    To think Brandon Browner isn't even playing yet for Seattle. He's a beast.

    Washington won the NFC East last season, then got beat by Seattle in the wild card round of the playoffs.

    You might remember that game -- some guy named Griffin injured his knee.

    Yeah.

    Not the same Griffin. Not the same team.

    If I was an opposing coach, I would rather play a road playoff game in Green Bay, San Fran, Atlanta, Dallas, NYC... Basically anywhere but Seattle. If the road to the Super Bowl goes through Seattle, it probably stops in Seattle.

    The Broncos haven't been tested in the slightest.
    They've matched up very well with two teams that have a lot of holes.

    If someone is debating who the best team in the NFL is after two weeks, it quite simply is either the Broncos or the Seahawks.

    That could very easily change next week.

    Based on what we saw last night, there's every reason to think that... But now they need to go 5-3 on the road to get home field. If they get it, I'm guessing they'll go to the Super Bowl. If they have to travel to Green Bay or Atlanta to get to the Super Bowl, that may prove to be a lot more difficult.

    But Seattle seems a significantly more difficult stadium to play than almost any other stadium in the NFL.

    The Bears don't deserve anyone's respect.
    Patriots have struggled mightily to beat teams helmed by rookie quarterbacks.
    Fuk both teams.

    Seems like Seattle's game would travel pretty well. Hard-nosed D that keeps it pretty simple without a lot of intricate substitutions, physical running game and a pretty straightforward offensive scheme that avoids confusion. In two playoff road games last year, they won one and went to the last second on the other. They're going to be death to beat in the playoffs up there, but I'm not buying that they're only a home team.

    Not saying that. Between the noise and the potential for wet weather, that stadium makes them even tougher at home.
