No doubt, the Seahawks had everything going against them.
1. A few days to get ready vs. Atlanta's 2 weeks
2. Road game with Loooots of travel time - I dunno about you guys, but for me even if it's first class or better it takes it out of you
3. Playing in a dome -- I agree with Jemanji, this is not a turf team - ya the CLink has turf but it's an outdoor stadium. First thing I though watching the game was, T-shirts??? uh oh
4. Rookie QB & MLB
5. Lost best pass rusher
6. M. Lynch wounded
7. 10am start time when jetlagged
8. Atlanta with that weird HOF-player-playing-in-possibly-his-last-game-ever vibe that seems to inspire teams to do good things
Really it's amazing they made it as close as they did. All that and the Falcon's barely pulled it off. They should be ashamed. ;-)
Wilson looked off in both playoff games though. His passes, especially against Washington, were sailing high early, too much muscle. In both games he settled down towards the end. He's as cool a cucumber as there is, but he's still an awfully young kid. 2 playoff games is invaluable to his development.
This is a team I am proud of though, much more so than great teams of Seahawks past. They are warriors.
