Best team in NFC?

[Hank Kingsley]

Yep...w/o AP it kinda exposes the good, but young WRs in MIN, no true WR1.

What happened a couple of years ago probably doesn't mean much today...I do agree SEA is not quite as good today, but they still have plenty of guys that have done it on the big stage...that's largely why I would give them the edge vs either DAL or MIN right now.

And the only major differences on Dallas are the 2 rookies. I'd be pretty sure Dallas could run on them, they can pretty much run on anybody, Week 1 vs NYG not withstanding.

Murray had a big game against them back then. Elliot would likely do similarly.

I'm still saying Minn.
Today I say Dal/Sea tied for second.
If Dallas wins and Seattle has another terrible offensive day I give the 2nd place edge to Dallas. Seattle needs to start controlling the ball and scoring more in order to give that D a rest. Otherwise they'll be toast come pkayoff time. They've already had theiir bye and thier back ups aren't what they used to be.

FWIW...I don't think any of them (SEA, DAL, MIN) are "bad" picks.

SEA had a tough game on the road vs a DIV foe that has a pretty good DEF and they were desperate...most teams that put up 6 points on the road lose so that fact that they were in that game says a lot about them overall.

IF SEA goes to NO and put up less than 20 pts I think we have to knock them down a notch or two.

Admittedly impressed (especially @ GB and CIN) but I need to see more from DAL to say they are the best team in the NFC, or they would beat SEA on the road right now.

that's cool....best team right now means very little

Agreed...one reason took me this long to post in this thread....kind of like what's the point in week 8, but slow morning I decided to throw my 2 cents in anyway.

I really thought Minny offense was exposed as the popgun offense it really is last week. It puts no fear in anybody.

And a couple of years ago Dallas went into Seattle and beat them pretty good. I think they are better now and Seattle is not nearly as good as they were then.

Hindsight 20/20.

Seattle turned it around eventually, but they were not playing well when they played Dallas a couple years ago. They were 3-3 at this point of the season.

Most definitely in the past, but I believe this current version is better than that team.

And Seattle's offense has declined so could they stop Dallas completely or outscore them if they can't?

There's the rub.....

And we will know more after Dallas plays Philly and Minny. Maybe I'm wrong about them....

Homers are fine but if you're going to talk about that game, least have a clue what you post.

Dallas was 4-1 and Seattle was 3-1 going in to that game. Seattle won the turnover battle 2-1 and jumped out 10-0 on Dallas. All Dallas did from there was 401 total yards to 206, ran for 170 plus on the ground and converted 10 of 17 3rd downs. Yet with 8 minutes to go in the game, Seattle took a 3 point lead on a FG and Dallas punched them in the mouth to win by 10. That was an ass whipping to a team that hardly ever losses at home and to the leagues best defense.

now that's 20/20 hindsight

Can you read?

I said at this point - today - after six games - after the Dallas game - and the STL game, Seattle was 3-3.

4-1-1 > 3-3.

Stop being so desperate to argue with me.

that would be you sonny boy....all you

nice spin...

 

[SonnyCID]

Lol at how important that game obviously was to you.

 

[PDay8810]

but they were not playing well when they played Dallas a couple years ago

3-1, defending champs and a huge home consecutive wins going.

they didn't play well that day and it had everything to do with Dallas

seattle homers remain the worst on the hoop

How was I clueless? My comment to Hank wasn't even about Dallas you insecure little fag. It was about how good Seattle had been after six weeks.

I'm sure you think you're right. But at this point in the season, Seattle is better than they were at this same point in 2014. You can twist, spin and deny. But it's true.
