We can still and WILL make and WIN the Superbowl

[semiahmoo]

Did losing to Zona suck? Yes, yes it sucked alot.

But take a step back, we will beat SF and be a 10 win NFC West Champ. We can still get the 2 seed if Drew Brees beats Atl.

But even if they don't. Do you really think this team can't go into ATL and win a game? That's all that changed with the zona loss. We would have to beat ATL in ATL instead of Seattle. Thats all that changed.

This team still has a championship pedigree and stil WILL get it done!

Mark my words.

No team in the playoffs have the type of Dline that can make this team look bad. Only the Rams and Cards consistently make the Seahawks look bad. I like the hawks chances vs every team left in the playoff field.

Tampa Bay and Greenbay gave them fits. The Bucs probably won't get in but Greenbay will and they don't have a great d-line. The giants will probably be tough and the cowboys DE Irving would destroy Gilliam or Sowell. These playoff teams will look at tape and do everything they can to confuse and overwhelm the OL

GB did a pretty good job of making us look like the browns, so there is that.

If they decidedly win the first playoff game, I'll be rooting Superbowl. I'm not going to judge them on this next game, we tend to play down to crappy teams. Let's see if they can pull it together. The OL is not going to get better, so it will be on the OC to gameplay for that fact. He hasn't shown much ability to do that yet, but maybe everyone coming down on him will push him outside of his box.

I believe, because I'm actually fair to this team.

I see the Packers, Cowboys, Falcons, and a host of other teams give up points, commit turnovers, and struggle against teams like the Bears or Eagles. And no one craps on them saying they have no shot.

My quarterback played with no legs, a torn pec, and we had injuries throughout the year. Yet, we are in position for a number 2 seed. I call that depth

We have Prosise who could make it back. We have a big play offense that can put up 30 points and ALWAYS competes against quality opponents. We have a QB who has the most 4th quarter comebacks since being in the league. And I know that under a Pete Carroll/Wilson team, 99% of the time we'll be in striking distance to win the game. I know that we've made the playoffs for 5 years in a row

I expect sensible criticism and doubt, but the fact that the Hawks are being judged to such an extreme standard by some fans is really deflating. There was a time when 12s believed no matter what and propelled the team with steadfast belief. Idk where this new attitude has come from, must be the younger Hawks fans

This new attitude came from watching the games this season. There has been zero consistency

If I had a dollar for all the "mark my words" here I would be rich.

Not from me you wouldn't... if you spend the time to go through my posts.

This year I bowed my neck and got really pissy with negative posters during the 3 game Bills, Pats, Eagles stretch, I called out we'd go 3 and 0 and got laughed at. I then got even pissier with my I told you so's....

Then I did it again when we faced the rams at home during the eye sore game.

I'm now doing it again......

This,,, this times a million. This is what i'm talking about. People just don't understand that the NFL is really hard. We are in the the middle of a run every org not named NE would kill to be on. But we are not undefeated and that means some people are going to complain....

EDIT: Hell even if we were undefeated some people would still complain about the "prettiness of those wins"

 

[Ozzy]

Im with you OP I think this team is still capable of beating anyone and once it's a new start in the playoffs they have as good a shot as anyone.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

It's a brand new season in the playoffs. The best teams don't always win. You just have to be the best team THAT DAY. And seeing the O put up 28 (should have been even more) in the 2nd have vs. the Cards was a positive.
Also, their playoff experience is a huge plus imo.

Yup agreed. Time to put it together.

I stood up as I was reading this. :irishdrinkers:

All that's changed is now we play in round 1 instead of having a much much much needed bye week. We then go to a hostile place to play playing against an offense firing on all cylinders built to play in a Dome instead of having them come up here to play in the rainy northwest.

Yeah nothing much has changed!

We? What number are you? Is this sherm? Graham?

 

[Jimjones0384]

You all can throw in the towel if you want. It seems people forget how hard it is to win in this league. I can understand a player thinking anything less than a Superbowl is a failure. But a fan with that attitude, pathetic. You all think because you buy tickets and jerseys, you somehow own the team. Just because you buy your porn and lube at a store, doesn't mean you own the store. I have never seen a collection of fair weather fans in my life. It is pathetic.

 

[nash72]

What kind of fan is totally content with a first or second round playoff loss? That makes no sense at all. This team was a favorite to win the superbowl at the start of the season and anything other than that is a disappointment in my eyes. I cant go around singing ho-hum if we lose in the first round and patting people on the back harping how it was such a great season because it wouldnt be. So excuse everybody for being realistic and honest when they say that this team is playing like complete crap right now and the chances for a superbowl appearance are about nil.

And I'm saying that you are a whine ass. When they win, it's this is the greatest team in the world. The next week they lose, it's the season is over, this person needs fired and that person needs to be cut. The next week they stomp, and it is back to them being the greatest. It is that flip flop that makes you all a joke, bandwagon fan.

It's like if they don't win 16 shutout games, then the Superbowl, you all aren't pleased. You talk about we all the time. I guess I should thank you all for the hard work you put in day after day on the field for my entertainment.

So, in conclusion, you are ridiculous whine asses that need to get a clue. Only one team out of 32 wins it all. And being a good fan doesn't include being assholes about the team you watch struggling. There is so much more than we see that goes into this. You are disrespectful to sit there and so freely call for people's livelihood being taken from them. Especially when you don't have all of the info. Piss off.

Seriously though, I'm with you. I think we make it all the way to the SB,....and WIN IT!

Lol. The last time I thought this team might be pretty good was when they beat the Eagles. That disappeared quickly. Here's a quarter, buy a clue.
