I'm not arguing that Denver is better than Seattle, but Seattle isn't exactly a slouch either. They have one of the top ranked offenses and their D was ranked 8th coming into our game.

It's funny how fickle the media is week to week. After week 1 the Bears were bums, after week 2 they were on the rise again. After week 1 Dallas was headed to the playoffs, now they're headed back to the basement.

All the Skins can do is go out and beat the next team on the schedule, which they've done so far. I'm just wondering what excuses will pop up when we go on the road and beat Denver. Should be interesting.

The media is one thing, how many of these writers really know the nuts and bolts of football?

What you really have to focus on are my post's Matty the ones where I said I wasen't impressed with Seattle regardless of their record and said we should beat them!

So far as much as I have been in opposition of our offensive scheme I have predicted all 3 victories, reason? I knew the Bears had no QB, and the Hawk's have no coaching, as for Dallas my thought was they would beat us except for the fact that all our termoil that week I could see us winning on something out of the ordinary, although I thought it would be a defensive score it still was out of the ordinary.

What will they say after we beat Denver? Let's not put the cart before the horse here, I think we will come out of this game with much more media respect win or lose, I feel we will give them a good game and in doing so we will start to gain respect, but I don't see us winning this one, it's not by any means impossible, but it will be a tough one to come away with a W in mile high.

I do hope you are right though, I can handle being 3-1!
