Marshawn Lynch. Sell now before the hammy acts up again and they shut him down until the playoffs.
HAHA, Seahawks in the playoffs....
Humor me and list the teams in the NFC that are going to get at least 9 wins beyond GB, ATL, ARI, CAR, and NYG.
There is nothing definitive about this but I could see these teams getting 9 wins.Dal
St. L
Minn
Philly

Sea has just as good a shot as any of them, but it's not like nobody else in the Confernce will be competing for that spot.
Also, you're making an assumption that any of these teams will need 9 wins to beat Sea out of a spot.
I think the teams you listed are iffy to get more than 8-9 wins (as things stand now). Similar discussions popped up last year when SEA started slowly (3-3) and some people were ready to write them off. SEA is 2-3 but lost to two undefeated teams on the road (and another tough road loss to the Rams). I am not ready to say they are done just yet.Historically, they hardly ever lose at home and have been about .500 on the road since Wilson got there. They still have 6 home games left (CAR, ARI, SFO, PIT, CLE, STL). You have to think they probably win 5 of those. That gets them to 7 wins. Their remaining road games are at SFO, DAL, MIN, BAL, and ARI. I think they win at least 3 games there (maybe 4 if Romo is still out). That gets them to 10 wins. As already mentioned, I have a hard time right now seeing DAL, STL, PHI, MIN, or WAS getting to 10 wins. IMO, SEA has the most talented team out of all those teams (especially with Dez and Romo out of action for DAL). Maybe DAL gets healthy. Maybe PHI starts playing better. Maybe MIN is a better team than their record indicates. But for now, I still see SEA as making the playoffs.
