The Seahawks’ 2023 season came to an end yesterday. One could blame the Bears’ total inability to beat the Packers, but the truth is that they made their own bed, as DK Metcalf told reporters earlier this week. At the end of their last game of the year, we heard more players and coaches taking accountability for how their season ended.
Here’s what head coach Pete Carroll, Bobby Wagner, Quandre Diggs, Geno Smith and a few other players had to say after the game.

Bobby Wagner still loves this team
Not in the playoffs, so Bobby Wagner is not happy. He’s real. He says the cigars-smoking, music-blaring right now in #Seahawks locker room postgame at Arizona is youth.
No victory cigar for Wagner? “No,” he says. “Not at all.” Also “I love playing for this team” @thenewstribune pic.twitter.com/dFGOyZgEKI
