It never worked... except when the hawks obliterated everyone in 05. That super bowl was complete horseshit; you could visibly see the momentum shift as TD after TD was called back.
The 05 team was better than this year's team, imo... the hawks offense has been extremely shaky all year. 05 steam rolled people.
Now the late season '12 hawks... were out for blood 
Dont agree.. I think Seattlites look at the 05 team with rose colored glasses.... They weren't all that great. the 05 team had to play perfect all game to win... this team can fuck up, and still come back second half and roll over extremely talented teams.
Hasselbeck was a mediocre QB at best, and if his mind was even just a little off, he sucked ass. Wilson has much better composure and potential IMHO. And the D is no where close IMHO... corners on this team are on a whole nother level..., neither is the running game... Shaun A saw a player about to hit him, instant dive and submarine. Lynch puts his head down and runs over the opponent.
Don't you remember how often our D back then would go into prevent and we'd watch the opponent overcome a 20+ point deficit in the 4th quarter and win? So frustrating.
But yeah... the SB was BS... you know it's BS when the NFL publically apologizes for the officiating. Lol.
Just don't tell Earl that, he'll start melting down all over the place that his precious Stealers may have been handed a gift.
Oh well, such is life.
