[QUOTE="PackFanInSC, post: 149409, member: 598"] [url=http://www.seahawks.com/Team/Transactions.aspx?year=2005]2005 Seattle Seahawks Transactions[/url] Which of these free agent acquisitions after Ted left Seattle were the ones that propelled them to the SuperBowl? Or could it have had more to do with them playing a rather weak NFC West division -- along with the maturation of players like Alexander and Hasselbeck? First of all, the information is incorrect. Ted was in Seattle as [b]Vice President of Football Operations [/b],[i] not GM[/i], from 2000-2004. During Thompsons time in Seattle, The Seahawks advanced to the playoffs in two of the five seasons there with several players Thompson helped acquired through the draft. Some of the notable players Thompson selected in his tenure with the Seahawks were running back Shaun Alexander, kicker Josh Brown, guard Steve Hutchinson, and wide receiver Darrell Jackson, cornerbacks Marcus Trufant and Ken Lucas, safeties Ken Hamlin and Michael Boulware. Their records in those years were 2000 6 - 10 2001 9 - 7 2002 7 - 9 2003 10 - 6 2004 9 - 7 Unless my math skills are failing me, that would be a record of 41 - 39. Even if you count 2 early playoff exits, that would be 41 - 41 -- Not under .500 [/QUOTE]
