A New Era in Seahawks Football

Bringing the House illustration

Yesterday, the Pete Carroll Era in Seattle Seahawks football began with a dominant 31-6 victory over NFC West rival and preseason division favorite San Francisco 49ers. The Seahawks looked particularly tenacious on defense, which is Carroll's specialty. During his reign at USC, Carroll's defenses were characterized by athletic play makers who flew to the football and caused turnovers. Hopefully, in a handful of years, we can say the same about the Seahawks. For now, Carroll's main focus is trying to get his players to buy into his system of high competition, fun, and hard work. Carroll aims to not only build a solid team this season, but also to develop a strong organization for years to come. He wants to "Win Forever." So, in honor of that mission, I created a banner that features Coach Carroll, rookie Earl Thomas, and the team's main goal, the Lombardi Trophy. Enjoy.
