Playing on Sunday at 1

Besides the Seahawks playing at 10 AM from their perspective, how else does it play in our favor? I think Ron has mentioned during the regular season he's more comfortable preparing his team for a 1:00 Sunday game than any other time. Maybe because it's normal routine, idk. In 2013 we played the Niners in the same time slot in the divisionals, but let's be honest it was our first playoff game since 2009, and we were playing the defending NFC champs. In hindsight it was a tall order. We might still have the defending NFC champs on our plate this week, but the team should be more acclimated to the playoffs as this is the third year in a row they've made it. How comfortable are you that this is a Sunday 1 PM as opposed to a Saturday prime time?

If i recall, the Niners were an anomaly with the early kickoff for a west coast team.

I guess it's perspective and mindset.  Seattle feels like they have house money and all the pressure is on Carolina. If that helps you ok sure.

I would have liked a Sat kick for a shorter odd day week for Seattle. It's so late in the year that the edge may lie in healthy players and ball control and protection more than anything else.

crap, it really is rain and snow on sunday. 

out of all days, why this sunday? 

Cam hates this weather ... look for a heavy dose of stewart/tolbert/CAP ...

There is very little chance of any significant precipitation on Sunday afternoon.  I doubt our gameplan will change one bit.

    • 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. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • 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.
