Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
Marshawn Lynch put the team on his back, doe! So much determination! (I won't link to the YouTube video as it is NSFW and not safe for kids, but if you are a Seahawks fan or have seen that Greg Jennings Madden YouTube, you know what I am talking about.)

That's the thing right there.
You look at their team and see how young they are.
That team came so close and have a bitter taste in their mouth.
There are two ways to respond to that...go back to work with a HUGE chip on your shoulder and come back better or you crumble and give up.
I know they will come back stronger. That defense will be even better next year.
They need to get Wilson more big weapons...maybe a huge TE or WR or both.
Matt Ryan does so well in the passing game because he has two number 1 WRs and a HOF TE.
He can almost always count on Jones going up and making a great catch at anytime.
Anyway, thanks goes out to the Seahawks for their support!
In the meantime...GO RAVENS!

(See GB v SF game). Your d just needs to stay deciplined and remember their assignments.
They also like to run trap plays sending a lineman across to pin a defender. They stopped doing that to us when we simply trapped their trapper.
Kaepernick seems to panic under pressure, so if your pass rush has a good day you should be in good shape.
Their defense is tough, especially up front. Not much to offer here, other than your run game will be important. Lynch gets 100 yards every single time we play them, Rice should be able to do the same. Their d-line is nasty and the strongest part of their defense. If you want to see just how nasty their line and linebackers can be, watch them against the bears this year. I know Flacco is a pocket guy so I'd say if your pocket holds up and Rice has a good day you'll be fine. Their secondary is good but definitely beatable, as Atlanta demonstrated.
Good analysis.
Always loved the 'Hawks, especially in the Shaun Alexander days.

How do Seahawks find these guys?
Using Madden cheats Draft Guide - they know the stats of each player well ahead of the draft.

Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
Love the Seahawks, was hoping they would beat Atlanta and they should have. That's the way it goes sometimes (as we know only too well).
Thanks for the props
Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
Seattle is one of my favorite cities, and the Seahawks are my favorite team in the NFC. I was hoping for a birdbath in the Superbowl. With the Ravens prevailing, of course.
PS: Do something about the neon uniforms.
Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
The Seahawks definitely have a bright future. I had read so many good things about Russell Wilson early in the season I picked him up on my FFL team. Never got a chance to play him but when Romo floundered for my wife's team I advised her to pick him up. She ended up winning her Super Bowl.

Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
Thanks, man and your team had a great season and will be back next year.
Pete did a great job and should be a candidate for coach of the year.

Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
Richard Sherman is such an agitator, I love it, hahaha ... Man, I wish he were a Raven! Can you imagine!
Re: Congrats and good luck from a Seahawks fan!
Thanks for the well wishes Seahawks fans. When the Colts left, I adopted Seattle as my team, since I loved Steve Largent and the team colors. Your D is amazingly young and talented. I wanted the Ravens to draft Bobby Wagner. Thanks for the insight to the 9ners.
