This is the only game this year I'm rooting for the Seahawks. I did pick the Pats, but I'm hoping I get that game wrong.

The Pats haven't looked dominant in any of their games. They let Miami, Buffalo, and Arizona hang around. Buffalo even had the lead during their game, and was 20 yards away from tying the game when Buffalo's O line let 2 guys in untouched for the sack, forced fumble, and touchdown.
And then, of course, Indy... without turnovers in the redzone, the Colts could have won handily... and the Pats needed a shanked kick from normally-automatic Vanderjagt to win.

lol. I think the biggest reason why is that we destroy teams when we are on the offensive.
STL is very lucky that holmy decided to do what he did against the giants(lay down)
we won't go soft again.

They're beatable. But I have the feeling they're not taking the Seahawks seriously after seeing the team blow the game Sunday. That should work in our favor. I just want to see the D get pressure up the middle, because I know the ends can contain. And we should be able to run the ball on them, others have: James got 142 on them, Travis Henry got 98.

yes, run the ball. I know that will work. we also needto control our blitzes and force them to pass.
we will win if we do this.

With all due respect to all of you and your team, who exactly have the Hawks beat, and what exactly have the Hawks accomplished?
The three wins were vs. some very bad teams, and the Rams would rank average in my category. Again, i don't mean to be mean or anything but come on...

Again, don't take any offense to this b/c I know as a fan of a team you can, NE has won two of the last three superbowls, 19 straight games...the Seahawks beat the Saints, Bucs, and Niners, and lost to the Rams, and NE is the one that isn't impressing you? I just don't get that.

the winning streak matters little, since it includes last year.
I always look beyond wins and losses, and i saw them struggle to beat buffalo, should had lost to indy, and a pair of good wins against brutal teams.
we killed the crap we played, and should had killed the only good team we had played so far, but instead we went soft and started playing not to lose. If we play to win,l we gain 27-10 leads against potential play off teams...

What the 'Hawks have done is irrelevant... the post is about the Pats, not the 'Hawks. If the Pats were playing the Iggles or the 49ers next week, my post would be exactly as valid as it is now.

I for one am not saying the Patriots aren't impressing. They're winning, and continue to. That is impressive. What I'm saying is they're not dominating, I think that Seattle has a very good chance to win this game for several reasons, IF: we successfully run the ball, get pressure up the middle, contain their running game to minimal effectiveness (and Dillon is not 100% from what I've read) and we don't turn the ball over and take advantage of any turnovers we create. I'm not dissing the Patriots, just saying I still believe in this team and I feel we can win this game.

I dont want to start anything here, but since win is beating a team 31-17 and sacking their QB 7 times, not convincing? Or 24-10, or 23-12, or beating a team that went to the afc title game last year with revenge on their mind in the colts. The pats do not blow anyone out, but last year, the didnt win in blow outs either, but they did win, they know how to do that. If you are saying your team is going to win becuase of how the pats play other teams, you might be in for a shock. The play to the level of their competiton. If we need a big game from brady he can deliver, if we dont he will not keep throwing the ball like you guys did last week when for whatever reason, you stopped running. Im not predicting anything, but I would not think an easy win is in store by any means, by how you think the pats have played. I mean a 10-6 over a 1-4 team is not exactly remarkable either is it?
