MNF: Sea vs. Phi

Ksyrup · 12-05-2005, 09:08 AM

This should be a great game, if for no other reason than it's supposed to snow in Philly today/tonight with accumulations up to 4-6 inches. Gotta love the snow bowl games.

rkmsuf · 12-05-2005, 09:10 AM

and it's reggie white jersey retirement day. maybe they'll replay his legistative speech during the tribute.

albionmoonlight · 12-05-2005, 09:11 AM

This will probably be a lot of people's first chance to see Seattle. They have to be more under the radar than any probably #1 seed at this time of year than any team in recent memory. Other than Alexander's fantasy stats, what press has Seattle gotten this season?

Butter · 12-05-2005, 09:11 AM

That will probably be the only reason to watch, considering Seattle has clinched their division and Philly is out of the playoff chase for all intents and purposes.

No kidding. Until I watched last week's game, I didn't even know Joe Jurevicius was still in the league, let alone starting for Seattle.

I think people write off Seattle because they've been very good many times before but always fall apart during the season or during the playoffs.

Radii · 12-05-2005, 09:45 AM

A seattle loss would muddy up the NFC playoff picture in terms of bye's a bit more. As a Panther fan, I'm all for this. GoGo Seattle late season choke job!

MizzouRah · 12-05-2005, 09:45 AM

I'll have the hot chocolate ready as I sit down to watch the game at home. As an NFC West viewer, Seattle has been quite impressive this year and definitly underrated.

They already should've lost to the Giants at home... 3 separate times... during a "big game". I think Philadelphia is not good enough to challenge them here, but I don't think they go far in the playoffs this season.

Travis · 12-05-2005, 10:56 AM

Yeah, cause no good team has ever won a game the lucky way (though we can always bring up the speculation that the Giants were spotted a few points earlier in the game that they shouldn't have necessarily had).

As a Seahawks fan, this is a very important game for us to come out and be strong in. We've won the past two games in rather ugly and lucky fashion, and know it. Add in the Dallas and Washington games and we're 3-1 in games where the endings aren't exactly your typical NFL style finishes. We should probably be 2-2 in those games, but I just can't bring myself to feel bad when we've had our fair share of officiating gaffs that have ended up being a major factor in losses over the past few years.

For the season though, it's time to start proving the point we had started to make earlier. Our #1 offense hasn't looked like it lately, and it won't until Holmgren rededicates himself to the run. I for one hope it snows like crazy in Philly to force Holmgren to keep the ball in Alexander's hands and to show everybody just how good he and this offensive line can be. We're automatically better once Jackson is back in the lineup, which is the most encouraging thing about the future of this season, but tonight is a game we have to come out and cement our hold on the #1 seed rather than muddling up the situation.

Ksyrup · 12-05-2005, 12:15 PM

Also, Seattle is 9-2 overall, but 3-2 on the road. They have something to prove generally, but also to themselves.

Yeah because we know how much snow kills a passing game

*cough*tuck rule game*cough*

Pumpy Tudors · 12-05-2005, 01:45 PM

Are they really expecting the snow to be that bad in Philadelphia? I understand that I'm clear across the state from Philly, but if they're getting the same thing that got Pittsburgh yesterday, it's not really going to be that bad. Now, if they're getting something else, well, I can't wait to see this.

Ksyrup · 12-05-2005, 01:47 PM

I'm in Florida, so when I see that there is supposed to be 4-6 inches of snow, I'm just hoping it will be coming down during the game. I don't know how bad it really would be to play in.

They should be playing in Tallahassee right now - we're getting a major line of thunderstorms as I type which has produced a couple of tornadoes so far.

Pumpy Tudors · 12-05-2005, 01:50 PM

I just looked at Weather Underground's report for Philadelphia, and it looks like it's going to be fun in Philly tonight. This is clearly something much stronger than what we had in western Pennsylvania yesterday. Giddyup!

B & B · 12-05-2005, 04:00 PM

Take the points. That is, if you like money.

CraigSca · 12-05-2005, 05:22 PM

This storm is a rarity - usually the larger snow amounts occur north and west of Philadelphia. However, this one should be more out to see than the others and thus living in Delaware, we should see more snow than Philadelphia. Even here they're calling for 3-5 inches in total, with the majority happening after midnight.

I'd love to see a snow game, too, but it looks like a flurry/light snow game, if anything

kingfc22 · 12-05-2005, 08:09 PM

MNF + Snow = SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, it's pretty sad. I say they should call the game before it gets worse. Just let everyone run out on the field and mosh and let the cameras roll. Maybe some drunken college girls will flash.

Hurst2112 · 12-05-2005, 09:57 PM

I think this is the first time in a very long time, that I've had to just stop watching an Eagles game. It's just too painful to watch the team play this pathetically. Off to play some Gothic 2.
