    Hello Hawks fans, your help is requested.

    Eagles fan here too, but married a Seattle native who was in high school when the franchise arrived in 1976. She still tells the story of Jim Zorn and Steven Largent visiting her health class. We've been together 17 years, Seattle has been mediocre to bad for most (but not all) of them, and...

    A Very Good Sign for the Seahawks

    The polling response reminds me of SB XXV. Buffalo crushes the Raiders 51-3 in the AFC Championship game, while the Vagiants beat the Horny-Whiners a mere 15-13, squeaking out a victory without scoring a touchdown. Buffalo entered the game a 7-point favorite, but public opinion expected an...

    A heartfelt letter from Steeler Nation

    For me, it wasn't just the bad flags in XL*. A great team overcomes bad calls. The Seahawks team we have now is a great team (as Sunday attested) and would have played through the bad calls. The 2005 team could not. I didn't really think a fix was in until the commercials. Every set of...

    Jermaine Kearse NFFC winning catch - why no...

    It looked like his go-ahead touchdown catch from the NFCCC a year ago.

    Adam Schein gives Seahawks "A Ton" of Credit for the WIn

    I would bet if you put at least 20-25 of the other NFL teams out there in the same position as teh Hawks were with five minutes left in the third quarter (let alone the fourth), they fold like wet tissue. I've watched games where I am totally neutral, and Ive seen each team get lucky bounces...

    Watched TV replay again...

    I have a book with Zen anecdotes and this is one of them: It is my belief that the Hawks simply had a very strong intention to win. I'm not saying the Packers didn't want to win, but I don't think that team's INTENTION was as strong as Seattle's was. I think the sheer strength of will in the...

    Is what we wore on Sunday good luck or bad luck?

    This is an example of magical thinking. Not rational, but don't worry. I do it too. I don't wear Seahawks gear during games because they lose when I do. When I take the gear off, they seem to play better.,

    Green Bay gave the game away?? Phhhhht

    The game was lost by the Packers because when the Seahawks got their business together, the Pack wasn't composed enough to respond. There were key Pack mistakes that lost the game for them, but these are mistakes made by a team that is pressing too hard. I think the Seahawks made that happen...

    This guy

    "Tom Brady will embarrass the Seahawks, and that's NOT EVEN A FACT!" Brilliant. Just brilliant.

    Game Nickname

    I actually love the Improbabowl. Discount Double Choke is hilarious but not the kind of think you'll hear in an NFL Films Highlight video.

    Kearse and Willson source of Wilson's woes yesterday

    Clay Matthews' flag was for a nasty hit on Russell. I think the call was "blind side block" after one of RW's INTs, but the announcers said it should have been helmet-to-helmet. Russell's head got snapped around pretty violently. Terrifying on the replay.

    Biggest mismatch in Super Bowl according to DVOA

    Actually, stats mean very little. My friend in Boston says the Pats will win. He says they will win because he's been "watching this team all season" and he "sees how dominant they are." You heard it right there, Hawks fans. No repeat for us.

    It's official!!!!!

    I think his case is that some of those games were not as dominant, such as Carolina and St. Louis. To be expected, actually. It's tough for even the best teams to beat someone at the same level on the road as they did at home. Conversely, however, Seattle punked AZ on the road but struggled at...
