Next week predicitons? I say both NFC teams win on the road in tight games, and both AFC teams win comfortably at home.
Texans @ Patriots
Ravens @ Broncos
Packers @ 49ers
Seahawks @ Falcons
There was one--the bears. we beat the bears, and I'm pretty sure the tie would go to us because they compare wins against like opponents, etc. so the hawks would have gotten the wild card regardless.
and-- it wasn't a "gift" the play was a close call on the field and was not reviewable. Maybe the ref shouldn't have thrown his hands up for a touchdown so that it could actually be reviewed first, but he didn't. I can't see anything about the play that definitively makes it NOT a simultaneous catch. I'm not saying it was a definitive catch by Tate, just that it was simultaneous, and simultaneous goes to the offense. Anyone who is not a seahawks fan or who is a packers fan disagrees, but such is a the game. I honestly looked at the replay 1 million times.
I didn't know I was comparing and contrasting against the chiefs but seeing your icon I guess that's what this is about? I named a lot more than 5 players, my only point was that if you watched the Seahawks you wouldn't think they were a lucky team, you'd acknowledge how many good players they have. How many years in a row has Seattle had a leading defense? Anyway, I guess I just don't understand what you meant when you said "fluke"-- I thought you meant they were lucky.
so they were a fluke getting into the playoffs? they were a fluke to win against the redskins? If they win against the falcons will they still be a fluke? What about winning the NFC, still? what if they take the superbowl, are they still a fluke? What if they have a great season next year and continue their success? Just not sure what part you consider a fluke and where the line is drawn when you'll give them credit. Your posts don't have any insight or explanation.
i see. then i guess the seahawks/redskins matchup was lucky from the start, because everyone knew rg3 was hurt going into that game. fuck that field for being in such poor condition. I also can't believe that rg3 and his coaches decided he should keep playing. why take the risk of destroying your whole career over this season? he has such potential for greatness- let the sprain heal IMO. As far as i know they are still waiting on the results of that fall he took in the fourth quarter?
Chris Clemons tore his ACL on that shitty field- so it isn't all luck for the hawks :(
