Aros’ Fearless Divisional Round Prediction Thread (vs 49ers)

[DeSeahawk]

I'll also take 21-12

" We are the priests of the temples of Syrinx! " Geddy Lee approves your prediction.

 

[HawaiiD]

30-17 hawks

Seattle 35
Niners 10

I heard this today. Kyle Shanahan is 7-0 in Wild Card and Divisional Round playoff games, making him the HC to win the most games in these rounds without a loss.

Well let's put an end to that.

I think we win and cover the spread. I don't think they can disrupt Sam enough for that to become a problem for us. Keep our mistakes to a minimum and let our talent and being the healthier and better all round team prevail.

 

[Hawkerson]

24-17 Seattle.

 

[samwize77]

Mind the basics = no turnovers, no drive killing penalties, no dropped balls, no MISSED FG's and no missed tackles.
I don't think they can beat us unless we help by beating ourselves first.
Hawks 27
SC 13

I have no score.

But…

We’re gunna phucking win, and win in a dominating fashion

 

[Gametime]

Not sure how many folks in here watch the UFC or combat sports but I think this will feel like a championship fight. Usually when a champion is defending their belt they start the fight very poised and calm and the contender comes out a bit more aggressive cause they have nothing to lose. As the fight goes on the champ gets a feel for the range, the pace, the tactical approach, and the stamina of his opponent and by round 3 of a 5 round fight it's game on and full attack. There are exceptions but it's common.

I think this game "may" look like that.

Based on Mike Mac's interviews they like to get a "feel" for the game. They don't put all their eggs in one strategical basket and that's one thing I love about the coaching. They focus on their OWN game from a fundamental standpoint and then start collecting data once the game starts. How are they being attacked? How are they are being defended? What changes has the coaching staff made since week 18 and how does the new personnel affect the strategy?

I think the 1st quarter is a bit slow and the Hawks may not have a big lead but they will be studying. SF has absolutely nothing to lose so they may come out swinging and they may land a few punches. The Hawks, however, will stay calm, take in the data, and go to work. They KNOW they need to limit mistakes and turnovers and I think it may result in a bit of a slow start. The worst thing the better fighter can do is fight emotionally and get caught slipping by a hungry opponent.

I think it's something like 13-10 at half either way and a 27-17 final score in favor of the Hawks. I think the Hawks wear them down and as the Niners start feeling like week 18 wasn't a fluke they will have trouble keeping up in my opinion. The emotion and fight in them will fade as the war rages on. Short rest and all the travel will absolutely take a toll on them in the 2nd half. It's just being human.

If the Hawks play mistake free or close to it they win. Hawks have the better team and are healthier and more rested plain and simple.

Its gonna be a bloodbath in Seattle tomorrow.

Hawks 35

Hawks will be amped up, and at home. No one really knows how Sammy D and Charles Cross are doing. They wouldn’t miss this game. The defense needs to concentrate and drop the hammer.

Run, baby, run! Let’s shoot for 200 yards rushing, that’s the recipe and the way to break their backs. We have to be ready for a trick play, that’s something Shanny will try again. Let’s throat punch those MFs. Would love a couple turnovers by our defense.

Hawks………26
San Fran….17

 

[BirdHunter7]

I am delusional and disrespectful

 

[hox]

Delusion and disrespect...love to see it

Why should there be any respect? You needed a trick play to beat a BAD Eagles team that had no offense.

You got curb stomped just two weeks ago.

I did my part. There will be no turds on the field of play.

 

[jman316]

I was just watching some highlight of the ‘85 Bears divisional game against the Rams and I’d like to propose we shut out the 9ers tonight.

24-0

Wouldn’t it be sweet?

 

[jman316]

24-10. slow first half on both sides and one major 9ner turn over in their end starts the on slot

That’s the score I had originally.

Sounds like that record is due for some statistical correction… our defense is just too good.

 

[OlyHawk]

Darnold's reported injury gives me a slight concern. I believe Drew Lock could even game manage to a win with our Dark Side Defense.
Close early, suffocate the 49ers late. I expect a Defensive score or we win by 3.
Seahawks 23, 49ers 13
