    It wasn't the silent count as much as it was the "only work one side of the field" and "let's debut a defense we've tried to avoid in live scenarios to keep it secret" strategy that ended up doing them in.

    And the flawed "play a backup Tackle who they subsequently cut halfway through the season" strategy. Come to think of it, it's almost like they were handicapping themselves on purpose.

    That sickened me that we played so scared against Seattle week one with a QB like Rodgers. Last night, if the QB for the Cards was any good he would have had a 60 yard TD thrown against Richard Sherman. The throw was bad but it still should have been a 40 yard completion... but then the receiver dropped the ball.

    Michael Bennett declared the Seahawks defense the "greatest ever" last night. Of course the Seahawks fans rally around that, talking about how their recent dominance (since the Chiefs game) is so great.

    They then say that injuries aren't an excuse despite the QBs they played. Of course, then you bring up the games vs. the Chiefs and Cowboys, and it's because there were injuries.

    If there's any team and fans that I'd love to see get their bubble burst, it's Seattle.
