Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
That defense was something else last night. Sure Carson Palmer is a #fuckingdreckfest but Seahawks D is a lot of fun to watch. They should get the #1 seed as most of the rest of their schedule is now terrible. They can afford to lose to San Fran as long as they beat NO.

The only thing that could really stop them is Wilson getting hurt, which is obviously a higher risk with Okung and Giaocomminohoweveryouspellit out. But if they get those guys back and keep Wilson healthy, they should waltz to the Super Bowl.
The Legion of Boom versus Peyton and those receivers is going to be an incredible matchup if it materializes. Of course, Manning will have to win a game or two in the cold to get there. I won't be heartbroken if he doesn't.
(tiebreaker superiority guy)
It won't be easy but I feel like SEA is in the drivers seat especially considering they still get both Tackles and Percy Harvin back (also Bobby Wagner on defense).
The Titans have a solid defense and Kaepernick turns into shit if he gets rattled early which I could see happening.
The only other games on the schedule I could see a slip up for San Fran are @NO, SEA, @ARI (they only beat Arizona by 12 at home).
Seahawks have looked sloppy but are still 6-1 with 3 road wins. Part of the sloppiness is the banged up O-Line. I think our recievers are pretty decent, Baldwin is really underrated, Tate has really started to come one, and I agree with your assessment on Rice. I hope these rumors that he is still coming around from his knee surgery are true.
I am just excited to see this offense with Percy. It will be a nightmare to have to think about him, Marshawn, and RW all at once.'
This is still Lynch's offense too, I don't care what anyone says.
Also, kudos to the Seahawks last night. Well kudos to the defense. they played pretty well and didn't let
LettermanLenoEd SullivanCarson Palmer Do anything significant. Yes I have been saving that corny gag for months.While Tjack pissed me off the first time he was a Hawk, he appears to have a calmer head on his shoulders this time around. I think if Wilson did go down, Tjack is good enough to get us wins as long as our defense remains consistent (or gets it together and plays to their actual potential which they have yet to do for a full game).
Wilson really makes plays and extends drives. Up only 17-13 that third down play where you think he is going to get sacked and he is running with his left hand, switches it to his right and completes the pass just before his knee hits the ground was amazing. Seahawks would score a TD that drive too.
I loved how the Seahawks dominated the LOS. Arizona couldn't get pressure from their front four they had to constantly blitz the Seahawks. It worked sometimes but more times than not that allowed Seattle to have huge plays.
On the other side Seattle didn't have to blitz at all and was getting constant pressure from their ends Clemons, Avril and Bennett.
This team is 6-1 with being 3-1 on the road. Harvin has yet to take a snap, Okung has basically played just 5 quarters this year, Giacommi has been out, Wagner just missed two games, Unger missed two games, Avril missed a game, Irvin missed 4, Browner missed 2.
Most of those injuries would devastate a team yet the Seahawks are so deep they are still 6-1.
If Pete can keep this up (Win Super Bowls) he will be a lot like Bellicheck. Both failed their first gig in the NFL but learned from what they did wrong and became great NFL coaches.
Watching the post game yesterday and seeing how well Seahawks fans traveled made me think of the Huskies in the 90's when we used to frequently take over stadiums.
When you are a great team every week is a big game like you said because with this crowd if the Seahawks get homefield they are going to the Super Bowl. If they have to play an NFC title game in New Orleans though that will be very difficult.
What is the Saints remaining schedule look like? I haven't really looked at it.
