I can't believe what Indy did in giving up that game. Oh well Manning won't get hurt. Last thing I want is Seattle winning the superbowl. I hope we get a good team next year. Imagine we beat the defending superbowl champs 35-0 and post a division sweep.
Go Rams!
Well as long as you're dreaming, you may as well dream big. The Rams will probably better next year, simply because I can't believe that could be this bad two years in a row. But to think that they are going to improve enough in one season to sweep the Seahawks next year is just wishful thinking. It's going to take a number of years of rebuilding for the Rams to be competitive again with a new coaching staff and front office. I think you are looking at a lot of years looking up to the Seahawks in the standings, may as well get used to it now.
Don't feel bad, this just gives you an early start on your draft board, and no matter who you pick they will probably be better than who you have now.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Ahem, Last year, Rams sweep Seahawks, This year Seahawks Sweep Rams.Quote:

Yes, but the Seahawks last year were better than the Rams this year. There wasn't a big change in coaching or personnel from last year to this year. Sorry, but from an outsider looking in I think the Rams are a long way from challenging for the Division championship. I think AZ is actually closer if they can settle on a QB.
Give it up? It was 14-3 with all the starters in.Quote:

Here are some you never looked up
Hamilin(FS) out
Herndon(CB) out
Dyson(CB) out
Trufant(CB) out 3 quarters
Darby (DT) out
Sharper (LB) out
both teams had injuries. colts lost, hawks won.
That's not the point, Seahawk Fan For Life said it was 14-3 with all the Colts starters in. That isnt true.Quote:

So if some Hawks fans want to think that they beat the real Colts, if they meet again you could be in for a rude awakening.
and some colts fans seem to think they beat the real seahawks. I guess it depends what jersey you wear And to say 5 starters on defense isnt that bad is completely rediculous.You also cant "assume" the colts would beat us with thier starters. Point being this game doesnt really mean much. Just that the hawks backups are good, colts werent too impressive
The Hawk team that played yesterday is about as real as they will get. The Colts team that played yesterday was pretty much a 2nd string team.Quote:

Just don't get to full of yourself you haven't even won a playoff game yet.
just dont understand your logic when you say the hawks were "as real as they get" THEY HAD 5 STARTERS OUT! you cannot discount that. There will be 2 DIFFERENT teams if these 2 teams face eachother in the superbowl. Whos getting full of themselves? Is it against rules on being excited aboput a 13-2 team?
I can discount these two, Sharper has hardly played (if at all, not sure), Hamilin missed over half the season, and neither will be back, so they are out of the equation and have been for a long time.
I don't see what's so hard to understand. The Hawks are as real as they get because the team won't look much different with 3 players possibly coming back. What we saw yesterday was the Hawks pretty much in a nutshell. What we saw yesterday from the Colts were 2nd stringers for most of the game. The whole Hawk offense is intact.
The only way the Hawks will look radically different is if they have more injuries in the playoffs.
