GREAT to see the running game come back to full force. CJ Prosise is coming back next week which we need all the offense we can get against the falcons.

Overall- no denying it, the better team won. End of story.

Go Hawks!

First TD Detoilet got robbed. But otherwise they stunk up the joint and played with no heart or urgency. I knew they'd lose but I predicted by 7 or 10 pts. Instead they played like shyt all game and Seattle's dominance finally showed on the scoreboard with roughly 8-9 mins left in the 4th.

Better team won no question. Detroit didn't even deserve to be in the postseason.

A lot of Hawks fans I talked to are originally from other cities and have the mentality that "you should support the team where you live." Talk about warped thinking. Basically reaffirmed already documented evidence that its a majority bandwagon fanbase.

Salty much?

Well, considering I've lived in LA now for close to 7 years- the last time the Seahawks were any good when I lived in Seattle was the 05 season- and those people you speak of- weren't around. As a kid in the 90s, they were terrible/mediocre at best

I'm a believer that you support your hometown- not the one you live. I refuse to root for a basketball team because I want my sonics back. Mariners are a headache, but it is what it is.

I don't consider "new fans" band wagon fans- because something needs to attract people to a team. You're not literally born into fandom. That's why I don't have a problem with those who latched on to the Hawks wagon post Russell Wilson. Just don't jump off of it and support Dallas next year if we lose to them, or Atlanta.

If it makes you feel better, I'm Glad you got to experience an awesome environment at the Clink-
from a life long, ride or die Hawks fan

few notes.

good win, although i'am still unsure which seattle team will show up next week.



i think playing atlanta before will help make adjustments, because they were torched last time IN seattle, with the controversial W. If seattle can run the ball, half as good as they did last night, we have a chance. They need to play keep away from matt ryan.

Losing ET will really be felt this upcoming week i believe, regardless of outcome of the game

Atlanta -3.5 49 o/u.

Not necessarily. You may not remember, but both losses combined for 4 points! Not exactly blow outs.
I believe that with the several players coming back healthy, along with the bye, and at home... Dallas will win against either team.
I can't see NY beating GB in GB with the roll they are on.

[finaloption]

we all know deep down you're scared of the Giants and that's why you're rooting for the Packers

the Giants may have a tough time beating GB today, but if they do, their Defense matches up really well against the Cowboys (can stop the run and hold Dallas WR's in check) plus the Giants WR's have an edge over the Cowboys secondary

advantage Giants

you better hope Packers win

[F30lolz]

What worries me about this game for the Giants is their running game and their offensive line. Dom Capers is a blitzing genius so if the Giants can somehow get a good ground attack going and if Eli can play like playoff Eli the Giants will win this game. Playoff Eli has thrown only 2 picks the past 10 playoff games I think and have won 5 straight road playoffs games, a NFL record. However, all that goes out the window as today is the game.

I'll be watching the Dolphins game but can't see them winning.

[finaloption]

Pittsburgh has too much fire power on offense. Miami has to keep up.. not sure they can.

Miami needs to get lucky on special teams or a big turnover on defense

[finaloption]

that escalated quickly

[F30lolz]

Miami has to score on this drive and hold off Pittsburgh because if it's 21-0 or something along those lines in the 1st, Miami will be looking to fly home.

[thebmwjunkiee]

I see Miami decided their defensive plan was to let Brown run free and unguarded for this game...

[DieGrüneHölle]

Well that frees up my morning, another boring game.

[finaloption]

yup.. now i have 2 hours to get some errands done before the real game starts

[kprocivic]

Got damn that last drive from Pittsburgh. Talk about getting smacked in the mouth.

[Mr.SugarSkulls]

Yawnnn

Poor Fins

[BMW F22]

Lmfao. Miami DESERVES to lose. What a shit show of a team. Just wow.

[M_Six]

Dolphins suck. And just when it looked hopeless, they did something really stupid and handed PIT a 1st down instead of a FG attempt.

End result, TD for PIT.

[Mr.SugarSkulls]

Can't wait for the dan lebatard show tomorrow when he goes in on them

[TXSTYLE]

Every Playoff game has sucked thus far! No game worth actually sitting and watching. We'll see if GB & NY can change this later....

It's a little tougher when you don't have your first string quarterback. Just like Oakland yesterday. Oakland had a shot at the Super Bowl and then they can't even get out of the first round of the playoffs. Missing your starter is significant.

I understand. I felt bad for Oakland as I'm in the Bay Area and was really rooting for them. Sad ending.

As for Miami, they shot themselves in the foot so many times. That one dude was being a smart ass trying to block the FG attempt and ended up giving Pittsburgh 7 points instead of 3. All the fumbles and missed interceptions sealed it for them.

As a life long gmen fan i wont even expose myself to the upcoming game with the way Eli has been playing. I just don't see him turning it around again. I have zero confidence in his ability to throw the football anymore.
