We are all still trying to recover from the largest ass whoopin' we have taken at home in 20 years. Unfortunately the timing couldn't have been worse. The loss pretty much ends our hopes to win the division and host a playoff game. Ouch.
If I was to post this Fearless Prediction a couple of days ago, my butthurt self would talk about how the Seahawks don't stand a chance against the Cowboys, especially with them getting Zeke back. The team has folded up shop and ready for the offseason. Make plans Sunday that don't involve watching the game because it will be a waste of time and just put us all in a bad mood the day before Christmas.
But...
The Seahawks have NEVER been embarrassed like this before in the Pete Carroll Era. Russell Wilson is in jeopardy to miss the playoffs for the first time in his five year career. I have to believe these factors could most definitely tilt the seemingly inevitable outcome to something that resembles a competitive, dare I say, victory? We always talk about this team when their backs are against the wall...Well, this is truly playoff time. You lose any of these last two games and your playoff chances are done. There is true motivation here and I refuse to believe this team has quit.
Despite that embarrassing ass kicking last Sunday, I still won't count this team out as long as there is time left on the clock.
Sadly, I don't think it will be enough. While I think they will be much more competitive, and a victory would not shock me in the least, I'm afraid the playoff hopes end Sunday.
Aros' Fearless Prediction: Seahawks 23 - Cowboys 27
Aros' Fearless Record: 9-5
