Re: Two teams One Defense

That Seattle defense was just that good.. pretty much all season long. For entertainment value, the Superbowl game was played 2 weeks ago (49ers vs Seattle). Very little 'pop and sizzle' to this one.

Top 4. Shouldn't we get a Bowl Game? Like the Tostitos Stale Chips Bowl?

Remember all of the comments from fans and members?
Drew is done
Our offense is soft
We cant run
Wish we had Denver's receivers
Wish we had Payton Manning
Wish we had a RB like Moreno
Sean Payton is a terrible play caller

Apples to apples except we played Seattle in the Clink.

We out ran, passed and scored, the greatest offense in history that had never faced a top 5 NFC defense in that season until the Super Bowl.

Ill take Payton, Brees, our WRs, our RBs, our entire team of the heralded Payton Manning any and every day of the week.:bng:

Dont forget those weather conditions we played in at Clink vs the clear SB

I'd swap SF with New Orleans and Carolina with Arizona. But otherwise, that's about the way I would have listed them too.

Re: Two teams One Defense

Seattle, Denver, New Orleans, New England, San Francisco.

In my short time here, compared to the tenure of others, I credit your no nonsense / no bull method for increasing my succinct knowledge and ability to provide intelligent retorts to attacking cheeseheads.

With your influence and Danno (for the touch of 'tude)...I shred the cheese.
And with this I say Thank you!
