They have one two major things working against them that is one it's so hard to win back to back SB's and two they are asking Sam Darnold to win back to back SB's. Has anybody in history ever won back to back SB's with a non elite QB?
Well once upon a time they saying around these parts was that you couldn't win a SB without an elite quarterback. It's what gave McVay a leg up on Shanahan. He had Stafford. Kyle went for Lance. Darnold proved that being serviceable with a good team around you is all it takes. Unfortunately for us we were in that situation twice (second time with an above avg QB) and still couldn't get it done. Oh well

We were this version of the Seahawks in 2019:
A team that came out of nowhere to become a powerhouse thanks to some good drafts and suddenly had a lot of great, young and cheap players with a young and exciting coach.
The difference is that the Niners blew their chance of winning the Super Bowl that year.
The Seahawks might not win another Super Bowl in the next 5,8 or 10 years but they already won it.

Ha! If we did that everyone would be saying "we're desperate and we have to go scrambling for their leftovers" Surely it's the highest form of flattery that they feel the need to pilfer our lower level staff and promote them?

I mean, promoting our TE coach to their OC seems kind of pathetic IMO.
