Agree with Fade, with the exception of Richard, which is debatable.
Richard wouldn't be my ideal choice either. It's just that he actually isn't afraid to play man defense, and he has much better blitz packages. The DBs also need coaching up. > Norton.

As to me not doing weekly post game write ups anymore, there is no point. It is the same thing every week. The team comes out flat and unprepared. They dig a hole. Wilson then proceeds with his heroics, most of the time they win. But this flawed process won't fly in the playoffs. Also I could copy and paste the same few paragraphs from game to game, and it would be a struggle to tell which game I am talking about.
@ The apologists
The talk about injuries makes me laugh. The entire starting defense was on the field for this game, save for Kendricks.
Offensively, they only really missed Carson. Who would not have done anything. See the Dallas playoff game last year. Running head on into loaded boxes, stubbornly and predictably for an entire half in the playoffs? These are the results you get. The playoff opponent plays offense for 4 quarters, and scheme for the opponent. The Seahawks rollou the same plan, they fall flat on their face. Then Pete finally puts the ball in Wilson's hands after it's too late. That is too hard to overcome against playoff competition.
112-13 going back to 2012. LOB era and all. It's not a personnel issue. It's a coaching philosophy, and scheme issue.

GrEaT CoAcHiNg.
Seattle can kiss the playoffs goodbye next year if Pete rolls out the same song and dance.
It is alarming how over matched Pete is in divisional play. McVay, Shanny, and even Kingsbury are going to run circles around him next year, if Pete doesn't make some changes to his staff on defense. And just do the obvious, involve Wilson in the gameplan to start the game. Don't wait until you're down 14 points before you put the ball in his hands.
A Legatron missed 40 yd FG away from missing the playoffs entirely this year, btw.
