Seattle to win out; go 12-4?

[HedgeHog]

While all the focus has been on Dal & GB, Seattle is a legit sleeper for the NFC Title. Winners of their last 4, the Seahawks are now 8-4 with a weak schedule left. I see Seattle 11-5 at worst, and in all likelihood a solid #3 seed:


10 Nov 12 SF 0 @ SEA 24 FINAL 68,331 SEA Matt Hasselbeck: 278Yds SEA Maurice Morris: 87Yds SEA D.J. Hackett: 101Yds

11 Nov 18 CHI 23 @ SEA 30 FINAL 68,249 SEA Matt Hasselbeck: 337Yds CHI Cedric Benson: 89Yds SEA D.J. Hackett: 136Yds

12 Nov 25 SEA 24 @ STL 19 FINAL 65,423 SEA Matt Hasselbeck: 249Yds STL Steven Jackson: 90Yds SEA Deion Branch: 92Yds

13 Dec 02 SEA 28 @ PHI 24 FINAL 68,445 PHI A.J. Feeley: 220Yds PHI Brian Westbrook: 93Yds PHI Kevin Curtis: 111Yds

PS What's the best future price on Sea for NFC Champs?

[Travis]

That's probably a good call. Sea is bound to lose at least one, maybe two though, Balt and Carolina aren't total dogs at home.

"Sleeper" is the correct term alright as I need vivarin to watch these cocksuckers.

I hope they get Dallas again this year so Romo can throw 5 TD passes on them.

Look at that schedule you just posted last four wins SF, CHI , STL, PHI, then the four games coming up ARI, CAR , BAL , ATL. . . Not one playoff team there, add up those teams combined records. . . No Chance of winning the NFC

Seer & LV1:

If not Seattle (10-1 for NFC at The Greek), then who has a price shot in the NFC? Dallas is oversold at odds on and GB's price is poor as well.

[Louisvillekid1]

Nobody, Dallas isnt bad a -180 , and green bay +385, however if your looking for a price the 3rd best team in the NFC is minnesota, then run the sh*t out of the ball with two dominant backs and play great D against the run. T Jackson is improving and makes plays with his feet and his arm. The running game is controling the offense and not making T Jackson win the game for them. . . You want a price take Minnesota +3000

[The Seer]

Don't think there is a good one in the NFC. I don't see anyone going to Dallas or GB and winning. Possibly NYG. They are dangerous and can score and put pressure on the QB. I'm beginning to think that the Pats could get upset though in AFC.

[Seattle Slew]

I liked Seattle to win the NFC to start the season but don't like them anymore. Their defense is atrocious and they are a terrible short-yardage team, two things that will kill you in the playoffs.

Look at their schedule. The only team with a winning record they have beaten is Tampa, in the season-opener. They only played two other winning teams, Cleveland and Pitt, and lost both.

I still think they can be a threat because of their offense, but don't see them winning in Dallas. Maybe at Green Bay.

[SBR Lou]

Seattle is one of those teams that come on strong late. They aren't a serious contender in my mind. Dallas is a much more mature team this time around. I still think they could've beaten them last year in the playoffs with a different gameplan but oh well.

[The Seer]

Shawn Alexander is more overrated than sex with Asian chicks.

[HedgeHog]

Very good posts. Looks like a GB/Dal rematch is very likely. Who can get out of the AFC, other than NE of course?
