metcalf hopes that isn’t the case on Sunday.

“We still need them to come out and be supportive,” Seattle receiver DK Metcalf told reporters on Wednesday regarding the home fans. “I know in the first quarter, second or third play of the game, it got crazy loud in there. I looked around and there were a lot of Green Bay fans. They did a great job traveling, but just wishing us 12s didn’t sell as many tickets as they did to make sure we kept the home-field advantage. But yeah, man, it would mean a lot just to take this last one home and finish off the season strong so we can play again in front of them in the playoffs.”

The Seahawks will visit the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field in Week 17 on a Boxing Day edition of Thursday Night Football. In Week 18, they’ll visit the Rams in a potential NFC West-deciding divisional showdown. Hopefully Metcalf and his teammates feel The 12th Man offers them a proper sending-off en route to their playoff-deciding contests in Chicago and Los Angeles. It could be our final opportunity to watch our beloved Seahawks at home until next September.

Seahawks fans share reactions on Twitter to the end of the 2023 season

Here’s what the 12s are tweeting following their team’s season-ending win on Sunday.

These Seahawks are not quite who we thought they were. Heading into the 2023 NFL campaign we projected an 11-6 record during the regular season. Early on it became clear that they had the potential to reach that mark. At midseason they were 5-2 and looked like they could at least compete with the brutal strech of opponents that began in Week 9 against the Ravens. As it turned out, this team was indeed talented but also severely mismanaged, fundamentally flawed and nowhere near as good as Super Bowl contenders like Baltimore and the division rival 49ers.

Along the way, the team lost several other games that they could have won – including a back-breaking defeat at the hands of the Los Angeles Rams, an unlucky finish against the Cowboys and a brutally embarrassing failure against the Steelers last week. Penalties, poor tackling and questionable coaching decisions plagued the team at different times throughout the season, resulting in a disappointing 9-8 finish and missing out on the playoffs for just the fourth time in the Pete Carroll era.

Speaking of the face of the franchise, a lot of fans seem eager to move on from Carroll this offseason. Others will support him no matter what, and some are just happy to be along for the ride. Here’s what the 12s are tweeting following their team’s season-ending win on Sunday.

Seahawks players and fans celebrate Bobby Wagner’s return

Here’s how players and fans are reacting to the good news.

The greatest defender in Seahawks history is returning to Seattle on a one-year deal. Bobby Wagner isn’t back one moment too soon, either. No NFL team had a greater need at linebacker and nobody got a bigger upgrade this offseason.

Here’s how players and fans are reacting to the news.

NFL scripted conspiracy theory is relatively popular among Seahawks fans

Conspiracy theories have become even more popular than professional football with some folks.

Conspiracy theories have become even more popular than professional football with some folks.

Near the end of the 2022-23 season, the idea that the NFL is scripted was born out of an elaborate joke that former Texans running back Arian Foster told on a podcast. He claimed the league literally sends players scripts for what’s going to happen before the season begins. Though hilariously and obviously untrue the idea took off, especially with the… imaginative crowd on social media that thinks Bills safety Damar Hamlin died from taking the COVID-19 vaccine and has been replaced by a clone.

Don’t laugh too hard – because the rigged NFL storyline is a relatively popular idea with Seahawks fans. The data comes from BetOnline.AG, which shows they have the fifth-highest percentage of tweets about it.

There’s a lot to unpack here, from the comical entitlement of Cowboys fans, to the fact that the Rams literally won the Super Bowl the previous year. Perhaps the biggest takeaway is that Jets fans have suffered enough to know that a loss is a loss.

Mina Kimes: ‘Of course’ Seahawks fans are booing Russell Wilson

Watch Mina Kimes explain why nobody should be shocked by this development.

Russell Wilson will probably retire with the Seahawks one day and all this ugliness will be long forgotten. For now, Seattle’s former franchise quarterback is public enemy No. 1 based on the reaction he got from the crowd at Lumen Field on Monday night. While it’s not a surprise to anyone who’s been following the story the last few years, a lot of pearls are being clutched by sports media over Wilson’s treatment.
