    By the way, anyone else find it ironic that Harbaugh got flagged yesterday for doing basically the same thing Bryant did last week without the flag, coming on to the field to argue a call?

    The Ice Bowl Temps were-15, today's Temps hardly that brutal like 40 degrees warmer so no ice bowl II.

    Romo effs up Jerry Jones has a red face, Green Bay wins 31-27 advances and loses to Seattle in a blowout.

    Excuse me boys, but give the Panthers their due. Look at the box scores.

    Time of possession Panthers 34.03 minutes/ 21 first downs Hawks 25.57 minutes 16 first downs. Again, a little like the Pats game. Seattle played a clean game while the Panthers had ONE fumble and TWO interceptions. One of which was devastating.

    Lesson. Don't make those mistakes. RUN hard and long, and keep pressure on Mr. Wilson and you CAN keep the game CLOSE and who knows!

    Seattle is good, no doubt but no one is invincible. Let's see what the boys do today. Again, I don't have much confidence in Cowboy "consistency"!

    Of course nobody is invincible, but Seattle is as close as it gets. The stats from that game last night are misleading, on paper Carolina looks competitive but when actually watching that game the outcome was never really in question. The Patriots game felt completely different, the Ravens could have won that game but didn't. The Panthers were never going to win that game in Seattle.

    Seattle CAN be beaten, but if you had to bet all your money on a team to win a big game who you gonna pick? I bet it sounds an awful lot like 'Shehawks'.

    That's all IMO of course.

    Wilson with a 149.2 QB rating yesterday. Da man. He may not compile some of the sexy stats every week, but he gets it done. That, along with a stellar defense and The Beast... We're confident up here, but that "Any Given Sunday" saying didn't just come out of nowhere.

    Dang, Manning can't be consistently over throwing the receivers if he wants to win this. 4-5 times now.

    You guys ready to hear another call being talked about for a whole week? I hope so because you just got it, that reversal of the punt fumble doesn't seem like it's the correct call. Although this call is earlier in the game, and the Broncos don't really seem interested in winning anyway so isn't impacting the game like the one last week.

    I know I've been saying for the last two months basically that Denver isn't gonna do that well in the playoffs and not a super bowl contender in my eyes, but certainly didn't expect them to be THIS bad.

    Seriously, what the hell is going on in Denver???

    Why the hate for the Hawks man? 3rd year 3rd round pick quarterback. Made the playoffs year 1, won the Superbowl year 2 and threatening year 3. Tenacious defense of young guys, mostly late round picks or undrafted free agents. RW with a quarterback rating of nearly 150 yesterday. They faced a team with a formidable run defense and aired it out for a huge win, even though they aren't known for their passing game. My $$ is on the Hawks to repeat...

    Really, you don't understand why people hate the Hawks???

    Why do people hate the Patriots? Why do people hate the Yankees? Why do people hate Tiger Woods? Welcome to the winner's circle, where everyone except your fans hate you.

    Add to that the fact that they come across as a team of jerks and a$$holes and you've got the perfect recipe for people 'hating' the Seahawks. Note I didn't see they ARE those things, but that's how they come across to a lot of people.

    Second, it will be interesting to see what Lovie Smith will do this upcoming season. He is cut from the same mold as Tony Dungy, who did win a Super Bowl. Granted Dungy's Colts were much more talented than Smith's present Buccaneers. Truthfully, I would be very pleasantly surprised if the Bucs made the big show this year. An 8-8 season this year would be a vast improvement over last year's 4-12 shipwreck.

    Now, THIS was a fun one! Hey, the Buc's did "earn" the first pick in the next draft!

    Other than the occasional brashness of Sherman (which, I can see being fuel for 'sports hate' among non Seattle fans-- we love the guy of course) I can't think of any other players, incidents, etc that possibly contribute to the Hawks coming off as an entire "team of jerks and a$$holes". Maybe I'm wearing blue and green glasses, but I don't see it. That said, frankly, I don't give much of a damn who likes our team. We're winning right now. And it's grand. :)

    I guess not even nationwide is on Peyton's side, terrible performance and I only seen the second half. They are towards the bottom of the first round in the draft so much for Denver getting a QB. I think Ponders available Manning is done.

    What a truly horrific game by Denver today, I can't recall ever enduring a worse performance by one of my teams in the playoffs. I've watched my Colts lose to the Patriots multiple times but they were at least close in those games, and if not close at least appeared to be interested in the outcome.

    I was torn with this game anyway because they're both 'my teams' and have been for a long time, but I was secretly rooting for the Broncos because I'd like to see Manning get another shot at a super bowl.

    I feel bad for Manning, he's a class act and a great ambassador for the NFL and I hate to see him go out like this. This isn't a fluke bad game by Manning, he's played bad consistently for a while now. It's pretty clear that he's simply worn out, everyone can see the bad throws but you can see it in other aspects as well. Go watch a game from last year and then watch one from the last few weeks, even his energy at the line just calling plays and such is nowhere near the same.

    I think he's done, and if that is the case I think walking off the field with a loss like that and your fans booing is a **** way to end your career.
