Richard Sherman Praises Seahawks After Impressive Three Game Stretch

Former Seahawks star Richard Sherman weighs in on whats fueling Seattles early-season surge under new leadership.

Four weeks into the 2025 NFL season, and if there’s one word that sums up Mike Macdonald’s Seahawks, it’s resilient. After a gut-punch loss in Week 1, Seattle has rallied for three straight wins - each one telling a different story, but all three reinforcing a clear message: this is a team learning how to finish.

It started with a near-upset of San Francisco in the opener. Down by four with the game on the line late in the fourth, Seattle’s offense had a shot to stun the defending NFC champions.

Sam Darnold dropped back, hunting for a game-winning play. Instead, disaster struck - the ball deflected off right tackle Abraham Lucas and landed in the lap of a 49ers defender.

Game over. Painful?

Absolutely. But it served as an early gut check - one they clearly took to heart.

Fast forward to Week 2 in Pittsburgh. Things didn’t start much better.

Darnold got the Seahawks on the board early but also tossed two picks in the first half, and Seattle went into the locker room trailing. That could’ve been the beginning of an ugly road trip.

Instead, Seattle came out swinging. The defense tightened up, the special teams showed out, and Darnold responded with the kind of second-half performance this team badly needed.

Final score: 31-17 Seahawks - a comeback that injected some swagger and belief.

By Week 3, they weren’t just surviving - they were cruising. Hosting the Saints, Seattle posted a commanding 44-13 win and showed off a rising star in the process.

Rookie wideout Tory Horton not only grabbed his second touchdown of the season but also electrified the crowd with a 95-yard punt return touchdown. That kind of explosiveness is exactly what Macdonald’s team needs as they look to build a new identity in year one.

And then came Arizona - a short-week divisional test with all the makings of a trap game. Seattle led 20-6 early in the fourth, only to watch that cushion evaporate.

But instead of crumbling, they regrouped. Darnold orchestrated one final drive to get them into position, and kicker Jason Myers drilled a 52-yard game-winner at the buzzer to lock in the 23-20 win - Seattle’s third straight.

The Seahawks head into Week 5 sitting at 3-1, and they’ve already proven they can pick themselves up off the mat. Whether it’s bouncing back from a heartbreaking home loss or finishing off tough road games, this group is showing the kind of mental toughness that travels.

Green Bay Packers Shock Fans by Releasing OL Brant Banks – A Dangerous Roster Hole Opens Up
In a stunning move that has left the NFL community buzzing, the Green Bay Packers have officially released offensive lineman Brant Banks. While Banks wasn’t considered a star, his presence added much-needed depth to a fragile offensive line. Now, with his sudden exit, the Packers find themselves facing a major personnel gap – and fans are asking: What is really going on in Green Bay? Brant Banks – The Unexpected Cut Brant Banks was never the centerpiece of the Packers’ offensive strategy, but his addition to the 53-man roster earlier this season was seen as a safety net for an injury-riddled O-line. That safety net is now gone. This decision has sparked heated debates across the fanbase: Some argue Banks simply wasn’t up to NFL standards. Others believe Green Bay acted recklessly, cutting him at a time when depth is critical. Either way, the release feels like a dangerous gamble for a team still trying to establish stability under quarterback Jordan Love. A Gaping Hole in the Packers’ Roster By letting Banks go, the Packers have created two open spots on their 53-man roster, fueling speculation that a bigger move is on the horizon. The reality, however, is troubling: Aaron Banks remains sidelined with injury. Depth now relies on practice squad players like Lecitus Smith. Without reinforcements, Jordan Love could be left unprotected against relentless defensive fronts. This isn’t just a minor roster adjustment – it’s a structural risk that could derail the team’s momentum. Packers Nation Reacts – “What Are We Doing?” The reaction from fans has been explosive. Social media is flooded with angry and worried comments: “Who’s supposed to protect Love now? This is madness.” “I don’t get the strategy. Cutting Banks is like pulling bricks from a shaky wall.” “Unless there’s a blockbuster signing coming, this move is a disaster.” For a team that prides itself on tradition and calculated decisions, this cut feels reckless to many in Packers Nation. Expert Analysis – Strategy or Crisis? NFL analysts suggest this move may be more than just a performance-based decision. By opening up roster space, the Packers could be setting the stage for a free agent signing or a trade acquisition. Still, until a new face arrives in Green Bay, the fact remains: the Packers’ offensive line is thinner and more vulnerable than ever. The Packers’ decision to part ways with Brant Banks has done more than just free up a roster spot – it has opened the door to speculation, criticism, and growing unease. For a team already under pressure, this move could either mark the beginning of a bold strategy… or the start of a dangerous collapse. Is this a calculated step toward a bigger signing, or a sign that Green Bay is spiraling into a roster crisis?Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: the entire NFL is watching the Packers’ next move.
