At this point what ever Seattle does or doesn't do is irrelevant until the post season.

We have three extremely relevant Division games coming up in the next month.

In our race with Carolina besides beating them.. The Rams game is huge in regards to common opponents.

Strief was our highest rated lineman. Part of the problem has been our guards making our center look better. We don't have a strong Oline.

One game at a time.

We now have to win the head to head vs carolina unless they lose more than us which is unlikely unless we beat them twice. Because common opponent is stronger tie breaker over conference record.

The 49ers would give them all they want in Seattle, and now that we've been there once the second match-up won't be as surprising to our guys.

The NFC Championship could be in New Orleans if we take care of our own business.

I agree with this. I fear the Saints more than I fear the Panthers because they have no idea what they are walking into. It is a tidal wave and unless you can prepare for it, you are going to lose. You guys and the Niners have the best chance of beating us so naturally we hope we play other teams.

Worse case scenario we split the H2H.

We don't lose two in a row.
Remember the Bills and Cowboys? Both at home after humiliating losses.
