IT'S FOOOOOOOOOTBALL TIME...
Well, not really, but whatever.
I saw the same CBS Sportsline Power Rankings that David posted and was pleasantly surprised to see the Seattle Seahawks at #4. Remember, the Seahawks NEVER get any national respect, so this is good news.
Folks, it's obvious that even in defeat, the Seahawks impressed a few people January 4 in Green Bay. It's still a damn shame that the Seahawks lost on an INT by that sorry dreadlocked bastard (frick you, Al Harris!!!). But hey, things never go right for Seattle sports fans, so there you go.
Until the 2004 season.
The Seahawks 2004 season, that is.
As far as the 2004 schedule goes, it will be a little tougher. But I expect at least 11 wins from the Seahawks in 2004. The defense will be improved, and the receivers will catch the damn ball. Those two things prevented the Seahawks from making a run at the Super Bowl in 2003. I don't give a damn, you can't tell me that the Seahawks wouldn't have beaten Jake Delhomme and the Carolina Panthers. Or the overrated Chunky Soup kid in Philadelphia.
Oh, here are the teams the Seahawks will play in 2004 (dates/times won't be announced until April)
HOME
Arizona
Atlanta
Buffalo
Carolina
Dallas
Miami
St. Louis
San Francisco
ROAD
Arizona
Minnesota
New England
New Orleans
New York Jets
St. Louis
San Francisco
Tampa Bay
BOLD = My Monday Night Football predictions
Italics = My Sunday Night Football prediction
I know this may sound nuts, but I think the Seattle-New England game should be the Monday Night Football opener, either on the first Thursday of the season or the first Monday. I'd love to see the Seahawks end the Patriots 15-game winning streak. And hey, get the New England game out of the way early, since the weather won't be a huge factor.
When the Rams come to Seattle, that's a MNF game in my book. The two best teams in the NFC West by far. Seattle deserves a MNF game in 2004, so it should happen.
It's so much better to talk the Seahawks when they have some promise, isn't it?
