I don’t think that will happen. Seahawks D is just about the best, and, yes, Sherman is that good.

I grew up in the Bay Area, but live in the People’s Soviet of Washington, so it was a weird game for me to watch.

Living here, the one thing I was really worried about is the mania around the Hawks here. Had they lost, you’d have seen suicides, and I’m not joking.

There’s an old movie called The Wave, that reminds me a lot of what I’ve seen here lately.

Anyway, Manning’s not terribly mobile, and they don’t have a very effective ground game. It will be interesting to see what a pocket passer (like Brees) will end up doing against the Seattle D.

Kaepernick was incredible on the ground, but they shut down Gore, who I thought would go for 100 yards or more, as he’s wont to do against Seattle.

If Denver’s D really is ranked 19th in the league, Seattle’s O may actually get something done. There are still some very real things wrong on offense in Seattle.

They will get Harvin back, and he’s really that good, so we’ll see what happens. Lynch is as good as advertised, and the Seattle O-line has played admirably though they have been down to second and third stringers throughout the season.

I didn’t think the Hawks had a shot against Pittsburgh in 2005, but I think they’ve got a legitimate shot this year.

Seattle got ZERO sacks yesterday. That stat’s got to change if they are going to win. Again, Manning’s a pocket guy, so they don’t have to worry about him squirting off the end in a read-option, etc.
