Hate to say it....Pats are going to be tough to beat.
Seattle - New England: Who Wins?
- Thread starter In Ben We Trust
- Start date
while I don't see a laugher like last SB, I expect another 23-20 NE loss in the SB.
Just so the Seahawks win by 1 point, I'll be good!

The Shehawks will have to save football for me again like the Giants did twice.

If Wilson can just manage the game without turnovers the Seahawks will win. Hawks DB's are too physical for the Pats puny receivers and their pass rush will pressure Brady. Hawks defenders swarm and won't allow Brady's dink and dunk crossing patterns like the Colts did.

It's probably going to be a great game
Unlike that pansy Broncos teams from a year ago, the Patriots know how to run the ball.
It's pretty much an impossible game to bet on. Good luck to those who try.

The Patriots will destroy the Seahawks. Green Bay basically laid down after the next to the last Seahawk TD and let them win the game. Green Bay would have given the Patriots a run but the Seahawks are way out of their league and Sherman being hurt will only make it worse.
Seahawks have to play flawless football to win, still don't even know how they manage to survive today.
The Colts are a horrible match up for NE, soft defense, can't rush the passer, and can't run the ball.
Seattle excellent and defense and can run the ball, like a better Baltimore team, and Baltimore gives NE fits

Don't undestand the one down lineman formation... Who ever came up with that should be whipped. Gbayhad seattle until they started to play "defense" if you could call it that. Hard to watch looked like watching the stillers... Mad genius coaching get out of the way.. Mad genius...
I don't know, I see any more Seahawks running off at the mouth I might just be OK with the Pats beating them. And the way they are I am sure they will have much more to say.
Green Bay gave Seattle that game today more than Seattle won it.
If they fiddle fart around in the first half against the Pats like they did today it will be over. Brady wont settle for field goals.

It's kinda hard for me to envision a scenario in which the Pats win. They're a fine team, but simply don't have the horses to beat an elite top-to-bottom defense the way they've beaten the suckass Ds of the AFC East The Ravens field a nice defense and gave them a test - which they passed - but the Seahawks are a whole different animal. All-Pro talent throughout the entire secondary - they might have the best CB, FS, and SS in the game, with a Pro Bowl-caliber #2 CB and a got slot CB. Several edge rushers. A run-plugging line. A ballhawk mentality.
Brady has played in five Bowls. He was mediocre more often than he was great. He muddled through some very average play in the three wins, then fell apart in two fourth quarters against the Giants. His early success came from dumping the ball underneath and not making mistakes. His failures came from later, from winging the ball downfield a la Ben, Eli Manning, Flacco, etc. The Pats out-and-out refuse to throw the ball downfield - Brady's deep accuracy is among the league's worst, and they have no downfield threats on roster. And it's difficult to project a team who CAN'T and WON'T go downfield under any circumstances to score points and win the Bowl. Again, while I respect the Raven defense as pretty good, they're not an elite unit whatsoever and Brady carved up one of the league's worst secondaries.
I can't see many scenarios in which the Pats score with consistency against Seattle. There's a reason they melt down completely at some point in every offseason. They lack a WR corps that will make the secondary have to work. They never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever throw downfield, so there's nothing to pull the DBs off the line and zero chance of hitting a deep ball. Their only run game is a lumbering power game up the gut, which Seattle eats alive. Unless Gronk just up and goes off for a 10-150-2 type of game on Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor, I can't see more than 17-20 points.
But the Seahawks will need 21+ points. Their WR corps is even less threatening, but I can actually envision them hitting a few times down the field. Wilson probably doesn't need to complete more than 15-18 passes, as long as 1-3 extend a drive and set up something. Their run game is simply unstoppable at this point, and the Pats have a bunch of pass rushers at LB who make mistakes in pursuit. Once Lynch and Wilson cross the line - and they should, at will - some 3-yard runs will go for 10+.
As for Wilson. This mf'er is now 10-0 in games against Super Bowl-winning QBs. That **** is unheardof. Safe to say he shows up in big games.
I like Seattle 24-17.

The biggest weakness between the two is Seattle's WRs..................
Seattle's D could very well keep them in this game.
But BCheat has found a new rule to exploit, not sure the Seahawks will win this matchup..........

What a thing to say.
Hope Seattle kicks ***,key of course is to pressure Brady. Hopefully Sherman is good to go.

The Seafags just played the worst game possible......AND WON!!!! Wilson looked like crap till the end of the game then all of a sudden he was flawless. That defense is freakin good 1st and goal and they give up only a fg, that was the game. People can throw whatever stat they want about Wilson but he wouldn't be **** without that defense. We all know the way to beat the Cheats is with a physical defense and hit Brady, well here it is and I think this will be another blow out!

Really good defense beats really good offense virtually every time.
That makes me happy. Go Seahawks

The first quarter is how the Hawks were able to win the game late.

Yea my favorite defensive call of the day was the lets rush 2 linemen and leave a spy that plays pattycake in the center of the field on a 3rd and 19 as if NFL caliber receivers won't be able to find open space somewhere on the field.
