Let me give a little insight on Percy Harvin. He tore his Labrum which was never physically attached properly (a birth defect). He has never played with the ball and socket in perfect harmony. This has always put a tremendous amount of strain on tissue and finally, it tore. This condition has also limited many muscles that have never been used. When they fixed the Labrum, the tissue not only had to heal, but the full range ball and socked triggered muscle use that had normally stayed dormant and that is why his hip was swelling even though there was nothing structurally wrong. The Hawks wanted to give his body time to adjust to his new found muscle tissue which had again, stayed dormant his entire life and now he has even more power. He is not only as fast as he ever was, but now he is fully healed and is fully prepared for physical contact. All week players (Especially from our secondary) have been tweeting how he is "unbelievable" and at times leaving them in the dust. For Richard Sherman to say that if he beats him with one step, it is over is astonishing. Sherman (and his uber competitiveness) never gives props to individual receivers. Go ahead and stick your head in the sand all you want about Harvin, you won't be laughing Saturday!!

Who's sticking their head in the sand? I never said Harvin isn't a good player.

But for anybody to call him "the best football player I've ever seen" is a completely dumb statement.

A "dumb statement" by his teammate for almost all of his professional career and perhaps the greatest NFL running back in history? I can't think of someone to better attest than Peterson. You guys have a great board and fan base but I am baffled by the Harvin comments.

Anyways, it sucks one of our teams has to lose and go home (Of course for us it would be a short trip). I love the buildup to the game and yet now all the marbles are on the line.

Considering Sherman's 40 time is 4.55 it wouldn't surprise me that Harvin beats him...

Your right though, Harvin is soo scary. For a guy that has never had a 1000 yd season, a guy that has never had more than 7 TDs he sure gets a lot of 'talk'.

I always thought the 40 yard dash should be done with pads. Some guys have all world speed but put some pads on, they lose significant speed. Anyways, you guys have a great fan base and if we do lose, I will root like crazy for you to beat the Whiners (I don't see the Panthers winning).
