I don't think we can ever appreciate enough just how great this team is.

Relevant: Seahawks finished #1 in Weighted Offense and #3 in Weighted Defense. Just insane how far this team has come from the beginning of the year.
Also, we ran away with the overall ranking:

I like this tidbit:
"In fact, if the Seahawks win in Minnesota this week, the winner of the Seattle-Carolina divisional-round game goes on to win the Super Bowl 42.1 percent of the time."
So all we gotta do is beat Minny and the Panthers.

I really like that Seattle, if they beat MINNY, will face Carolina in the divisional round. Home teams do very well in the Conference Championship games, but are shockingly vulnerable in the Divisional round coming off their bye.

True. But odds are that they'll spend the entire two weeks preparing for us.

They have to prepare for Seattle, GB, and Washington. Very likely rooting for Minnesota but in their hearts they know we will be coming for them. It could be any one of them. All the while we could have some coaches as assistants starting to prepare for Carolina as they are our only possible opponent.

Probably, but almost to a team, teams that have first round byes come out flat in the divisional round which makes them vulnerable to the upset. Now in our case, Seattle was a good enough team especially at home, that it didn't matter (although the Seahawks were no exception to the rule about coming out of the bye flat). This is true of a lot of other teams as well (notably the Patriots). It's not as true generally and I doubt it will true for the Panthers.
Remember just two years ago (IIRC) the Panthers had the number two seed and came out as flat as a pancake against the 49ners that got beat up at Green Bay.
