“Why would you want anything in life that is easy? Shoot, man, if you don’t go for it head on, then how can you say you are the best at anything? I think that is the way we are in our society,” Norman said, via Black and Blue Review. “We want things the easy way and stuff to be given to us. We don’t want to work for it. We want things to be handed to us. And I don’t think that’s the way it should be done. I think the way it has been set up is the right way.Go through it the hard way. Challenge yourself to be the best. If you can be the best, beat the best.”

Reading the comments at the bottom of that article reminded me again just how fuging stupid Seahawk fans really are.

This one is funny. Sub  'luckiest' for 'most dangerous' and it's accurate.

"NOBODY wants to see the Seahawks. This team is the most dangerous team in the play-offs and Pittsburgh is second."

Exactly.....his two most dangerous teams needed an epic meltdown by the opposition and a little divine intervention to eek out a win.

Totally agree......Pittsburgh gave the game ball to Joey Porter, ya know.....the coach that was on the field instigating the crap with Adam Jones.  What a shitty franchise!

Screw it. I want things handed to me. A win is a win, it doesn't matter who you beat. In the playoffs, it all takes you to the same place. The other opponents would have been easier, had less attrition, and would have left us in better shape against Arizona. That Lombardi trophy won't be bigger or shine more just because your schedule was "harder". Let everyone call us the worst Super Bowl champs of all time, that would be perfectly fine with me!

Plenty of really good playoff teams have been beaten by a team many viewed as the " easier" opponent.  We're 15-1 and the best team in the NFL.  If we show up and play well, we'll beat anyone.  If we don't, any team in the playoffs can send us packing - just look at the second game vs. the Falcons.

I don't care who we play.  It's the NFL playoffs.  You aren't winning a Super Bowl without beating some good teams.  Just show up, play well, and we'll win it all.

I'm not worried about Cam, Kuechly, Norman, Short, Olsen, Turner, Davis, Star, Norwell, Kalil, Oher, and Shaq. They're gonna be on their game. I am worried about Johnson, Funchess, Ginn, Allen, Remmers and Tolbert though.

Why are you worried about Tolbert? I believe Tolbert could potentially ball out this game with Stewart coming back. I like knowing that if Stewart gets tired we can bring in a bowling ball to continue to tire out the defense. With Seattle playing a physical game yesterday, and having to travel cross-country again, having a running game continue to pound is the key to winning.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
