If you wanted staturs to define the true legacy of that team, Kam doing the hammer would be iconic, as would Beast Quake.
If you wanted to pick a play that defined that Super Bowl era of Seahawks, I can think of no more iconic play than "The Tip." It has all the elements of our biggest rivalry, the trip to our first Lombardi, and a player who largely defined the defense at the time, in the eyes of the casual fan and the larger NFL fan base.
There isn't an iconic play in the next game. Those of us who were passionate about the Seahawks will remember Kam blowing up Thomas, Harvin's KO return that iced the game, or maybe Smith's pick 6. But, for most fans, I expect the defining play that comes to mind on XLVIII, is the first snap sailing past Manning's head for the safety. It encapsulates that game perfectly. And no way does that statue work.
So, yes. I'm in fan of the tip being made. It's an homage to a defense that gave us our Lombardi. Sherman representing our LOB, which was the focal point of our rivalry with the Niners. Plus it's kind of a middle finger to thr legacy of one Russell Wilson. I kind of like it.
It would also be great to have a statue of Crabtree slapping Sherman in the face for being a bit of a Richard. LOL.
