Is this the best you can do?

A QB with the worst quarterback rating in superbowl history,a team that had fewer total yards on the field.

The refs calling back TD after TD and even stevie wonder couldve saw the game was fixed.Yeah you sure told us so.........

I shouldve known the bettis story all but guranteed the stealers a win."STEALERS"

I thought superbowls were to be played on a nutral site,they were giving away terrible towels to any fan who wanted one at the door.And were selling stealer XL cahpion merchandise before the game even kicked off.

But no seahawk towels no seahawk XL championship merchandise......this game was fixed and everyone saw it.

If more than 2,000 people showed up to support the Seahawks, people might have made towels for the Seahawks. However, no one really cares about the Seahawks so why would they waste money making blue tissues when no one would want them???

I was listening to NPR the other day and they had a writer on from Seattle... cracking up about how the men where going to cry when the Seahawks lost... I thought he was joking... I thought wrong.

Not smack, just just something from my experience.

If "they" were giving away terrible towels, it could have easily been some other group doing it. When we went to Houston, the Boston Globe was giving Patriots stuff to everyone on the street - even offered stuff to us. We declined. I wished that a business in Charlotte would have stepped up and done something similar - maybe next time.

Detroit was a neutral site - but it just so happened that it was a 5 hour drive away for Pittsburgh natives. That's just bad luck. When it's in Arizona, Seattle will have the advantage over the East Coast teams, so if Seattle makes it, their fans should take advantage of it.

You possibly could be right,the towels were handed out inside the stadium to any fan that wanted them.

It could have been a private group,but watching the thousands of towels being swung around on TV just made me sick to my stomach when my buddy called my cell from the game and told me.

Pittsburgh outrushed your team. That's a more telling stat. And Roethlisberger had 5 3rd down completions for first downs to keep drives alive. He also ran one on 3rd down for a first as well. All in all the team was 8-15 on 3rd down conversions while Seattle finished 5-17. They got some yards, but couldn't sustain enough drives to get to the endzone often enough.

LMMFAO at "giving away terrible towels to any fan who wanted one"!!!!!!!!!

Buddy I was there, and I can assure you nobody was giving terrible towels away. They had them for sale, but they were $10. This is the superbowl man, you think Steelers fans just jumped on the bandwagon? Dude, 3 Rivers and now Heinz Field have had a sellout streak longer than the Seahawks have been in fuging existance. Terrible towels were hard to come by in Pittsburgh the week before the game. No Steelers fan showing up would hardly be without one. All those terrible towels you saw? Ninety nine percent of them were brought in by the fans, including my own.

The problem was that Steeler nation is 20 times bigger than Seahawks nation, and they carried that ratio into Ford Field. Pittsburgh fans bought the tickets, stayed at the hotels, and showed up to support their team. The Seahawks had home field all through the playoffs, but their fan base just wasn't big enough to help them much in the Superbowl.

Why didn't the Seahawks just come up with their own "towel" knockoff?

They coulda been the:

Caffeinated Kerchiefs

Boeings Bandanas

Microsoft Manes

Drizzling Dusters

Rain Rags

Oh, the possibilities are endles!!!! lol

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
