Unlike the announcers from last night,I'm STILL not all that impressed with the seahawks. they were talking all last night about how their offense has gotten things together now.
Oh please,get real,give me a break.this is the first blowout they have had against a team since they beat the Giants who have a washed up quarterback that has been playing for them.how does blowing out a team down to a third stringer count as the offense now playing well?please.
thats what i said would happen. a third string quarterback,you are going to have lots of three and outs so the defense is eventually going to get tired like it did.
see I am still not impressed with the seahawks unlike they are because while their defense has finally gotten their act together in the second half,the offense has done jack squat against a team with a top notch quarterback.
Let just take a look at their last 9 games they have had where they won 8 of them and who the opponents were and who they quarterbacks are they faced.
1.The chokeland faiders. they BARELY beat them. at home no less.big deal.who hasnt beat that team?.good thing they scored touchdowns in that game because their defense almost gave it away in the end against a ROOKIE QB no less .an embarrassing win for them.
2.The Giants.a team in shambles with a washed up has been quarterback,big deal.
3.they lost this game so we wont discuss it..
4.cards at home.an unimpressive 19-13 win against a backup QB.
5.san fran on the road.another unimpressive 19-13 win against a Qb that has meltdowns.big wow.
6.The Eagles.a 24-14 win,a win against another washed up has been quarterback,big deal.
7.san fran again.a measely 17 points and coming again against a QB that may not even be there next year.
8.cards again.their first blowout since the Giants game comes againsta third stringer because the defense was on the filed all day because of so many three and outs by the offense having to work with a third stringer.
Next week they will be facing another crappy team with ANOTHER washed up quarterback so they again will win against another unimpressive quarterback. so scoring a bunch of points against them will not be impressive either.
I am not sold they will win the superbowl this year because you have to assume they will be playing the cowboys for the NFC title.
The cowboys have not gone into their usual meltdown at the end of the year like everybody was expecting them to and Romo caused them problems last time.they have proved they can beat them at the clink so it wont be easy.
and if they make it past the cowboys,then you know they will have to face the patriots in the superbowl and unlike last year,this game i dont see easy for them.The patriots are much better this year on defense and with a healthy gronkowski,he makes a big difference for them on offense.
If he stays healthy come superbowl time,they could struggle to win this game.the partriots match up well with them physically with a shut down corner in revis and a healthy wolford on defense as well not to mention that Tom Brady doesnt panic and get scared in big games no matter how bad the situation looks.
when they have to face Romo and Brady,if their offense doesnt perform the same way they did yesterday against the cardinals,its going to be very difficult for them to win the superbowl. agreed Huggy?
