As soon as my Seahawks take care of the Panthers today, I can rest easy knowing we'll be playing in Phoenix next, instead of having to go to Green Bay. Has a wild card ever hosted the conference championship before, meaning the two wild cards both advanced that far to meet each other? Green Bay was WC#5 to Seattle WC#6 this year.

... I found the postings by Pack fans to be amusing (coingate, OT rules need to change...
Well, poop.
I wouldn't say our offense isn't as good this year, just that it's different. We lost our star running back and his rookie replacement. But Wilson turned into a pocket passer that defied all expectations. He set NFL records.
But so did Newton.
In the end, it was a great, albeit lopsided game. We dominated the second half, but not as much as they dominated the first half, both in shutouts. Weird. Take away any one of Carolina's early TD's off our mistakes, and it'd have been even at the end. That would have been cool.
This isn't nearly the kick-in-the-nuts of the last Superbowl. I wasn't expecting to win at the last second. I spent most of the game preparing for it, even though I knew we still had a chance and that, either way, it wouldn't be as ugly as the first 3 minutes indicated.
Going to the Divisional Round of the playoffs for a fourth straight year is not a disappointment. I've been a Seattle fan my entire life, so I know disappointment.
How bout them Seahawks hahahaAs soon as my Seahawks take care of the Panthers today, I can rest easy knowing we'll be playing in Phoenix next, instead of having to go to Green Bay.

That ref got LUCKY that it didn't affect who won the toss. How do you NOT flip it when you have one friggin' job to do?
As for OT rules, I completely agree. Seattle won our NFC Champ last year on a one possession OT, also. Fans deserve an OT that gives both teams the ball; no matter what the first team does. I agree that a defensive score is still a sudden game-ender, though.
How bout them Seahawks hahaha

They got plucked, plucked reeeel good. Game was not even close after 1st half.
first quarter...to be factual, which i know David you strive towards at all times.
ipse
...No, you should not have a right to the ball if your defense allows a TD ... why? cause your defense just allowed a TD, that's why.
Fans deserve the old fashion, original 1st one who scores wins rule. The pros are not college. This was the fairest process.
Some teams are defensive juggernauts, some teams are offensive juggernauts. Some teams are balanced. Either way, it all balances out during a game. Not so in overtime. There is a reason everyone always wants the ball first on OT, and the one that does has a statistical history of an advantage.
Maybe now that it affected the Packers again, the NFL will change it again.
Well last time was Minnesota (Farve) ...

Unless you watched the fourth quarter. In the end, Seahawks lost by a touchdown.
Seahawks were losing last year's NFC title game 16-0 at the half. Wilson had a 0 passer rating. We were dominated. We won that game.
<snip>.
I was actually thinking of last year's NFC Championship game, when the Seahawks rallied to comeback and lead, the Packer's rallied and tied, and then we scored a TD on the opening drive of OT.
So that's two consecutive years of the Packers losing the playoffs to a first-drive OT by the other team. I guarantee the NFL will do something about that.
