Ok Seahawk Fans...

[BetterBizness]

Aside from us having NO CHANCE to win the bowl and all the haters telling us how terrible we are... despite beating the Champs...

Who do we want next week?

I think the best road to Round 3 is clearly through Chicago... I will give the chance to Cutler anyday of the week to F that game up...

We also know our record travelling 3 time zones... I don't like our chances at ALL in Atlanta... at least we had a strong effort in Chicago...

GO PACK!

[DrunkHorseplayer]

Irrelevant; they get crushed either way.

[d2bets]

As a Bears fan, I agree....go Pack.

True though. I figure Seattle +6.5 vs. Chi; +8.5 vs. Atl.

[TwampSix]

Was at the game today!! BEST game ever!! We need that Packers to win tomorrow so we can play the Bears at home again!! Lets go Hawks!!

Bears were a mess when they played Seattle. Different team now. Seattle has a strong home field. Seems unlikely they would go into Chicago in January and win. But if I was Seattle I'd probably prefer that matchup too, given the earlier win and the familiarity.

Just like today.

Just like today.

Seattle home vs. road, big difference. They always have a shot at home.

True though. I figure Seattle +6.5 vs. Chi; +8.5 vs. Atl.

Interesting Perspective for sure... Both teams want that matchup by miles...

Seattle Would rather play in an outdoor stadium, with weather possibly an issue, and Jay Cutler at the helm...

Chicago wants the worst team in the playoffs, coming off a complete emotional high ready for a letdown...

NO ONE wants to go into Atlanta...

GO PACK!

[TwampSix]

Seattle has a better chance against the Bears. ATL will crush us!!

[BetterBizness]

Seattle home vs. road, big difference. They always have a shot at home.

And everyone has a shot at the Bears with Cutler... both are accurate statements...

[samdapatriotsfan]

Yep, looks like Seattle's season may end next weekend but I will still sprinkle a little on the moneyline and hope for the best.

[BetterBizness]

As a Bears fan, I agree....go Pack.

True though. I figure Seattle +6.5 vs. Chi; +8.5 vs. Atl.

I think +6.5 is right... I think it's closer to +10 in Atl...

[Dave ATS]

Not a Hawk fan but thanks for the dough!!!

[Vesuvius]

Irrelevant; they get crushed either way.

Would have to agree here, they will get smoked

[Prop Bet Master]

Maybe I can take the bag off my head now! That was a good win. Best chance for an upset is clearly against Chicago, but they suck on the road. But if they can somehow pull it off, maybe Green Bay upsets Atlanta and then they would play the NFC championship game at home with a chance to go to the Super Bowl!

[kcDdegenerate]

I need Eagles to win tomorrow so Falcons can have Seahawks for lunch next week

[Gilly86]

If theyre +11 at home against a wildcard team what would they be on the road, in atlanta, the "best" team in the nfc?

[tylerguy02]

It will still be around +10 or lower on the road since they've beat the Saints. I don't see this going any higher or Vegas will be in trouble.

[BetterBizness]

Only point about how bad the Hawks are on the road is that after 2 straight games of finding "it" with a bunch of guys who really have nothing to lose... Could it be possible that "it" is found... even on the road... hard to think...

[DrunkHorseplayer]

Just like today.

Whole different ballgame for the Hawks on the road; FWIW, I had Seattle plus the points today.

[tylerguy02]

It's different for any team on the road....Saints were 13-3 on the road the last two years until today.

[craig4nr]

I think we're all in agreement. Chicago is the better option. I was pretty sure they'd pull it off today (we all know that's what happens when everyone is so sure it'll go the other way). I'm not so confident about next week. Here's hoping.

[Art Vandeleigh]

Hasselbeck sure laid in some beautiful passess, it was a performance fitting someone who has been to the Super Bowl (and played well enough to beat the Steelers in that game). But good luck to him trying to do it again on the road and getting 41 points again.

[smitch124]

I gotta think they are more than 10 point dogs at Atlanta...

[BetterBizness]

I gotta think they are more than 10 point dogs at Atlanta...

Funny thing about that statement... AS mentioned in another thread...All a team needs for motivation sometimes is to be known as a dog... I.e The Jets... who were barely a dog...

Give the Hawks MORE motivation... call them 14 point dogs say... Gives a team like the Hawks even MORE to come back with... They are ALREADY playing with nothing to lose... Only team I see play without any pressure are in the AFC, Pitt, and NE... those teams never feel an ounce of pressure...

Atlanta... One good season... Chicago... uh.... Green Bay... Phily?

Not saying Hawks make it, but if they were to make it... NFC is the Conference to be in...

[BetterBizness]

Chi town it is!!!

[BGboothA]

Cutler has the ability to crap himself at any time....very happy to be going to Chicago

[BetterBizness]

Bears D is WAYYY better then Saints D, off the Bye... and are relatively healthy...

Seahawks have no pressure... Momentum... Relatively Healthy... AND have played (and beat) them in Chi this year...

Pure Wildcard: How will Mr. Cutler play... He is clearly the difference...

[onlooker]

Whole different ballgame for the Hawks on the road; FWIW, I had Seattle plus the points today.

I understand that. But not many, even the books, gave the Seahawks much of a shot in Saturdays game.
It is the NFL, any team has a shot at winning, even on the road.
