Pat Bowlen stepped down to deal with Alzheimer's disease. On the plus side, he won't remember what happened during Super Bowl XLVIII.
On the other hand, he won't have any less memory than any of the rest of us of any Seahawk Dynasty...
Sadly, he'll likely have no memory of what's about to come out of New England over the next year or two.

The 2015 Superbowl champion New England Patriots start camp today. God bless America!
That always works so well when Rex Ryan says it too.
Go Fins!!!
This photo, from CBS Minnesota, shows the entirety of the line to buy single-game Vikings tickets for much of Tuesday morning, when they went on sale.
Toughing it out was Anthony Williams, who had the day off work and showed up at 5:40 a.m., more than early enough to be first in line. Williams said it wasn't until 7:00 or so that anyone else joined him.
"I probably could have slept in a little while, later and still been first in line," Williams said with a laugh.
By the time tickets actually went on sale at 9 a.m., there were 14 people in line. And that included reporters doing stories on the lack of people in line.
I don't blame people for staying home! The Vikings will be playing the next two seasons at University of Minnesota TCF Bank Stadium, while their own new bird deathtrap stadium is constructed. TCF Bank Stadium is outdoors. It gets cold up there. And still, ticket prices are up an average of 27 percent over last year. And waiting on line at Vikings offices merely gave fans an hourlong head-start on internet purchases.

Still, that left the pick of the best seats to those willing to work for them, like Williams.
Williams bought for himself and four friends. They'll be attending the Week 4 game against the Atlanta Falcons.
Williams wanted the season opener, but that would have required him to buy tickets to another game as well.
The only man in the Twin Cities who woke up early to buy Vikings tickets absolutely didn't want to go to more than one game.
It sucks but it'll be taken care of by seasons start. If it's not oh well run with what you brung. Still got a QB something the Jets or Dolphins have none of.
You are correct about the Jets. We have a good QB but a terrible OL. We get that fixed, you will see how good Tannehill is.
I think your definition of good QB is suspect.

As is yours.
Dumbest comment of the week. Congrats! You win another season of disappointment and irrelevance.

Dumbest comment of the week.
Yeah, our 2nd year QB who had only 19 games of college experience only doubled his TD total and passed for nearly 4k yards while gettting sacked 58 times.
Any chance I was ever going to consider you one of those rival fans who at least "knows his football" is pretty much out the window at this point. I suggest you read something NOT put out by the Bandwagoning national media on the Dolphins. I can see it a mile away when people just regurgitate something they read from some national guy who can get his head out of Belicheat's rectum.

I find your commentary ironic given the fact that in the past two years, Tannehill has beaten teams QB'd by Brady, Andrew Luck, and...your own Shorty Wilson.
You guys really think Tannehill is better than Wilson?
You guys really think Tannehill is better than Wilson?
try and remember Wilson put up those numbers with 2nd and 3rd tier receivers.....
He's at least as good if not better than Wilson.
At least in statistics.
Passing completions, passing yards, and touchdown passes are all as close as they can get.
Tannehill did it without an O-line or a running game.
But those are facts and we know how well those are received around here.
And Tannehill didn't?
I think you just qualified for dumbest comment of the week.
Good job!!
