It's just going to come down to the holding calls. If they can hold on every single play like they did last year Seattle will be very good. If they actually enforce it this year like they say they are going to then Seattle is in trouble. They held every single down last year and just dared the refs to throw the flag knowing they can't do it on every play. Their season comes down to that.

I think the reason the NFL made a rule enforcement change is that it didn't like the way the Seahawks were putting the refs in a compromising position like that taking advantage of a gray area. Supposedly, it's not a judgement call anymore so we'll see if that really plays out.

Although this doesn't pertain to this thread I looked at the schedule and saw that we have our first match up with Seattle at home on a short week. Redskins on Sunday then Seattle on Thursday. Although they are both home games it leaves less time for injury recovery and less time to gameplan. If we can beat them on a short week, we can beat them anywhere (including their bs stadium). Looking forward to this match up the most it should be the usual defensive blood bath type of game I'll be there

Should be an interesting matchup I'm not a fan of the packers but I'm a fan of Aaron Rogers. He has the skill to fit passes into that defenses tight windows.

The referee crew working tonight has called the most illegal contact penalties of all the crews something close to a 9.5 vs 4 average per game in the preseason.

If a plane crashes into c-link yes. If not, probably no. A tie perhaps???
