And yet in multiple responses you have mentioned "the zebras" as part of the reason Seattle won the last round.
You may want to keep your narrative straight.
As far as "we will see" regarding the records, no. There is nothing to see.
The records are fact. Teams are what their record says they are. The records say these two teams are equals.
You can keep fooling yourself, or just man up to the fact that you are overcompensating because you are nervous.
Not anymore nervous than you appear to be.
You wanna know what I'd be nervous about? A game at the Clink. But it's not... which will have me sleeping a lot better tonight.
As for the zebras, it's well known to every non-Seattle NFL fan that the 'Hawks seem to get the benefit of the officials at the Clink. I don't really need to bring up the situations... ya'll know what I'm talking about dating back to 2012.
Still, we'd have won regardless if Earl doesn't make that pick in the 4th qtr. As said, I blame that more than anything else.
... and no... 11-5 vs 10-5-1 means that Atlanta is the better team... based on the "you are what you record says you are" that you just used. #2 seed > #3 seed.
Please don't try to cheese that to 11-5-1 by throwing in a win over a garbage Detroit team while Atlanta had a bye thanks to the Seahawks.
