So I've been thinking about this since yesterday and figured it might be fun to check the pulse of dot Net when it comes to my pondering.
Yes, I know I'm getting a bit ahead of myself, and yes I know 1-0 every week. But that's stuff the team needs to be focused on. IMO, we as fans get to look ahead and speculate and that's what this is......speculation.
For me, it's Dullass. I think Green Bay is soft and our Hawks eat soft teams for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I think Arizona has too much to overcome at the QB position. I believe the Eagles don't get in and I believe the NFC South winner is crap no matter who it is. That leaves the Lions and the Cowpatties. I do think Detroit is a very good team and I almost picked them. Their D is for real and Stafford seems to have mostly figured out that interceptions hurt a team. However, they don't run the ball well and that usually bites teams in the rear end in January.
Dullass has a number of factors going for them that will make a game against them a tough one IMO. Their weakest area, that defense, is matched against our team's weakest area, our offense. On offense, they pass block very well and run the ball very well. They are also 7-0 on the road this year so if the game is indeed in Seattle they have that going or them as well. Maybe most importantly, they already know they can win at the C-Link.
To beat them, I think the Hawks need to dominate time of possession and find ways to make Romo nervous. Once he's nervous, he screws up and in order to make that happen the Hawks need to really slow down their run gam and make them work a lot from third and long. Pretty basic stuff, but its the formula Seattle has used to win a lot the last couple of years.
