What we cover and what we do not
Field Gulls, Seahawks Wire and the team's own site break news faster than we can, and we link to them rather than repeat them. What this page adds is the stuff that is useful days later: a report you can check on Friday to see how a player trended across three practices, a transaction log with dates rather than a scrolling feed, and game writing that says what we actually think. If a story is genuinely breaking, the beat writers have it first and you should read them.
