Team is fine. LIPO.

The NFC is imploding. Foles is out for a long time, Dallas is crashing hard, and SF fans want their team to die in a plane crash. Seattle is winning games despite being injured as fuck. The goal should be to just make the playoffs and see what happens. There isn't a powerhouse at all in the NFC. Right now the #1 seed is Arizona quarterbacked by Carson Palmer.

Sanchez isn't gonna be that much worse than foles

I agree. Carroll mentioned this morning they could get 6-7 guys back for next weekCuntWaffle said:Team is fine. LIPO.
he mentioned okung, unger, chancellor, hill and lane.
they should beat the struggling giants (they're 7-8 point favorites) and go to 6-3 heading into KC.
Seattle and SF were clearly the best teams in the NFC last year, I don't see any dominant teams that the seahawks absolutely couldn't beat if they sneak in as a WC.

I'm not ready to put the division off the table either. The Cards are good but they're not this damn good, they beat our Iggles on a Hail Mary and beat the Cowboys thanks to Brandon Weeden. If Seattle can beat them at home in three weeks and be one game back for the rematch in Arizona the second to last week of the year it sets up for a classic Carson Palmer choke/injury/abundance.dhdawg said:

OTOH Seattle's schedule is tougher down the stretch - each has four road games Arizona's slate of St Louis, Seattle, San Francisco, Atlanta is much easier than Seattle having KC, Arizona, SF, Philly. OTOH Arizona's home schedule is tougher: KC, St Louis, Detroit, Seattle vs NYG, St Louis, SF, Arizona. I'd rather have Arizona's schedule for sure but it's not inconceivable both emerge at 11-5 with Seattle winning both head to head and getting the tiebreaker.
Most importantly SF looks legimitately mediocre with not only the .500 record but a negative point differential. They're not a contender. -
They are looking at 4-5 since they have to play at New Orleans next week. Playing in New Orleans would actually be the worst case playoff scenario IMO. They are a juggernaut at home and seems like they score at least 30+ no matter who they play. I would think Seattle would be pretty big underdogs in that case.dnc said:

And their fans *hate* Seattle thanks to the two playoff losses in the CLink and the Monday night raping and especially having to play the playoff game in Seattle when we were 7-9.SteveInShelton said:

Definitely agree traveling to NO is worst case scenario. -
All we can hope is that we stay in the hunt until we get healthy and then we get hot.
Saving Lynch until we're out of the playoffs doesn't make a lot of sense. -
NO proved last year they could not match up with Seattle physically. They got their doors blown off in the regular season, and then got beat up again in the playoffs (the Seahawks took their foot off the gas up 16-0) but they are tough at home.
I'd give them about the same chance to win no matter the venue.
That said I still think they can win the division -
Cards got their asses kicked by the Broncos (yes they ended up with a third string rookie qb during the game). Manning tore up their defense though. They seem due for a two game losing streak. Their skill guys are okay but nothing great. You need to knock Johnny Carson Palmer around some. It effects any statue q.b. (see Brady).

The Hawks lose at KC, Philly, NO and Arizona.
Cook it. -

Injuries are killing the Seahawks. When healthy, they are still a very good team. Like you said, get to 6-3 and take it from there. It could look a lot different a month from now if the Seahawks get healthy.dhdawg said:

Arizona is a really good football team. Good running game, arguably one of the best WR trios in the NFL, and they play very good team defense. Have they caught some breaks this year? Yes. If romo plays Sunday I'm almost certain the cowboys win, the eagles choking away the game last Sunday, so I do think the 7-1 record is a bit flukey, however I can't see them winning less than 11 games, Seahawks almost have to sweep them. That Sunday night game week 16 could be for the divisiondnc said:

We will have to sweep Arizona to win the division. I fear that the Rams loss will end up costing us though. We have a very tough schedule left. @KC will be very tough and then you still have 4 against SF & Arizona and @Philly. That is 6 tough games and have to go 4-2 so that we can get to 11-5. 10-6 might not make playoffs.

No question on that. Two games back with half the season left and a more difficult schedule, they aren't passing them without a sweep.dhdawg said:

After looking at Foles' stats (which really suck this year), I would actually agree. Sanchez will do pretty well in Chip's system. Sure he will turn the ball over but so did Foles.dhdawg said:Sanchez isn't gonna be that much worse than foles

New Orleans is a completely different team away vs. home. The splits are probably larger than the mid to late 2000's Seahawks teams. It seems to be the case again this year as they are undefeated at home and have only 1 road win (against a dreadful Carolina team).dhdawg said:NO proved last year they could not match up with Seattle physically.

Bump for my FS analysis here. Saints suck, I don't care if Seattle has to play them in the playoffs.SteveInShelton said:
