Wow! I would have thought the sharps saw enough to open closer than that.

I love it!

Keep kicking us....

That's large and more an indication of the fans/gamblers opinions. The Seahawks have that "invincible" title etched into everyone's mind at the moment. I thought the Cards putting them down may change that but they are Mr. Popular still.

Doesn't surprise me at all.
One road playoff win doesn't change our image. Now if we beat Seattle in their house in the playoffs, well that could do it.

Morale is a dangerous thing. It turns an underdog into a rabid werewolf.

Watching the Bengals get blown out at home by a supposedly much weaker San Diego squad convinces me that all things are possible.

Maybe the odds will go higher for Seattle, after all they run a lot of illegal picks on offense and tug away on recievers on the D, they are good at it they hardly EVER get called for it. Just my opionion!! Carroll has trained them well.

3 points for home advantage;
2 points for 1 seed playing 6 seed; and
3 points for PED advantage.

I love it that pretty much everyone thinks that Seattle will ROLL in this game. This is gonna be a hotly contested game, and I know that we have a better chance than most are giving us

Since 2005, the No. 6 seed is 5-1 against the No. 1 seed.
