Ok sure I'm writing a Super Bowl preview a week and a half away from the day before kickoff but so what! Too excited to wait. The second time in Seahawks history they are in the Super Bowl, but this opponent is way different from any opponent that they have face this season. For the first time since Super Bowl XXV that the number one offensive and defensive teams will be facing off for the ultimate prize......the Lombardi Trophy and to be crowned Super Bowl Champs!
The Seahawks have been from this stage in the NFL for 8 years and the last time they were there it was a complete disaster (thanks to the striped assholes calling the game). They fell short of their goal of Super Bowl champs to the Pittsburgh Steelers 21-10. Let's just hope that the refs will call a fair game in this Super Bowl huh?
Anyways, getting back to the game the Seahawks have the better team. Why do I say that the Seahawks have a better team compared to the Denver Broncos who have had Peyton Manning, DeMaryius Thomas, Wes Welker, Knoshon Moreno, and Eric Decker on their team? Simple, the Seahawks want this game more and have more to prove then the Broncos.
The Hawks have gone through criticism all season and have had the media doubt them all season long. Their wide receiver's have been called "pedestrian" but quoting wide out Doug Baldwin "It irritates the hell out of me when guys constantly want to talk about receiving, talking about we're average, we're pedestrian. Well guess what? We're walking our ass to the Super Bowl as pedestrians".
The Seahawks wide receiver core may not have any Pro Bowlers or highlight players in the eyes of the media and the experts but all season long Baldwin, Golden Tate, and Jermaine Kearse have shown how good they really are. The experts fail to forget that it was Kearse who made the game winning catch against the Panthers in Week 1, or made a spectacular catch in the Colts game to keep the Hawks in the game, and guess what? It was Kearse who made the tough catch against the 49ers last Sunday that basically won the game for the Seahawks. Golden Tate has had a career season for catches (64) and yards (898), he also had a career game against the St. Louis Rams in the final game of the season catching 8 passes for a career high 129 yards.
Those are not "pedestrian" wide receivers to me. The Seahawks may not have three guys who have caught 10+ touchdowns like the Broncos have no they have speedy and athletic young men who are ready to prove to the whole nation that even though they are not Pro Bowlers they are just as good.
The Broncos have Peyton Manning yes we know but here's the thing you take Manning away and the Broncos are not a Super Bowl team! That's all the Broncos are is a passing team and all season long the Seahawks secondary has shut down passing teams like this. The Legion of Boom have three terrific All-Pro and Pro Bowl players but their backups are just as dangerous. Byron Maxwell was put in for the suspended Brandon Browner and in just 5 games he picked off 4 passes!!!
Walter Thurmond III is just as dangerous, he may only have had one interception during the season but he still a great defender. Jeremy Lane has been outstanding for the Seahawks as well. To me this guy should have been a Pro Bowler for special teams, he's also a great cornerback as well.
The Broncos defense is good......but not that good. Their defense has proven that they are weak, when they go up against teams who actually HAVE an offense they struggle. The Broncos D almost blew it two weeks ago as the San Diego Chargers scored 17 points in the 4th quarter, their offense also struggled against the Chargers defense as well. The Broncos D has shown they are week in their three loses and in a couple of their wins.
If Russell Wilson can get his legs moving while under pressure and run the ball in 10 days then the Seahawks may have a shot at really pounding the Broncos. Wilson has been holding the ball way too long in the past couple games, during the first half of the season he ran the ball more often but since week 8 he has ran the ball less and less. During a three game stretch he ran 33 times and ran for 240 yards!! I mean damn what happened after that huh? Since Week 17 he has ran the ball 13 times for 15 yards.......that's not Russell Wilson. It's a big importance that Russell runs in his first Super Bowl when he has no one to go to.
Another big key in this Super Bowl for the Seahawks is get to Manning early and sack his ass! You do that you have Manning and the Broncos on the ropes. Manning has been sacked 7 times in the 3 loses this season and in the 13 that he has won he's been sacked 11 times......yeah weird huh? Doesn't matter the Seahawks D-Line needs to get to Manning early and put pressure on him and get him to panic to throw the ball, that will allow the secondary to pick Manning off or with the pressure have Manning throw it away.
Another thing is that Seahawks offensive corridinator Darrell Bevell needs to call a smart game. He's been highly criticized by myself and a lot of other Seahawks fans, but I do have to give him kudos on calling a great game last week, but he really does need to let Russell call the game. In the loss against the Colts it looked like Russell was calling the plays, actually the three game rushing stretch for Wilson looked like he was calling the plays. The point I'm trying to make is that Bevell needs to call one more smart game and let Russell call the plays from time to time.
The running game in the last three games has been scary for the Seahawks, lead by their Pro Bowl running back Marshawn Lynch has ran for 346 yards in the last 3 games (249 in the playoffs). Beast Mode has been on another level since Week 17......boy has been eating his Skittles. Lynch needs to keep this stretch going against the Broncos, who are ranked 8th in run defense in the NFL. Before the Divisional Round Game Lynch had gone 6 weeks of not going over the century mark but since then he's broken big runs and of course created two new Beast Quakes.
The Broncos really have nothing to threaten the Seahawks if you look at it. The Hawks have the number one defense against the passing game and are 7th against the running game. Last week the Seahawks had one horrible game against the run game as Colin Kaepernick ran for 130 yards, but getting onto a positive note they only allowed 31 yards on 17 carries to the other running backs that the Niners had. The Seahawks have also shut down some of the game's best quarterbacks this season.
They held Cam Newton to 125 yards in Week 1, Kaepernick to 127 the following week, held Andrew Luck to 229 yards in Week 5, Matt Ryan to 172 in Week 10, Drew Brees to 147 in Week 13, Kaepernick to 175 in Week 14, held Eli Manning to 156 in Week 15 and picked him off 5 times, and then Kaepernick one more time last week to only 153 yards.
The numbers don't lie, this Seahawks secondary is the most feared in the NFL and the Seahawks lead the NFL in takeaway's with 28 coming from interceptions. This Super Bowl is really going to be one helluva show. Both teams have explosive offenses but the Seahawks still have the advantage in the defensive face-off.
This is going to be a game to remember win or lose the Seattle Seahawks have had a terrific season and the 12th Man will always be there to support the team including myself. I just wish the Super Bowl was kicking off this week instead of on February 2nd.
GO HAWKS!!!!!

One game win or go home!
Two days remain on the countdown to Championship weekend in the NFL, but one of those games has more media attention then any other game in the playoffs. The Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers square off for one last time this season for a shot at becoming NFC Champs and for a trip to Super Bowl XLVIII. The Seahawks and the 49ers series is tied at 15-15 but the funny thing is that this will be the first time these two rivals face each other in the playoffs! Percy Harvin has already been ruled out of this Sunday's game with a concussion but K.J. Wright is ready to play, not at 100% but he will play on Sunday. The fans, the media, and the teams always look forward to facing each other but this one is for all the marbles in the bag.
Russell Wilson will look to improve from his last 4 games. Wilson has look sluggish in last couple games by over throwing his intended receivers, not running with the ball when he has a shot at 10 or more yards, and making rookie mistakes. Some of the media has said that the sophomore slump is getting to Wilson at the wrong time, but I look at it differently.......he was just saving his A-game for this game! Wilson finished the season with a career high 3,357 passing yards and a career low of 9 interceptions. Colin Kaepernick apparently already went through the sophomore slump in the first 3 games of the season but Kaepernick has problems getting the ball off in time and he has had numerous delay of game penalties on him this year, so you know the 12th Man is going to be a huge factor in this game.
Kaepernick will have his safety blanket back for this game that he did not have in the first meeting at Century Link and that is Michael Crabtree. Crabtree suffered a torn achilles tendon at the start of the season and missed all but the last 5 games of the season, since then he has caught 33 passes for only 284 yards and 1 touchdown. Richard Sherman will do his best to shut down the Niners main receiver and the rest of the Legion of Boom will try to keep Anquan Boldin and Vernon Davis contained as well.
The goal in this game is for Russell to get going early and stay going. His main wide receiver Golden Tate was held to only 1 catch for 13 yards so its very important that Tate and Doug Baldwin get open, but Wilson does have another weapon not Jermaine Kearse but Zach Miller. If Wilson wants to get ahead early he and head coach Pete Carroll need to get Miller involved. Last year Miller caught 12 catches for 190 yards and 1 touchdown including his 142 performance in the Divisional loss to Atlanta. Miller was the big reason why the Seahawks came 31 seconds close to winning that game, so again its important that Wilson gets Miller the ball. One more weapon the Seahawks have of course is Beast Mode Marshawn Lynch, who set both a career high and a Seahawks playoff record last week with 140 yards on the ground. Wilson needs to get Lynch the ball also through the air.
There's plenty of things the Seahawks must do to win this game. Score points early, shutdown the Niner receivers, put a lot of pressure of Kaepernick, and above all give Russell Wilson plenty of protection. This Sunday is the final home game for the Seahawks and they want to give their fans one more win, they do not want the Niners winning a third consecutive road playoff win and winning the Conference Championship on their own field. The 12th Man needs to stay loud and get louder on every defensive play to get to Kaepernick and make him and head coach Jim Harbaugh to call timeouts early. In two days the Seahawks biggest game of the franchise kicks off and millions of football fans will be watch this heated rivalry not knowing who will come out on top.

Seahawks journey to New Jersey begins
13-3, the #1 seed, and home field advantage through out the playoff; this is how the Seattle Seahawks journey to New Jersey will officially begin. The Seahawks have the privilege of having the first-round bye but who will face this talented Seahawks team at Century Link Field on January 12th? I'm guessing plenty of Seahawks fans are hoping for Hawks/Niners rematch, but lets look at the facts first shall we? The Seahawks will be playing the lowest seed team after the two Wild Card games are over and looking at who is facing who it may become a Seahawks/Saints rematch.
The New Orleans Saints face the NFC East Champion Philadelphia Eagles in Phili. Now, do I think the Eagles have a snowballs chance in hell of beating the Saints........yes I actually do. Since Nick Foles has become the starting quarterback for the Eagles he's taken this team from 3-5 to winning 7 of their last 8 games. Foles has only thrown 2 interceptions in his 8 games played, he's the 2013 version of Colin Kaepernick from last year. With Desean Jackson, Riley Cooper, and Brent Celek as his go-to wide receivers Foles has thrown for 2,891 yards in the games that he started, and he has one more weapon to back him up......Lesean McCoy. McCoy has had a career year rushing for a career high 1,607 yards and 9 touchdowns and he will be the main weapon the Eagles have against the Saints.
The Saints do have the advantage in pass defense as they are ranked 2nd in the NFL in allowing passing yards with only allowing 194.1 passing yards per game, but they do rank 19th in rushing defense giving up 111.6 rushing yards a game. So, the Eagles may have a tough time passing the ball but rushing they should have no problem but the Eagles are the worst in pass defense ranking 32nd in the NFL. So, again the Saints are the passingest team in the NFL going against the worst passing defense in the NFL there is advantage New Orleans have.
For the Niners/Packers game its a rematch from last years Divisional Round game where Kaepernick ran for an NFL QB playoff record 181 yards including a 56 yard run that basically broke the Packers back. This year though its two different Packers and 49ers team. This year the Packers struggled through injuries and used 4 different starting QBs, while the Niners started out 1-2 with Kaepernick struggling but bounced back to win 5 straight and finally winning their final 6 games in a row. So, who really has the advantage in this game? Both teams are in the Top 10 in rushing but the Packers have the advantage in the passing game, the Niners rank 30th in the NFL in passing with only averaging 186.2 yards a game.
The Packers also have their franchise QB back in Aaron Rodgers after missing 7 weeks with a broken collarbone. Rodgers had one hell of a bounce back game against the Bears in the final game of the season throwing for 318 yards and 2 touchdowns including the game winning 48 yard throw to Randall Cobb with 38 seconds left. Now, the Niners defense is going to tough to beat as they rank 7th in pass defense and 4th in rush defense. The Packers though will be prepared to not allow Kaepernick to do what he did last year both in passing and rushing so be prepared to see one physical game.
Now how bout I talk about the Seahawks again? The Hawks began the season a franchise best 11-1 before their final 4 games, but during the final 4 games the Hawks have gone 2-2 including their first home loss in 2 years. But last Sunday's 27-9 win over the Rams showed the Seahawks offense get their mojo back as Golden Tate had a career game catching 8 passes for 129 yards and a touchdown. Russell Wilson knows this stage well, as he lead the Seahawks to their first road playoff win last year for the first time since 1983.
The Seahawks have a ray of light at the end of the tunnel as Percy Harvin has been practicing with the team and could play in two weeks. Harvin played only one game this year and caught one throw for 17 yards and had a 58 yard kick return but went back on injured list, but he is said to be in practice and with only 3 wins away from being Super Bowl Champs Harvin coming back to play is a huge break for the Seahawks.
The last time the Seahawks had home field advantage in playoffs they went all the way to the Super Bowl only to fall to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but this years Seahawks are looking to finish what the 2005 Hawks could not and that is to hold the Lombardi Trophy in New Jersey. With only one month left in the NFL season in just 10 days the Seahawks journey to Super Bowl XLVIII will begin but their opponent is still unknown we will know who will be the first team to fall to Seattle's destiny.

The tragedy of fan violence
Last night in Denver fan violence took another turn for the worse as three people were stabbed in the parking lot after the Broncos 27-20 loss to the San Diego Chargers. This altercation isn't the first this year, just a couple weeks ago a 28 year old woman was charged with murder in a shooting that followed the loss Alabama suffered in the Iron Bowl against Auburn. The victim's sister says the suspect shot her because she was mad at her for joking about the loss and didn't seem to be enough a Crimson Tide fan. Earlier this month and man died in an altercation in the Arrowhead Stadium parking lot during Kansas City's game against Denver.
Fan violence has been around for as long as anyone can remember, but for some reason in the past 4 years it has gotten worse to where police officer's are putting on opposing team jersey's and going undercover. Just this last Sunday a 49ers fan was arrested after trying to start a fight with an undercover cop in a Seahawks jersey. Look I understand the rivalry between teams but when people are getting into fights and dying OVER A GAME its just ridiculous.
Other nations have the same problem as American sports, especially in soccer. Soccer fans usually start fights that escalate into riots which then results in either numerous deaths/injuries.
I first experienced fan violence in 1997 when I took a trip to Oakland to see the Seahawks play the Oakland Raiders. Before Niner fans became the arrogant douche bags they are now Raider fans were the worst, just imagine that your 7 years old getting told "fuck you you little Seahawk bitch" and then after the game getting beer poured on you! The same thing happened to my cousin when my uncle took her to Philadelphia to watch the Pittsburgh Penguins take on the Flyers.
Fan violence seems to getting worse in both football and college football, its getting so bad that both associations will beef up security indefinitely. I know that I have repeated what I have said in this post but its hard to just describe the way fans act and present themselves when it comes to sports. I understand being a die-hard fan and that you don't like losing but that's no reason to take it out on the other teams fans and to cause serious injury and even death!
The violent events that sports has seen in the last 4 years is making the MLB, NFL, NBA, and MLS look bad. Seattle has its rivalries. The Seahawks have the 49ers, the Mariners have the A's, Yankees, and Angels, and the Sounders have the Timbers; all these rivalries (except for the Mariners) has nearly seen fan violence escalate to fan brawls. I blame the dramatic intake of alcohol at the sporting events for the violence that fans show. With fans drinking so much at games their thought process of knowing right and wrong begins to fly out the window.
I know I'm going to get bashed for this but for the fans safety every sport association should have security keep an extra eye on the intake that some fans have at games and also have fans of NFL teams take a breathalyzer test before the game and if that fan is over the legal limit then inform security, concession stands, and vendors to not sell that fan anymore alcohol.
Its because fans drink too much and act crazy that these violent events happen. Its tragic to see fans not having fun anymore and instead of being friendly after a tough loss or a great win they have to get into fights that in some cases like last night results in fans getting seriously hurt. To all fans who have experienced fan violence spread the word around to just have fun at the games. There's no need to get into fights with other fans, fighting just shows everyone that you have no class and that you are not a die hard fan you're just an asshole.
My prayers are going out to the victim's of last night's stabbing in Denver and I pray that fans learn to just have fun again and to be friends with other team fans.

Flashback Friday: Blue Friday
Well, I'm going to be writing two flashback blogs including today's and then ill write one tomorrow. Today's flashback isn't that far, because of today's on Russell Wilson on NFL Top 100 which was #51, I think ill write about last year's incredible run by the Seattle Seahawks after their loss to the Miami Dolphins. The Seahawks took to the road again to take on the Chicago Bears with having a dismal road record of 1-6. The Seahawks were able to pull out the win in Chicago, thanks to a terrific overtime opening drive by Russell Wilson. Wilson threw the game winning touchdown to Sidney Rice.
The next week the Seahawks came home to play host to the Arizona Cardinals and the Seahawks pulled all their cards out in this game. The Seahawks set a franchise record for points scored and forced eight turnovers in the game with both Richard Sherman and Bobby Wagner intercepting two passes.
The following week the Seahawks traveled to Toronto to play the Buffalo Bills at Rogers Centre. The Seahawks once again pounded their opponent winning 50-17. Russell Wilson finished the game with 3 rushing touchdowns and a passing touchdown. The next week was the most important game of the season for the Seahawks. If the Seahawks won the game they would secure a spot in the playoffs. The 49ers came into Seattle with a hot Colin Kaepernick and a shot at the NFC West title.
The Seahawks decided to bash them around as they crushed the 49ers 42-13 with the biggest play coming from Richard Sherman, Sherman returned a blocked field goal 93 yards for the touchdown. After the Seahawks won their fifth game in a row against the St. Louis Rams they were on their way to our nations capital for a Wild Card showdown with the Redskins.
That Sunday was the showdown that people wanted to see; Robert Griffin III vs Russell Wilson. Seahawks fans were hoping for this match, that way RW3 could show up RG3. The game did not start out in the Seahawks favor as the NFL's best defense allowed 14 unanswered points in the first quarter and on Twitter Seahawks fans were saying that this game was over, but I was staying positive and tweeting that we were going to win this game. The Seahawks defense did not allow another score after the first quarter and Russell Wilson did his job. The Seahawks scored 13 points in the second quarter to pull with in 1 after the first half.
The second half saw a scoreless third quarter but in the fourth quarter the Seahawks scored a go ahead touchdown after Marshawn Lynch picked up a possible fumble and took it to the house. RG3 suffered an ACL injury along with the Seahawks DL Chris Clemmons suffering the same injury.
The following week the Seahawks faced the Atlanta Falcons in the Divisional round. The Seahawks were able to take the lead with 30 seconds left in the game, but due to a breakdown in the defense the Falcons kicked a game winning field goal. The Seahawks season was over, with the horrible feeling of defeat the whole team was welcomed home by the whole 12th Man nation cheering for them as their bus drove past thousands of fans. The Seahawks are the favorite to win this year's Super Bowl. I can tell you this, I wish football season would start now!
The next week the Seahawks came home to play host to the Arizona Cardinals and the Seahawks pulled all their cards out in this game. The Seahawks set a franchise record for points scored and forced eight turnovers in the game with both Richard Sherman and Bobby Wagner intercepting two passes.
The following week the Seahawks traveled to Toronto to play the Buffalo Bills at Rogers Centre. The Seahawks once again pounded their opponent winning 50-17. Russell Wilson finished the game with 3 rushing touchdowns and a passing touchdown. The next week was the most important game of the season for the Seahawks. If the Seahawks won the game they would secure a spot in the playoffs. The 49ers came into Seattle with a hot Colin Kaepernick and a shot at the NFC West title.
The Seahawks decided to bash them around as they crushed the 49ers 42-13 with the biggest play coming from Richard Sherman, Sherman returned a blocked field goal 93 yards for the touchdown.
