I agree too. It didn't seem like your offense was affected by it that much. It looked like you made some good adjustments compared to that MNF game. The MNF game almost seemed louder to me though, but maybe it was just my imagination.

the MNF football was everything going wrong possible.


As soon as the Seahawks returned the fumbled for a TD I knew it was over. The crowd was way too into it after that. You have to play such smart football against Seattle to beat them, and try to control the ball.

I'm still trying to figure out how Arizona won there. Arizona is a solid team for sure, but they are no where close to Seattle. If you tell me that Palmer throws 4 interceptions and the Cardinals still win I'd think you are out of your mind. I know Wilson had a terrible game as well, but it's crazy to me that they lost this.

Arizona's defense was absolutely insane that day. Seattle couldn't do anything on offense. They hit a few big plays on offense like that bomb to Floyd for a TD late in the 4th quarter. It also wasn't a must win for Seattle since there was 2 chances to get 1 win and Arizona had to win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Not sure if that had a lot to do with it, but I guess it's a possibility.

this is pretty much what the Niners have to hang their hat on if they are going to win this game. I think it's possible but no better than 40-60

Anybody can be beat anywhere in today's NFL. In the last two years they are 15-1 at home, and 9-7 on the road, so to say they don't hold a significant homefield advantage is not being honest

So they had an off day, it's still a win. Do you have to win every home game by 20+ points to have a homefield advantage? The Saints only beat the Falcons by 6 at home, do they not have a significant homefield advantage? I'd say they do

wasn't that game one of the biggest comebacks in NFL history? I'd say that's impressive as well

Correct. But they can be beat and the 49ers have the best shot in the NFL at this... If Zona can go in there and win in a game that mattered, The niners certainly can.... That's all I am saying... If I am Seattle I am worried about how well Wilson plays... This Niners team has been this far and the Hawks haven't.

I agree with you there, but you can't discount their very real advantage.

I agree. I never said they were not beatable, I'm just saying they have a huge advantage playing at home. IMO I think only NO is a tougher road win

Hypothetical scenario that has absolutely zero to do with this thread. The Seahawks have a definite homefield advantage, whether you choose to recognize it or not. The end.
