The Seahawks are a .500 team at the midway point of the season, but when coach Pete Carroll looks at the season so far, he sees a team that could be 8-0.
Carroll said on 710 AM in Seattle that Sundays loss to the Lions was frustrating in part because it was so close to a win he could taste it. And he has felt that way all four times the Seahawks lost this year.
Its so close. Were so encouraged by where we are and what weve done, Carroll said. Look at these games. After eight games we could easily be 8-0. We could be 8-0 right now. And I think I hate to think of it this way but if you go ahead and you look at us a year ahead from now, when these guys have been through all of this, then all of these edges that we need these little edges that you need if they fall in our favor then we have a great football team.
