In progress: Seattle making the Bears look silly
Seattle is just killing the Panthers today, and they have completely shut down Steve Smith (except for the TD he scored on a punt return.) This does not look like the team I saw manhandle the Bears last Sunday. Watching the game, I had an epiphany. If you double- and triple-team the other team's star player and only offensive threat, your chances of winning will be much higher. Go figure. Seattle certainly didn't use any Chris Thompsons in single coverage, that much is for certain. And riddle me this, Batman. Would it have killed Jake Delhomme to poop his pants in Chicago instead of waiting till he got to Seattle? Jeez.
Pittsburgh looked good in whipping the Broncos today, too. Jake the Snake is back, baby! It should be a good Super Bowl. A number six seed in the AFC versus the number one seed from the NFC. It should be an interesting game. The only matchup that could have been more interesting is a matchup involving a team that starts with a C, ends with an O, and in the middle is HICAG.
