As soon as I write off Seattle they run off four straight.  But then it's been a slightly streaky year with teams like the Texans starting 0-3 and winning 9 straight, Carolina starting 6-2 and losing 5 in a row, the Cowboys looking dead as a doornail then winning 5 straight.  The Superbowl champion Eagles have been one of the few consistent teams (consistently disappointing) but of all the remaining playoff contenders I have the most trouble reading the 'Hawks and Steelers.  Dallas has also looked pretty good and pretty awful, though their light remaining schedule promises a playoff berth (progress considering they've only won one playoff game in nine years.)  

Anyway, 9-7 this week (I had myself as 8-8 but I put the Saints as a loss for some reason (they won.. duh!) thus the update to 9-7), 128-78-2 all told.

I don't know how far it's going to take them, which is the important part, of course, but Seattle's offense is BORING.

I love that Seattle is winning with an old school formula, defense and lots of
running the ball. People have a hard believing it works but it still can.
It is painful to watch at times though.

A stunningly awful 6-10 on the week and an absolutely horrible 0-6 v Hagerman.  For the season I'm 126-80-2 and 18-20 v Hagerman with three weeks to go.

Yeah, Seattle might win by putting their opponents to sleep but they do lead the league in rushing yards and Russell Wilson is complimenting that with quietly efficient numbers (his highest QBR ever despite fewer passing yards.)   Their bend but don't break defense has given up the sixth fewest points.
