Seattle went into the Atlanta stadium early last year and put them in check so badly that for the rest of the season they never fully recovered. Seattle doesn't win EVERY game. BUT frequently when they win they snatch the will to compete right out of the hearts of their opponent and so it was last year in Atlanta.
I find it amusing that Seattle's detractors take such glee that they would fall under any circumstances. OK.. The Hawks MUST prove again that if they happen to stumble they must stand upright and show why they made it to MetLife last season, a mere 7 months ago, and absolutely crushed the Broncos, The most dominating offense in NFL history allowing only 8 meaninless late game points to the Seahawks 43.
I'm totally good with the doubters rising behind the feeble legs and arm of Peyton Manning growing less sure every day he wakes up and discovers that he is much closer to his last appearance in a proffessional football uniform than his first.
There was a time when the great Peyton Manning's abilities drew awe from all that opposed him on the field. This is now and THAT was then. This on Sunday is Century Link Field and not the Bronco's Mile High recluse where they have a biological advantage which takes weeks to acclimate to. I have lived in Boulder. This is Seattle where resides the NFL's winningest home field advantage. It is not an advantage like Denver's ...measurable at over 5,000 feet above sea level where the air is thin and no ammount of practice can duplicate the built in advantage.
OUR advantage is our fans. As it should be. The conditions are equal to all that enter as are it's home team's. What Seattle's home gives to our Hawks is more encouragement when things get tough and more screaming for blood when the route is on.
Ya...Atlanta's runaway score was impressive...we had three in a row like it year before last ..one of them in Toronto on the road with a rookie QB.
Fox's con job aimed at his team's confidence will backfire horribly when reality closes in and the sound level becomes an unbearable drone washing reason and the will to win right out of the Broncos. They will begin to hate the lie that Fox betrayed them with.
Indeed that is true on how the donkeys have such a huge homefield advantage up there in denver where it takes your body weeks to acclimate to because of that mile high thin air 5,000 feet above sea level.
Thats why its so laughable that trolls like that NON truth seeker guy act like seattle lost to a crappy team or something last week when i bring up those facts how denver is about the toughest place for visting teams to win at because of that factor.
notice how EVERYTIME i bring up the fact that the chargers were the only team to go up to denver last year and beat the donkeys in their own backyard,a team that had the highest scoring offense in NFL history,that they always run off from that thread or if they come back to it,they change the subject?
they keep acting like the seahawks lost to that charger team from the mid 90's that went 1 and 15 and ryan leaf was the quaterback.
never considering that its equally as tough for a team like the seahawks who are not used to hot conditions like san diego had,to come in and play as well as they normally would especially in dark uniforms in the sun.
I dont think any of these people have ever been to colorado since they dont understand how it is so difficult on the body for people that dont live there who come in from out of town for a visit and i dont think they have ever done any exerting activity outdoors before with dark clothing on and then done the same exerting activity in whites before because they clearly dont understand WHY the chargers wore whites last sunday.
as i stated previously,I have relatives who live in arizona and i have been out there for MONTHS at times over the years.anybody who has been out there knows what I am talking about how its a desert out there and the heat is so bad that if the air condition breaks down,its murder out there.
i mention that because having lived out there for long periods of time over the years I experienced first hand how its much harder to do an exerting activity outdoors in heat like that in dark clothing out there than it is when you are wearing white.again these people here seem clueless to the reason WHY the chargers wore white in that game.
He is trying to convince them everything will be okay and it wont be a problem so they wont get scared.
