If it makes you feel any better, last year's nfccg shouldn't have happened. Even after the onsides, scoring was awesome. But that two point conversion by russ to Luke was crazy. Without it, Rodgers setting up that field goal was Atlanta all over again. So the statistical probability overall was miniscule, but we witnessed it.
Same with the Vikings. For obvious reasons. But we still witnessed an amazing finish.
So all in all we could have lost a nfccg at home and or got bounced in the wild card round this year, rather easily in either case, but instead we won the roll of the dice both times and it's been a cool era. Plus we have the most electric rookie in the nfl, someone i certainly wouldn't trade for Cooper. Wouldn't trade him for Megatron, Tate, jeesh. Let me think of who i WOULD trade him for. I can't think of anyone. Steal of the draft. Again, by Pete and JS.
Then there's rawls. Simply amazing. Going into an offseason with the starters. Getting that chemistry going.
Jimmy. Could have made the difference yesterday. Carolina had olsen, we didn't have our equivalent.
Stinks, flat out sucks, but the way the nfl is operated these days especially it takes a lot to continually make the playoffs and remain competitive. We've done it and we actually look brighter for next year and the immediate future than any other team.
Denver. QB situation. Want that?
New England. Age. They're on the clock with Tom. We're a full decade ahead of that era.
Arizona. Age. Fitz and Palmer. See new England above.
San Fran. Hahaha
Pittsburgh. Age. It takes a healthy qb to utilize those weapons. Ben has taken hits for a decade.
Carolina. Definitely gotta put them in their place next year. They have to pay Norman if they want him back, so that could potentially be seriously mis managed. Otherwise, it'll at least put a damper on their ability to fill other needs. But after next year their two great interior d lineman are ufa, so they will have plenty of management challenges in the future. But overall i see them as our threat because they are like us in terms of having the young guys locked up.
We need to draft to beat los Angeles and Carolina. We have to take back the division next year. Two losses a year to LA will sink us. It's a bright future and a great time to be a Seahawk.
