"We want the ball, and we're gonna score"
Those were the famous last words from Seahawks' QB Matt Hasselbeck at the coin toss of Seattle's OT loss to Green Bay in 2004.
Now, he'll have a chance for redemption on the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field.
While the Seahawks come into this NFC Divisional Playoff as an eight-point underdog, they have a lot going for them. A strong defensive effort against Washington in the wild card round has many thinking that they can handle Brett Favre and the high-powered Packer offense. The brilliant play of CB Marcus Trufant will likely go a long way in deciding that fate.
A few betting trends to consider:
- Seattle is 7-2 SU in its last 9 games
