Do you remember the game the Seattle Seahawks played against the Cardinals on Sunday? You know the 58-Nil beat-down handed out by the defense and Marshawn Lynch? Yeah, you might as well forget about it. I say this for two reasons. The first is that in a game like that, where everything goes your way, it doesn’t tell you much about who your team is. The defense absolutely dominated and benefited from a little luck. Lynch had lanes that you could have driven a truck through. Russell Wilson didn’t have to do much of anything. There is really only one thing of importance you can take from that game, and that’s the win. That brings me right to the next reason that you can go ahead and forget about that game: the Seahawks have placed themselves in a situation where every game is huge. A win this week keeps the Seahawks in the chase for the NFC West crown regardless of what happens in San Francisco’s game. The Seahawks also need to win to keep themselves ahead in the wild card push, with the Redskins, Vikings, and Cowboys nipping on their heels.
