What happen to Ryan's great defense or the unstoppable Graham and Brees?

Twenty minutes ago you told us all how you were annoyed by fans who over-react to one game...and then you post this... over-reaction to one game?

This has been a fun thread tonight. Not just football but also Kary Perry and Led Zeppelin. And my wife asks me why I like reading Cowboyszone. This is why :)

Any reference to Katy Perry makes a part of me smile. But you best not tell your wife about it.

It is going to take a team with a dominant defense, particularly up front, to go in and beat Seattle up there. That pretty much leaves SF and Carolina as the only viable contenders. A nice offense would be a bonus, so I give the edge to the Panthers over the Niners.

Don't think either wins but they have the best chance IMO.

Any given Sunday is legit, but the other NFC teams have zero chance to go up there and win. Someone is going to have to catch Seattle having a really bad day :(

I agree with the first part of your post. Regarding SF...don't forget they just got Crabtree back. That offense could still be stout down the stretch and in the playoffs.

But wow...the 12th man in Seattle is one hell of a player.

That was kind of my point in posting that.

Yea, SF could beat them in SF, but not sure about in the NW. Not even sure Carolina can up there. I am still not sold on Kaper, especially being able to win up there.

I agree lets just make the playoffs first before even thinking about the nfc championship. this team has not even come close in 17 years.
That was not the point, it was just for the sake of discussion, I never said we will get there.

New Orleans hasn't taken a beating like that since August 2005

Seattle very well may be the best team, especially if the road to the SB goes through there. If this game tonight was in NO, it would probably be a different outcome. Not saying NO wins like Seattle did, might even have lost but don't judge NO on one game, they are good.

I don't think any team beats Seattle tonight, they played that good. But, it is too early to crown them IMO. Fortunately for them, they should have home-field.

I don't think NO wins or even goes to the Super Bowl now. They don't play well outdoors in cold weather. If the road went through NO, they would probably make it.

I never said NO was not good. They simply met a better team in Seattle. Without Harvin and minus TWO starting corners to boot. It was'nt even close. This game was competitive for less time than the Dallas-NO matchup a few weeks ago. They were outclassed. Period. It was a statement game, with a reminder that you better have your running game and defense in order if you have to play them at home.

Watch my Giants demolish this Seattle team in 2-3 weeks. Can I make a bold statement here? Giants will win easily against Seattle. :)

You talking about the same Giants team that had to have the refs help to beat the 3 win Skins?

I could live with those two in it. I can't think of any other teams(excluding us) that I would want to get a ring. Maybe Carolina or Indy but I don't want Cam or Luck to get a ring this early. Wilson either but I like him much more than Kaeper and RG3.

If Dallas can't get there, let Peyton get one more so his goofy brother no longer has bragging rights.

No way Indy is going. After Wayne went down, they are a disaster on offense. Honestly, if anyone can beat Seattle at home, it would be them due to how they are set up to win. Saints are predicated on offense. And their offensive gameplan is a lot different than the Panthers. Carolina can ugly up a game and that's how they like it.

Got to watch out for the Niners as well. They seem to be clicking of late but seattle destroyed them at home earlier at home n SNF. Curious to see how Seattle does this coming week in SF.

Seattle came out prepared. I do believe they are playing the best football in the NFL next to the Panthers, who are quietly sneaking up on people.

If nothing else, I think Romo would welcome the opportunity to go to Seattle in the playoffs at a chance for redemption. It might be a shootout like the Denver game. Any given Sunday.

Seattle is not getting beaten at home. By anybody.

I agree with this. Barring an injury to their QB, they are walking to the SB. They are a powerful and complete team, and nearly impossible to beat at home.

Seattle has their secret sauce in their chewing gum.

Carroll & some of their players chew gum like a cow chewing his cud.

Seattle is not a "shoot out" type of team like Denver is. Seattle has a bunch of bullies (in a good way) and tough guys and they are even more hostile and brash when they're at home. They have a mean pass rush, and the best cornerback and possible safety combination in the entire league. Seattle at home is the worst possible matchup for Tony Romo and the Cowboys.

They had a poll last night on NFL Total Access where they asked which team is most likely to win in Seattle come playoff time. 30% said Panthers, an the Cowboys were 27%. No other teams were close. Human emotion plays into games and their outcomes. The offense would have to be perfect. Similar to how they played the Saints in New Orleans back in 2009.

Who cares what a poll says, watch the games and the teams play. The Cowboys couldn't even handle the game at New Orleans and now you think they could handle the Seahawks in Seattle?
