As I said, Seattle will ultimately beat themselves. They won't make it to NY. Sorry, but I've seen this play out before - a talented but occasionally undisciplined team thinks they're the shizzle and ends up choking when the moment of truth arrives. This is what happened when Minnesota was supposed to be unbeatable at home back in 1998 (Randy Moss' first year). Seattle's a lot like that team. Very, very talented, but lacking in discipline, and character doesn't just change at the flip of a switch. A team can't escape who they are.
You must be referring to my Oregon Ducks

Can remember if A team that had 4 interceptions actually held on to win a football game either in College or Pro...or high school, or even that game where you flick a paper triangle thru a fake upright...what WTF happened there in Seattle. I have to listen to all these Cardinal fans here in Arizona talking it up like they are Superbowl contenders now...

I'd rank Carolina, SF and yes, even Arizona above Seattle right now.

The Seahawks offense looks bad. Period.

No run game in a month.

In that same month they've went from 40% on 3rd down to around 18%. They've got as many FG's in the red zone as they do touchdowns.

The D can only do so much... and the fact they spotted the offense 4 INT's that were turned into 0 points (including a 1st and goal on the 3) is pretty pathetic. On a side note, the D has given up a lot of rushing yards as of late.

Also, did I mention 100+ yards in penalties yesterday? The Seahawks lead the NFL in that category.

The 49er fans have already started... a billboard went up in Fife (south of Seattle) with a photo of 5 Super Bowl trophies and the caption "Got Lombardi's?"

LOL

Seahawks drop to the 5th seed... LOL
Image if Seattle beat the Rams and San Francisco loses to the Cards.....and New Orleans loses to Tampa Bay (not likely) Arizona would be in the playoffs.

About the bill board, if San Francisco is still living in the past (23 years ago) since their last SB title Seattle has little to fear from a bill board. It isn't what you did yesteryear, its what you accomplish now that counts.

But I guess the reason the Falcon are somewhere in the lower levels in the power rantings is because of all those SB trophies and their win over the Hawks last year.

Yep... what team are you more scared to play? Arizona or SF? SF right?

What you should be worrying about is if Seattle loses to the Rams and SF beats AZ... the Seahawks would blow the division and drop to the #5 seed. SF could even get the #1 seed, if that happens and Carolina loses to Atlanta.

Dude... nobody cares about the Falcons... not even me.

You keep bringing it up? Why?

Let's talk about the Seahawks and how utterly BAD they have looked the last month of the season.

Where has the run game gone?

Where has the 3rd down conversions gone?

What about Russell Wilson and his craptastic play on Sunday?

The only thing the Seahawks have done right other than beat a bad Giants team was get 9 picks in the last 2 games, and ZERO points off.

I will TOTALLY LMAO if the Seahawks lose to the Rams and blow the #1 seed.

The 3 losses in 4 games (including the last 2 at home) would go down as the MOST EPIC CHOKE in history and you'll never hear the end of it.
