Miller and Unger were both listed as probable, Browner and KJ Wright are both out, along with you know who. I don't foresee a big problem beating the Giants, but this is the NFL and anything can and does happen. We've got to get a good pass rush on Eli.

I'm eager to see how the team responds after giving one away in SF.

Agreed add in quick WR, and the love of WR screens and we are built for bad weather.

I'm thinking blow out-
42-10 Hawks.

Ok But Heavy Snow? Name the last game we played in that was Heavy Snow? Last time I remembered there was a game against the Chiefs way back... where it poured so hard that it pretty much neutralized the game plan for both teams. I am just saying if the game elements are so bad it may even the playing field. Count in the fact the long travel distance. The benefit we have is a shifty and escape artist in RW and
Eli can't scramble to save his Citizen ECO Drive. Yes of course we can play in Bad Weather... but what about really bad Weather? Snow Storms are no joke

We had a mild debate about inclement weather conditions when it had appeared that we might get some snow in Seattle for the Saints game. My position is that if we are decidedly better and already have an advantage against an opponent, why throw in a variable like the weather into the equation? All it takes is one fumbled punt or botched center snap and we could lose a game that was kept close due to the weather.

Or a fumbled punt or snap could turn a loss into a win, a close win into a comfortable one, or a comfortable one into a blow out.. This team has the tools to not only win in the snow, but to thrive IMHO, worrying about the weather costing a team a game is foolish IMO because BOTH teams play in the same elements, the better prepared, more explosive, more ball hawk team will win 99 out of a 100 times ( yes I know that is an exaggeration). If you can win because of talent in the sun and perfect elements, you can do the same in inclement weather. The odds do NOT change, UNLESS it is a situation where a team is playing in Tahiti for 4 straight years and then is dumped in GB, all teams play in the cold, the rain, the snow, etc, complaining about a team that plays all their games at home in the elements having to play a game in the elements makes zero sense to me...

Line: Seahawks -7 (even), Total: 41.5
The folks at NY.com (the 'True Jersey') all predict that the Hawks are going to win. Got to love it!

Weren't they also predicting high winds?

I'm hoping that the pissed off team shows up.

I didn't see that in the forecast. Either way, its too warm for snow. Hopefully you are right RD. Cause I missed the HW forecast. Anything that takes away Eli's passing game is fine with me!
