NFL Postseason Megathread: Playoffs in the Post-Orton Era

[CountDeMoney]

I've always known I hated the Seachickens, and really who wouldn't, but I never realized how much until today.

What particular epiphany occurred today to allow you to realize how much?  What specifically happened today that granted you such insight into understanding that, until this day, you had no idea you still had more hatred than ever displayed before?

I said so in the part of my post you deleted.  I knew I wanted the Pats to win (actually the Chickens to lose) no matter how dirty that made me feel, but as the game went into the fourth quarter I was getting physically ill at the thought of Seattle winning.  I was more excited for Amandola's go ahead TD than I was for the long TD Larry Fitzgerald scored to give the Cardinals the lead over the Steelers.  Then the Seattle drive was excruciating; after the bullshit juggling catch by Kearse I broke at least one piece of furniture and at least one toe.

You gave us the how, but not the why.  We know you're an unhinged goof, we want to know why.

Kind of trippy that the entire Seattle receiver corps were free agents.

Is that because they spent all their cap on Lynch and the secondary?

Its because of injuries and shipping one guy out.

The Salary Cap Fairy is going to pummel the shit out the Seahawks, and that's on top of the usual "Raiding o' the Super Bowl Rosters" free agent tradition.
 
Combine that with the damage to the collective psyche in committing the biggest strategic blunder short of getting involved in a land war in Asia will have on the team and the fan base, this may be the last you hear from the Seahawks for a good, long while. 

They're going to have to get that Offensive Coordinator out of town;  it hasn't even been 24 hours, and he's poison already.

Yeah, Wilson is going to go from 700,000 a year to about 20 million a year.  Not sure what the capologist is going to do with that one.

[Tonitrus]

There is news that they've offered Lynch some money to stick around too...but honestly, I'd be surprised if he stays with the Hawks even for 2015.  Not that the Seahawks don't want him...but he might be disgruntled enough to force a trade.

He should subscribe to Wilson's twitter feed and the read inspirational messages about pushing through the tough times.

[MadImmortalMan]

If he'd cut his hair, he might have seen that car coming.

I see more people talking about the ads than about the game itself, in my Facebook stream.

Hard to blame Wilson for pulling the trigger at this point

Same here, but the vast majority of my active FB friends are either women or fans of Kentucky sports only.

I assume that most people who watched primarily for the ads were disappointed this year?

@dps It would seem so, yes.
