I know this has been argued about a lot already, but I'm not saying that Percy won us the Superbowl. And, this isn't even my idea, but one I read in a comment from someone named John Spieker. I think it is worth repeating because it makes the Harvin thing a lot easier to swallow:
"As I recall (Danny and other insiders can confirm or deny this) one of the reasons the price to obtain Harvin from Minnesota was so high was there was another party bidding for Percy Harvin --the San Francisco 49ers.
Seattle got Harvin party so San Francisco would not.
Remember, no one at the time knew about Harvin's hip injury. Even if San Francisco only had Harvin for the NFC championship game we still win the game?
That alone would make the whole transaction ok in my book.
Why else would we be hot to add a 3rd slot receiver?"
