Yep, Danno. I'm feeling that 13 you speak of. We've got to break this hold that Atlanta has over us with respect to close games! We are the better team here, although I appreciate their concerted effort when they come to town. LOL
However... I DO NOT want to play them then play them again in the playoffs. Law of averages will not make that a favorable matchup no matter how you look at it. Alaska |

If the Seahawks don't beat the Niners on Sat, it doesn't matter as much if we beat the Falcons, we will have the #3. Most of us at the beginning of the season would have been fine splitting with Atlanta anyway. Would really suck to lose to them in the Dome.
