I'm very new to these forums, just started posting. I've been lurking on and off for a few years.
I am noticing A LOT of topics about the seahawks and the SB, playing the patriots, where to watch the SB...etc
We really need to step back and take it one game at a time (just like our boys). We need to be cautious, a lot can happen on Sunday. I'm not saying we might lose, I have all the confidence in the world that we can be NFC champs again.
But let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, enjoy the NFC game, and if all goes according to plan,then we can talk SB.
Sigh.. why do fans do this
We can prognosticate the 2045 season if we'd like. Nothing we say will impact the game on Sunday. Be as optimistic, arrogant, afraid, superstitious etc as you like.
Literally nothing you say, do, wear, think - matters. We do not play the game.

We are mostly talking about the 2022/2023 Super Bowl. We finished talking about XLIX months ago.

This is too funny.

My OP was not necessarily superstition, but more about fans getting too far ahead of themselves to enjoy the game in front of them now. We won last year and that can never be taken away from us. But something about this season seems like we have even more to prove than last year. We are not just a flash in the pan, we are the real deal.
Anyways...my experience in getting to far ahead of ourselves come from the 2011 NHL playoffs. Vancouver was the best team in the regular season, after a small hiccup in the first round we rolled right into a 2-0 series lead in the finals. All the talk around town, and even the media was "where will parade route be?", "who is the playoff mvp going to be?", even so far as "they meant to lose game 3 so they can win the cup at home". All these expectations had us looking past the rest of the series. The expectation was how are we going to win not if we are going to win. By the time Boston steamrolled us the rest of the series, we as fans didn't know what hit us, we didn't enjoy the ride.
I'm just saying that I think the disappointment was greater due to the high expectations we had put out there of expecting the win to happen, rather than hoping the win will happen. I think that's why canuck fans have a reputation of being cocky whiners
12's on the other hand have the reputation of being the best damn sports fans in the entire world, and that's why I probably won't sleep for the next three nights, because I can't wait to get down there and cheer on our team.

Sorry guys--this one's on me.
