Strung Out
The Packers were a pre season favorite, among them anyway, in the NFC but, the Seahawks owned them from beginning to end. The final score wasn't close...and it wasn't that close.
Everything they 'lost' in the off-season, a DB, a D lineman, a WR, they seemed to have filled and then some.
They have a beast, arguably the best in the league, at RB and a really good O line.
They have a super star at WR.
Solid at TE
Their special teams is more than good enough.
And Russel Wilson is everything you want in a QB; makes good, quick decisions, has a clue how to slide, can run, durable, is focused and has something to prove; that he can be a top NFL qb.
Add to that a coach who is clearly in charge, has nothing better to do and is revered.
In addition to a super star corner, they have other guys that would start for most teams.
They have a star LB and other guys who are plenty good.
They have found a way to keep the depth on D line. The Packers wanted to wear them down and got wore out in the process.
Oh, and they obliterated one of the best offenses in league history in the Super bowl.
On D, They have that feel of the 2000 Raven's and '85 Bears; they can't wait until you get the ball.
They're not precise like the Pats where they win games by making less mistakes than you and making a few more plays than you. They beat you up, run you over and could care less about mistakes. You're the one that is stuck lining up for the next play. They can't wait.
Yeah, it's early but, I'm predicting 19-0 and another trophy. I think they're just that much better, in every way, and more than good enough in the areas they're not the best. They have the attitude. The team thing. All of it.
How good are they?
