That may be true, but lots of things go out the window when you’re a QB.

Yeah, honestly it's weird to me but they don't fukk with him like that. Like he overstayed his welcome or something.
RUSS PLAYED FOR THE HAWKS
LONGER THAN ALL OF THOSE GUYS
I might be wrong but that's what it feels like in terms of who would get Seahawks honors first. That might change when he's completely done though
the worse of the jersey number stuff is what Abdul Carter doing
wanted to wear 56, LT said nope
wanted to wear 11, Phil Simms family said nope

Jersey retirements for football and baseball are stupid.
Just do a ring of honor.

Nah don't do this now, defend your stance. You said he's the GOAT Seahawk and other names were listed. People were saying Russ got carried by that defense too.ok breh you right. Russ was a bum and doesn’t deserve to get his number retired. He didn’t do shyt in Seattle
Most likely gonna be underwhelming if anything. Blaze ya own trail brehs

Idk breh I never been to Seattle in my life or ever met a Seahawks fan. Them nikkas were irrelevant till Russ started turning up. I know defense wins titles but he wasn’t Trent Dilfer. He was legit one of the best QBs in the league during his run there.
I might be wrong on him being the best Seahawks player ever but a dude like that needs his number retired. Matt Ryan didn’t win shyt here but he turned our team around & made us at least respectable and he’ll get his number retired.
I feel like if a QB is one of the best in the league, spent a majority of his time with the team and won a ring is a player who deserves his number retired
Better than:
Steve Largent
Cortez Kennedy
Walter Jones
Bobby Wagner
Those guys were/will likely be first ballot HOF games
ok breh you right. Russ was a bum and doesn’t deserve to get his number retired. He didn’t do shyt in Seattle
So evaluations are binary? A player is either a bum or the greatest player in franchise history? Come on, son. Move from me with that juvenile mindset.
Frfr. That's a clown way of debating. Smh.
Some teams refuse to do it. Like the cowboys and raiders
The Seattle Seahawks have retired five jersey numbers in their history:
12 (in honor of the fans, "The 12th Man"),
45 (Kenny Easley),
71 (Walter Jones),
80 (Steve Largent),
96 (Cortez Kennedy)
12 (in honor of the fans, "The 12th Man"),
45 (Kenny Easley),
71 (Walter Jones),
80 (Steve Largent),
96 (Cortez Kennedy)

You really need to potentially make the same level of impact on the franchise and play on the other side of the ball.
Him wearing 56 or any player wearing a legendary number at the same position is lame as hell, but with the different number rules these days, I think the crossover element makes it dope. There's never been a #3 on defense in Seattle ever so it's some intergenerational shyt off that alone.
No WR should ever wear Julio's #11 in Atlanta again, but I wouldn't mind if Jalon Walker wears it
