Since 2010, the Seahawks are 6-0 in opening round games

[Sydla]

Speaks to how good Carroll and Wilson are in big moments.

2010 - beat New Orleans in Seattle
2012 - beat Washington in Washington
2013 - beat New Orleans in Seattle
2014 - beat Carolina in Seattle
2015 - beat Minny in Minny
2016 - beat Detroit in Seattle

Now four of those games were in Seattle which is a big boost. But Seattle also doesn't make mistakes or come out small in their first playoff game. Cowboys can't sleep walk through the opening minutes of this game or make mistakes if they want to live for the following the weekend in New Orleans or LA.

 

[Prime21]

Due for an L imo.

 

[RoyalCowboy]

So let's make it 6-1. Go Cowboys.

 

[Tommy]

Kris Richard is also 6-0 since 2010.

He will be 7-0 after Saturday night.

WE'RE DOOMED!!!!!!!

Good post. But, the only reason they beat the Vikings in 2015 is because the Vikings kicker shanked a chip shot field goal at the end. But I guess that supports your premise, the Cowboys can't afford to gift the Seahawks anything.

Hopefully that is how the announcers open the game up by talking about the seahawks being 6-0 in opening rounds. The announcers jinx. lol

Nice catch and comeback.

And only because of one reason. Has something to do because that reason has something in common with a vacuum.

But we are already jinxed because we have Bucky Joe and Troy. And I think that is too big of a jinx to cancel each out.

You could look at this another way. They've played only 2 away games and won both - including the Minnesota game due to an unexpected kicking mishap. Not really statistically significant.

 

[Risen Star]

It's the toughest possible matchup in the wild card round. People can love Chicago all they want but I'll take my chances against their QB than Seattle's.

 

[Risen Star]

Seahawks, @ Rams, @ Saints, Chiefs

That's a murderer's row to a Championship.

Game 1 - Bird season
Game 2 - Wild game season
Game 3 - Fake good person season
Game 4 - Ah yes...Cowboys and Indians time....

 

[Idgit]

It’s more a commentary on how good that team of theirs was for along stretch. They had a fantastic young team

Well I guess that means their record will take a bit of a hit after Saturday. It's going to drag their average down.

Yeah, but schedules often do not follow the script. Having said that i fully expect we will have nothing go our way and catcha break anywhere along the way.

Bears might be the worst matchup for us though, honestly. They may be the only team in the playoffs that could conceiveably be better than us both on offense and defense.

When I think about that scenario (FG at the end), I get queasy.

Me too. But I've always been that way with any and every FG attempt, even Bailey. I'm the same way with a punt returner - always queasy hoping he doesn't muff the catch.
