“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.

      Bam Martin-Scott: Most likely UDFA to stick?

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I have never seen this cat play a single snap of football, BUT, I really hope that we're not counting on a 25 yo, UDFA who played 6 years of college ball to suddenly replace our starting LB.  Sounds to me like Dean Jones needed a story and didn't have anything else to write about. Wishing the guy luck though, cool nickname.

      Legette admits taking his catching for granted a little his rookie season

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'll go 1 further than that. This 23 year old had spent 4 years as a middle of the pack college player before exploding onto the scene as a 5th year senior, then we have enough faith in him to trade up 1 spot so that we can get a 5th year option and guarantee his salary. So in about a year's time he went from a mid round pick to a first rounder. It would be hard NOT to let that go to your head! I'm going to trust that the staff know what they're doing with XL and not give him too much crap about being a dumbass LAST season, as long as he doesn't continue to be one.

      Bam Martin-Scott: Most likely UDFA to stick?

      By Icege · Posted

      From Brugler's scouting report... Tavareon “Bam” Martin-Scott picked up his nickname because of the fireworks celebration he typically receives to celebrate his birthday. He grew up playing pee wee football in Fort Wayne, Ind., but developed late and was mostly a part-time player until his senior year at Snider High (alma mater of Jessie Bates). He posted 87 tackles and 6.0 sacks as a senior in 2018, but it wasn’t enough to put him on the recruiting radar. A no-star recruit, he played two seasons with Dodge City (Kan.) Community College and then received several SEC offers. His playing time and production gradually increased each season for the Gamecocks, and he put intriguing flashes on film. Martin-Scott is a good-sized athlete, with pursuit speed to match races to the perimeter. He competes with a banger mentality to pinball off blocks and stay determined on his path to the ball. Overall, Martin-Scott freelances a tad too much with inconsistent steps in coverage, but he is a classic run-and-hit linebacker who likes to play loose and chase plays — necessary ingredients for NFL special teams. grade: Free Agent
