This wasn't some top 25 college team against some 1AA team that ended 49-0. It wasn't even the super bowl game last year which was way worse than this. When teams are on "a whole nother level"  the "lower level team" never leads and it's not tied until three minutes before halftime. As for the "they're soft, we'll never win" bit, you're mistaking "soft" with "not built to beat running teams". Having a smaller, more mobile dline and aiming your linebackers more at outside pass rushing than run stuff in the middle will mean that you'll have a great chance against the vast majority of the league but have trouble with the seahawks, 49ers and vikings. I was hoping that they'd move back towards the Howard Green/Raji/Jolly type line that won them a super bowl, but they wanted to go in another direction and will now have to find a way to win that type of game. Don't pretend though that that's impossible just so you can be the most hysterical of the hysterical tough guys. We got smoked by the 9ers two years ago and if Hyde makes that pick last year we beat them. Can they do it? Sure. It'll take some luck, but every team (including the seahawks) needs that too. Will they do it? We have 15 more games at least to find out.</blockquote>
