49ers, Patriots, Ravens, Saints, Seahawks. All 10-2. When was the last time that happened going into week 14? Usually, at least one team has separated from the pack, record-wise. But the #1 seed is solidly in play for both conferences, and the Bills and Packers are both only one game back. Just crazy.

I think the league is unusually top heavy this year with multiple teams with outstanding records at this point in the season. Usually you would have 2 teams like this. But not as many as this year. It is quite rare but interesting to see.

I do like how pundits are so quick to be obvious on who the best team is. Some show last night/this morning was still talking as if the 9ers are the best team in the NFC. I'm, hello. 5 seed.

Ya 5 seed with a 10-2 record. I'm hello Hawks are 2 seed with a 10-2 record. So your point? Bottom line there is no clear cut NFC best team. There are a few really damn good ones.

The point is, and it should be obvious, this is SEAHAWKS .net.
We are biased “up in here”.
You can’t/shouldn’t expect it to be any other way.

LOL. Seriously, though, odds are high it's gonna be a push in Week 17 that'll probably come down to the kicker.

I'd be extremely surprised, after Monday, to see Chase McLaughlin released between now and then.

Man our kicking situation is in bad shape and to lose 2 games by a field goal SUCKS. I think Gould is failing on purpose, this way we cut him and he goes back to Chicago with cash. Arsehole

Unfortunately the Hawks gave the Saints that game otherwise they are #1. 4 games left to decide it, it's wide open.

1 or 2 for the Hawks is pretty good. It's not like your road record sucks!

uh, no. :D

Honestly early on there were a ton of snapper adn holder issues and on Sunday the kick was tipped.

I think its much hubbub over nothing.

Yeah, its gonna come down to the wire.

Niners could conceivably have head to head tie breakers and a better record than the 1 and 3 seeds but be a 5 seed. Sigh.

Uh, it's impossible for a team to have a better record than the #1 seed and be a #5 seed.

I hope so. I'm just remembering a shanked field goal and a short field goal that gave us 2 loses. Not including the missed ones earlier in the season.

Both of our losses had heavy doses of us assisting the other guys. :229031_shrug:

Good point. The number one seed though gives you HFA. While it’s not automatic, every time Seattle has had the number one seed they’ve gone to the Super Bowl, all 3 times.

Right now out of the five teams the Seahawks have the hardest strength of schedule. Should be interesting to see how that holds by the end of the year.

What's really weird is I would have assumed that the Seahawks would have the worst strength of victory, but the 49ers and Patriots are worse.

Records at this point only determine seeding in post season . Once that is determined and the playoffs begin ; those records are inconsequential ; because it's a like a " new season " but with a loser elimination platform . I love the " sudden death " atmosphere of the playoffs . :0190l:
