    Team That Scares Me Most

    (That said, I can't agree with the part about Arizona beating them. The Fighting Lindleys will beat nobody ever.)

    Team That Scares Me Most

    People just get really convinced by whatever is the huge blowout that they saw most recently.

    Predictionmachine says SB comes down to...

    If Dallas holds serve on Sunday, my guess is that we're about a 12-point favorite in the divisional round for a win expectation of roughly 90%. If we have to play Detroit then probably more like 80%. I do think that 70-75% is probably about right for an NFCCG in Seattle, but the Super Bowl...

    Predictionmachine says SB comes down to...

    Those aren't scores, by the way. Those are projected percentages right now of making it through each round.

    Predictionmachine says SB comes down to...

    I don't either. I can see them losing to Pittsburgh pretty easily.

    Norwood - Potential T.O.?

    Never, ever give in to the terrorists who would respond with this.

    Norwood - Potential T.O.?

    I see him as more of a Calvin Johnson/Randy Moss/Jerry Rice hybrid, except better. Championship!

    Russell Wilson gets his 40th win.

    Definitely the only metric that matters. Without that one, we wouldn't know that Trent Dilfer was better than Dan Marino.

    Opponent Audio Recap - Week 17, Rams Edition

    That doesn't generally stop commentators from spending a bunch of energy calling for the Seahawk secondary to get called for DPI and holding all game long if we're not already being called.

    Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics

    The SB hangover thing is kind of a misleading stat in terms of predictive value, because it doesn't account for the fact that the champion usually isn't the best team in football that year and thus certainly shouldn't be expected to repeat. I would say that it may be more useful just to look at...

    Seahawks Should Only Be Allowed To Draft From The NW Region

    Seems really unlikely to be a serious comment. I'd like to believe, but I can't.

    Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics

    Obviously some stats are more meaningful than others. I mean...you included him setting a career "best" in attempts as part of an argument for being his best season. That's not even an inherently positive stat. And obviously if that's at its highest level, completions and yards will follow. All...

    Opponent Audio Recap - Week 17, Rams Edition

    Rams commentators always provide some of the best opponent recaps of the season. There's less bitching about officiating than usual in this edition though.

    Falcons, Jets, and 49ers all interested in Quinn

    Umm, I guess I don't know how you know this. We know the histories of most successful coordinators who wind up being successful head coaches well enough that we know what jobs they actually turned down along the way? (I assume that turning down underwhelming HC opportunities is what you mean by...

    Jets to interview Trent Kirchner & Tom Cable along with DQ

    Well they're interviewing with them, which indicates that there's some level of interest. I doubt they've already queued up a "thanks, but no thanks" if the team offers them the job.

    Falcons, Jets, and 49ers all interested in Quinn

    Even more enticing when framed this way. Get that money while you can, even if only for a short while. Successful coordinators who fail as head coaches don't just lose all marketability as a coordinator/assistant coach in the league.

    Seahawks' 2015 schedule

    Because they keep finishing in the same place in their division as we do in ours.

    TE future

    Why do people keep calling Willson a rookie?

    ESPN Seahawks only allow 39 points in last 6 games

    Yep. It's silly that some expect the media to never hedge or have any counterpoint, and to only heap worship on the Seahawks. We get tons of credit, and everyone in the media knows that this Seahawks team is great. If they just leave it at "they're awesome. Umm, next," then people would gripe...
