Mike Macdonald kicked off his tenure as the Seahawks’ head honcho on a high note with three triumphant wins streak, pero pues, as they say, "la vida es una montaña rusa," and lately, that rollercoaster’s been going downhill. The team’s recent encounters with the Lions and the Giants have turned into a bit of a reality check, with cracks appearing in the once formidable defense.
The Defense Dilemma
In a tough Sunday showdown, the Giants edged out the Seahawks with a 29-20 win, bringing Mike Macdonald to face the music on Monday. Channeling the honesty of Albert Einstein with a gridiron twist, Macdonald admitted, "We weren’t good enough to win the game in all three phases." He made it clear that despite the present setback, the coaching crew is holding onto a "never say die" spirit. Still, they’re embracing the mantra, "the truth will set you free," as the truth is the recipe for success remains unchanged, like your abuelita’s secret for salsa.
“We could be 5-0 right now, and the message would still hold: we’re early in this season, we’re growing, and we’re not there yet. But, ¡caray!, we are hungrier than a lion at lunchtime, and we’re charging forward with gusto to make it happen,” Macdonald voiced, lighting a fire beneath followers of the team.

Will the Seahawks tame those unfriendly skies above San Francisco? Or will the Niners build a wall too strong to breach? Fasten your seatbelts, amigos. Thursday night’s game is a ride you won’t want to miss!
