I've searched two different forums this morning and no one has started a game day thread at all. I see fewer and fewer posts than ever before about the team. Is this proof that there is apathy toward the season? Maybe, maybe not. Nonetheless, the overall enthusiasm for the team seems to be a bit muted to me.

It's closer to trepidation on my part.
I don't know what this team is going to do from game to game this year.

I'm down in Las Vegas for the weekend, and I saw remarkably fewer Seahawk jerseys on game day than I have in previous November trips. We are still well represented, with far, far more evidence of support than other west coast teams like the Niners, Cards, Rams, and Chargers. But there is no mistaking that the feeling is different than in past seasons. It used to be that on game day, I couldn't walk 200 feet down The Strip without a "Go Hawks" or a fist bump/high 5 and the bars were filled with Hawks fans. But not so yesterday.

On a lighter note, despite having their best team in over a decade, I saw ZERO Rams jerseys despite the fact that they are geographically closer than any other team save the Chargers, of whom I also saw ZERO jerseys.

You probably saw fewer jerseys all together (all teams). The NFL is in a quagmire that they don't know how to get out of.
