I was born in Seattle and left 20 years ago to the North.... Started as a fan in the Zorn/Largent era.....up until the dark years. Seeing them get to this stage has been great, backed by the community we should be grateful. Haters can hate! We know this game was a pickem. BOL Next Season.....

Tough luck bro. The difference in Seattle this year and last, and ultimately why I bet NE and GB, is their total lack of wr. They dont have anybody thats even a #2 on any other team. Baldwin is crap. 1 catch? Hell, Wilson was what 2/4 in the 1st half (or late into it). I mean jeez, their top guy wasnt playing football all year. Just think what they woulda done without him....

Appearing on WEEI-FM in Boston on Tuesday, Belichick said he considered calling a timeout, only to change his mind at the last second.
"We put our goal-line defense in probably around the same time they were sending in their multiple receiver group, and that's kind of what we wanted to be in there, to make sure they didn't run the ball in," Belichick said, per ESPN.com's Mike Reiss.
"I'd like to think had they tried to run the ball against our goal-line defense, with three receivers on the field -- we couldn't ask for any more than that in terms of trying to stop the running game," Belichick said. "We saw that matchup and we certainly gave some consideration to taking a timeout there and leaving some time on the clock. I don't know if that would have been a bad thing to do. It might have been a good thing to do. But it just seemed like -- in the flow of the game -- that we were OK with where we were."
Belichick can say whatever he wants, but the decision to let the clock burn away was controversial. It's extremely rare not to see a timeout called in that type of late-game scenario.
The Patriots did make one final adjustment, though, sending Butler in for linebacker Akeem Ayersjust before the snap.
The rest, of course, is history.

Here are my quick thoughts.
- If Lane stays healthy, Hawks win by 14+
- Simon is TRASH...Jimmy Wilson type trash
- Why couldn't Bobby wagner cover 1st half?
- Kearse's drop up 24-14 cost the Hawks the game.
- Too much zone with LB / DL on Vereen, Edleman.
My only and last comments on that game on Covers. We all know what should have happen. That's why there are no such things as locks, and never will be

For a guy who doesn't say much, wow.
So essentially they went all-out to stop the run, and that all-out forced Seattle to go with the pass.
That's out-coaching at its core. They got Seattle to do what they wanted them to do.
Amazing.
May never again see as drastic a play in the Super Bowl as that one. The Giants catch against the Pats on 4th-and-forever comes to mind, to compete with that one.

Also going all-out against the run meant he was expecting what just about everyone on the planet other than Seattle thought-here comes the run
Looking back it would have mad sense for Seattle to pack the line and jam it in. As it was, with 3 receivers, the Pats had one extra player than Seattle could block.
Essentially Belichik saw this situation-that they outnumbered Seattle v the run-and didn't call the timeout.
Wow. What an amazing moment, one that Belichik will remember forever and Carroll will do all he can to forget.
