We win, and have the NFC division game next week, can't be riding "too" high into that game. FEELING GOOD, not OVER CONFIDENT.

This is ONLY the "first" playoff game, good to be aware, cautiously confident. But that's all. GET THE JOB DONE.

Not a good plan to spank the Saints tomorrow. Just win and that's all!

No, no, no, no, no. Spankings are good.

Naw, just blow em out. Show the NFL who the alpha dog is, and let em stew in it.

Only in Seattle is there such thing as a bad win or winning by too much.

spankings are for kids... I say whip their ass right on the front porch with their mom watching. Then let whoever is coming to play for NFC championship game let that mess with their minds.

actually I just want a good game, but I always wanted to say that part about the front porch

There is never ever anything wrong with a good beat down.

Who knows. Maybe we go on a three game offensive run like last season, member? 58, 50, and 42.

Trust me....Pete will not allow his team to embarrass the Saints. We may be playing "second stringers" in the 4th quarter.

Remember 2012: 42-13 vs. SF happened right after consecutive blowouts over AZ and BUF.

Couldn't disagree more.

If it happens, it happens, but it wouldn't at all be a bad thing.
Look, we are going to be FIRED UP if (more likely, when) we play in the conference championship game, especially if it's SF comin' to town (though I think Carolina wins).

Saturday is the beginning of the demolition of the rest of the NFL, full throttle all the way.

GO HAWKS!!!

Too many of these nutty negative posts. Really if the hawks are playing in the championship game there will be no let downs. Seattle would not have lost any games this year if it was not for 85 plus yards of penalties in each of those games.

Only thing the hawks have to fear is being screwed over by the zebras. Reason the Carolina game was close is because of a 100 yards in penalties against us.

Yeah to say you'd rather a close game tomorrow over a blowout is really overthinking it. In 2009 during our Super Bowl run, we came out of the bye and won 45-14 in the divisional round. Clicking on all cylinders is a great sign that your team has no rust from the bye and is ready to face playoff competition.

Of course, I hope its not a blowout, but if it is, y'all need to relax and enjoy the success, trust me.

Once we go 1-0 this week, the team will have one thing on their mind: going 1-0 next week.

This team is built on swagger, confidence, and raw competitiveness. It's who they are, and they carry it into every game.

I doubt this team will be riding "too high" regardless of the path to victory.

blowout, squeaker, whatever. JUST DONT LET THE RIDE END YET!
