Their home wins are against KC, Miami and Jacksonville... and they haven't beaten any team above .500 so why would they start now?
Edit: You can make whatever claims you want but I'm not worried about the Bills. Their season is over they aren't playing for anything while the Hawks are playing to win the Division... I don't think the game will even be close.
The Hawks blowing someone out on the road is pretty unlikely.

Miami is up and down this season and they were down when the Hawks played them but the seahawks failed to put them away allowing 17 points in the 4th quarter. Miami relies on Bush and Tannehill to play well and you can see from their record how that is going... Tannehill will probably develop and lead Miami to the playoffs in the future but you guys need a new running back.

They won by the same margin the seahawks lost... So not much of a difference except in the win loss collumn, which is big but not in terms of judging a teams strength. They also won during the cards continued losing streak while the hawks were the first victim of an impressive streak by the cards... Besides, the seahawks have a way different complexion than they did back then.
Originally posted by ZambonerI wouldn't bet a nickel butt plug on Seattle.
Seattle's stout run defense
Buffalo's lackluster passing game
Dome game where the "home" crowd is a non-factor
The fact that the Bills have won only one regular season game in Toronto, last year against the lowly 'Skins.
Russell Wilson gaining more confidence with each game
Give me Seattle by 7.
However, give me the Niners to win the NFC West.

And they won... My point. When they don't have a good running game they lose and the sub 500 record shows.
The difference between a 5-7 team and a 7-5 team are a few plays. I wouldn't count the Dolphins out in San Fran this week; they've played tough in every game this year except the season opening loss to the best team in the league and an inexplicably poor performance against Tennessee.
Originally posted by tomtom232I guess we'll see this week; the Cardinals have lost 8 straight and are in Seattle where the Hawks are unbeaten. I assume you're figuring the Seahawks will win by 50 or so.

Originally posted by no1marauderI don't count them out. I hope they win then the Hawks bhave a loss to give if they win against the niners in their game since the niners probably won't beat the pats in foxborough.

The difference between the seahawks being unbeaten is only a handful of plays so what's your point?
Originally posted by no1marauderThe Seahawks have had struggles on the road, but the win last week in Chicago was impressive.
The Bills are 3-2 at home v. Seattle's 2-5 on the road.
Playing at Ralph Wilson in December is no picnic.
No doubt part of the reason they're playing in Toronto.
I'd write that down as a probable "L" for the Seahawks.
Don't bet on that.
As for the Seahawks winning the NFC west, that depends on how the 49ers finish too. The head to head on the 23rd could be decisive.
Originally posted by richjohnsonYes, it could. It has become a highly anticipated game... probably will be the game of the week by a fair margin.
