I have been meaning to post something like this for a long time and I probably won't articulate it well, so I will just ramble. This is mainly for those of us that have been rooting for the Seahawks for 20, 30+ years and have been through season after season of disappointment and frustration and just want to finally win a Super Bowl once in our lives.
This is the best regular season in Hawks history with the highest expectation to win the Super Bowl. It's been an amazing ride and an incredible feeling to be in a good mood 12 out of the last 14 weeks. How many years did we sit here at 6-8 or 7-7 trying to come up with the permutations of 6 other teams losing, and not really have a true chance to win a Championship.
This team seems to have it all to win 2 home games in January and then win a Super Bowl. If that doesn't happen, it will just be so devastating because of all the decades or waiting & the expectations.
As everyone knows, anything can and does happen in the NFL playoffs. This isn't the NBA where the best team will almost always win.
I am praying we go on a 1985 Bears type run in the playoffs [they outscored their opponents 91-10] and just crush all 3 opponents in our path. I am hoping since we are the best overall team we will rise up and play our best ball and just destroy everyone.
I don't really have a point to this post, it's just expressing my feelings as we enter the home stretch. Wondering how others are feeling as well. I am so incredibly happy with this team but I am also really, really nervous about the playoff run for the reasons stated above.
