Has the hype train made it's way back around to our station? Have we been out of the spotlight (thanks to ARI and CAR) so long that we are being "discovered" by the national media as a quality team again? Here's hoping.

Our team performs better when we're ignored and overlooked

2 of the season preview mags that I've grabbed have the Hawks winning the NFC and losing in the Super Bowl to Pats/Steelers.

I don't think we were ever ignored.

The hype surrounding our team has down. When talking about potential SB winners the Seahawks aren't mentioned often and the majority of people even think the Cards will win the division ahead of us again.

However, we're still seen as a lock for play-offs by most so I wouldn't say big time underrated either.

We have one of the best QBs in the league throwing to last year's TD leader and a returning star TE, don't forget we'll be getting our league leading RB back as well. That's a dangerous offense for anyone, pair that with a top 2 defense and a top 5 ST and we will be a contender however you look at it.

Vegas has us and NE as the odds-on favorites to play in the Super Bowl. http://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/futures/

Nope, the Stealers and Eagles are merging and they're going to be called the Steagles.

That's the only way they're beating us next year.

I'm trying to reign my optimism in. I'm getting 2013 vibes but better. The problem is, Arizona has made really good moves in the off season as well, and there's no reason to think they'll fall off at all. If our OL causes us to stumble out of the gate like last year, we'll be chasing them the entire year for the division, and probably lose it by a game as well. Keep in mind, they get some favorable schedule changes that we don't, namely getting to play the Patriots without Tom Brady.
