NWSB Editor and Insider Chris Anderson talks about the first two days of Seatle’s OTAs. Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch, and Percy Harvin (to name just a fraction of the offensive stars on the roster), give Seattle huge potential heading into 2013. Their defense isn’t too shabby, either, as the Legion of Boom will be back in full force while the defensive line continues to shape-up nicely.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Brandon Choate brings us his 5 depth chart positions that will up for grab when the Seattle Seahawks hit camp this year. Will Malcolm Smith become the new starting ROLB? While Sidney Rice and Percy Harvin are set, they look to see who wins between Golden Tate and Doug Baldwin. Chris Harper and Jermaine Kearse will also battle. As will Tony McDaniel, Jesse Williams and Jordan Hill on the interior line.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Brandon Choate brings us some good reasons why Percy Harvin will make this Seahawks team even better. With his flat out speed, Harvin is the ultimate playmaker. He can take screen passes the distance, can take a handoff the distance and can take a punt or kick for a touchdown. He is one of the most dynamic players in the NFL today according to Brandon. Coupled with Russell Wilson expect some colorful trickeration.
NWSB Insider and Seahawks’ Blogger Ben Tole talks about regardless of what the two teams at Century Link Field are playing for on Sunday the Hawks have been doing nothing over the last month but making statements.

Normally it will be a top 10 list, a la David Letterman style. This time it was the Seahawks doing the foiling of plans late in the game. That’s right, a rare road win for the Hawks in Chi-Town, as the team moves back into the Wild Card picture.

NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Alistair Corp breaks down the play of the game from the matchup with the Minnesota Vikings.

NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Brett Bivens today tells us no matter how you slice it, the Seahawks have a record of .500. But at least they’re not in last place in the NFC West anymore. Nickelback is an interesting position says Brett. Marcus Trufant hasn’t done anything special. Brett wants to see if the Seahawks activate Walter Thurmond, release him, or place him on season ending injured reserve.
NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks blogger Clinton Bell tells us about the ninth game of the season for the Seahawks, a Sunday afternoot matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. Home sweet home for the Seahawks this weekend, and hopefully a return to the win column. Adrian Peterson is back from injury for the Vikings, and has been a menace to opposing defenses this year. This will be a great test for Bobby Wagner and K.J. Wright, and hopefully get them back on track.
