Super Bowl - in-depth analysis

[HRBAKER]

Can you say, BACKFIRE!

[Runscott]

I don't know, but I can say 'Up With People'. Never thought I would say that, but half-naked old tattooed white guys doing rap just doesn't do it for me.

LOL and +1

EVERYTHING is going Seattle's way tonight....everything.

[MyGuyTy]

Who else was waiting for Holiday to fumble that kick return? Lol

Denver is a joke.. total joke. Please pardon me, any Rocky Mtn area fans, but this is a total joke (a la 55-10 in 1990).

[HRBAKER]

Inertia man, Denver is swirling the bowl now.

Don't care who wins but would enjoy a semblance of a game.

They're moving the ball now, but this is bringing back 55-10 memories of Denver, lol

Ian, I'm really hoping San Francisco is good enough to get back to Seattle for next year's NFC Championship game (assuming Dallas chokes again). I know I said earlier I hoped it would be in S.F., but that' probably not going to happen.

I will buy the first round next year if it happens.

Dallas? No offense, but even mentioning that underperforming no talents is rather humorous to me. They won't choke, they simply have zero talent to get anywhere near this game. The first year Carroll got here, he made more changes than any other coach in NFL history, and Dallas is in need of those changes...and as a Seattle resident, I was worried to say the least. I went from being admittedly a huge Flynn fan to thinking "what the hell is Carroll doing??" like most Seattle fans (if you say you weren't thinking that you are friggen lying...lol). Schneider and Carroll are fricken geniouses...I bow to their direction and THANK GOD they came here. A truly blessed fan and humbled Seattlite tonight!

I remember being 9 years old watching the city being mesmerized by the Championship Sonics...we haven't had success on that level since...I am now taking my 9 year old to the parade on Wednesday...hopefully we don't have to wait until HIS son is 9!!! GO HAWKS!!

So they have finished 8-8 each year and you call them "underperforming", yet you say they have zero talent? Not bad for underperforming no talent players.

The reason Cowboys fans like me are so frustrated with the team is that they have gone into each of the last three seasons with high expectations, BECAUSE of the talent, and have then underperformed - the players along with the management. I mention them for one reason - I have been a fan since 1966 - that's 47 years. How old are you?

Sorry for the rant, but if you are going to talk football, talk about the part you have been watching, or do some googling first. No offense.

Scott...I appreciate your comments, and if you are referring to me as too young to have an opinion I thank you for the compliment...haha. I have been a fan of the Seahawks since 1976, their inception, and have been a season ticket holder since 1980 (my parents) and took over their tickets...and personally am old enough to remember Tony Dorsett as my favorite player in my youth. So by math you got maybe 10 years on me as a fan...again...

I just see Romo as a QB who will never lead that team to the promise land (all I can think when saying Romo was the botched hold and fumble against my beloved Seahawks). I also feel your team needs major overhauls...just like the Seahawks had to go thru. Sure...we could have held on to the players who were aging and "so-so" that brought us our 2005 NFC Championship...but now...MASSIVE overhauls and good drafts and signings changed our fortunes. To me, the Cowboys are poster childs for the need to rebuild. Yes, they have a stellar history...but it's just that...history. They lack the coaching and the talent for the next level...and as a die hard Seahawk fan who was AGAINST all the changes we went thru (I am truly humbled by the genius of Carroll and Schneider), I certainly don't have the Cowboys answer...I just know with their current line up top to bottom...I am just glad I am NOT a fan...

To answer the age question...I was born in 1970...I am hoping you rip on me for being young...HAHAHA....

That was an awesome touchdown by Kearse!

Some DBs can tackle, some can't. The ones who can't are a large reason Mr Peyton threw for more yards than anyone ever this year, while probably averaging fewer actual "yards in air" per throw than just about anyone.

Kearse/Baldwin are super underrated.. Those guys just make plan.

Adding- Seattle defends the pass better than any team I've ever seen, and this includes tackle/strip after the catch

[Kenny Cole]

This is just painful to watch.

[HRBAKER]

The "legacy" talk will be interesting to listen to this coming week.

I'm thinking that Bob Dylan and Paul McCartney go to the same hairdresser.

I learned my lesson and took care of business before kick-off.

Hahaha! Nice!

Denver looks like they're never played football before.....

[itjclarke]

Seattle is this good... Denver isn't doing the AFC much credit, but Seattle is damn good. This said from a lifelong Niner fan, who's dying knowing we'd be taking it to the Broncos right now as well.

Scott- you're on.. Btw, I'm now 0-3 in games I've attended in Seattle.. My fortune is bound to change next year!

Until further notice, the championship goes through the NFC west (includes the Cards if they ever get consistent QB play or a running game)

That NFC West is gonna be SOLID for a while! Funny how just a few years ago the NFC West was the worst division in football, my has that changed quickly.
