The Seahawks had Denver intimidated from the first play. And they never let up.
You can scheme a great offense but great defense takes pure violence.

It helps that the officiating changes from the playoffs on to give the advantage back to the defense.
Still, the Seahawks were the more complete team and should have won. Fuck a Manning, too.WELCOME TO THE PHILA. SPORTS FANISM. WIN, WE LOVE YA, LOSE,WE LOVE YA, BUT YOU'RE A DICK FOR LOSING.

The classic Philly sports fan mindset. It's not right or wrong - it is what it is. Both a shame and a mantle of pride. Love and hate in constant turmoil.

They covered those quick screens
so well, it forced manning to hold the ball longer and their d just destroyed him all game....actually looked more like Eli than Peyton out there, tipped balls flying around, overthrown picks...Comment

They had defensive linemen running down receivers and running backs from behind before they got 2 yards.Obscenity is the last refuge of an inarticulate motherfucker.Comment

Agreed. The whole "defense wins championships" is a bit overplayed and oversimplified. I read that 6 of the last 8 super bowl champions had the statistically lesser defense of the 2 teams. But there is no overcoming a defense as imposing as the Seahawks was last night.Comment

balance wins championships
You need strong units in all 3 phases and ideally with at least one dominant one. Seattle had a competent offense that didn't turn over the ball.Originally posted by common wealth View Post
EDITED to add: They also returned a kickoff for a TD.Last edited by JuTMSY4; 02-03-2014, 06:52 PM.Comment

That's actually my point--it gave the better defense even more of an edge. Earlier in the regular season, the over-officiating of defensive plays was more of an equalizer.WELCOME TO THE PHILA. SPORTS FANISM. WIN, WE LOVE YA, LOSE,WE LOVE YA, BUT YOU'RE A DICK FOR LOSING.
