Shoot - why didn't I think of this before. I am going to start publishing my own power rankings. I have some salt. A bit of "experience" as they say. Look for me to build a website in the coming days - I will SEO optimize the foshizzle out of it and we can get some damn respect. My only pledge: unbiased viewpoint. If we are x, I won't say we're y.

Wow, I'd really like to simultaneously punch and choke this guy....

I'm sorry, you physically dominate the Cowboys, defeating them 27-7, and somehow that's "ekeing out a win"?

Sheesh.

Read comments section. The entire nation agrees that Graziano is an idiot. Also seeing people from all over country giving Seattle love is refreshing

We're not the only ones who want the analysts to choke. I think a lot of people are sick of the nonsense, but we're all susceptible to reading and enjoying writers who bring out the ire and outrage.

In his defense, we really did eke out a win against the Panthers at home. And the Cowboys beat us soundly down in Dallas. At least that's what I heard on ESPN.

Didn't we go down and beat Carolina in their house? That was supposed to be a dynamic offense. Obviously we have a lot to prove on the road, but I'll tell you what winning in your house sure beats losing in your house.


Regarding Carolina.. they're 1-4 for a reason - they're not any good. So yeah it's obviously better to beat a bad team on the road than lose to them, but it's not like they went into Candlestick and dominated a contender.

Not yet anyway :mrgreen:

I totally get that (that's why I said the offense was supposed to be dynamic, their team isn't that good), but it was a road win. I don't mind you pointing it out, either, but a road win is a road win, in my book. .

If you can do your work at home and win 7 or 8 it decreases the pressure of having to win 6 or 7 on the road. Really, we have a shot at going 8-0 at home or 7-1 this year, a shot. That makes us only having to win about 3 road games to make the playoffs. We already won one and we have the Niners, Lions, Dolphins, Bears, and Bills. If we can win at least two more of those I like our chances and it makes these Power Rankings irrelevant.

Cool thing about a great defense is you can win any game. Bad thing about a great defense and a poor offense is you can also lose any game. If the offense continues to develop, we've got a great shot. Sorry, rambling now cause I'm drinkin' the kool-aid!! :179422:

I think it's kinda funny how people try to talk about our ability to win at home almost like it's some kind of bad thing. Are you kidding me? If the Packers or the Steelers were undefeated at home it would add to their legend and the pundits would all be in awe, but since it's the lowly Seahawks, it's all acoustics and tricks. If it's all about accoustics, how come the 9 teams with actual enclosed dome stadiums don't rock it out loud like we do then? Are they not cheating too? Clowns... It rains in Seattle, so they gave us a little roof. That's it. Maybe it helps with the sound a bit, but it's also one of the smallest stadiums in the league capacity wise so what about that? It's not like the roof covers every seat in the stadiaum, and the giant holes on the north side probably lets some sound out too, so what about that!? Idjits.

Their disrespect makes me laugh. Then it makes be want to smack a sucka!

When you have played one of the very toughest schedules in the league and sport a 4-2 record, you should be at least in the top 10. To put that team at #16 is beyond bias- that's just idiocy.
