There's nothing like winning a playoff game, at home. In the snow. Beautiful, fluffy fairy-tale snow. It looked like so much fun.
That's the way football should be played.
The very best part of the game was the fact that Ryan Grant managed to redeem himself from his two fumbles -- fumbles that allowed the Seahawks to be ahead by 14 points in the first 4 minutes of the game -- by gaining 201 rushing yards and scoring 3 touchdowns.
In the post game interview, Bret talks about how, after those two fumbles, he told Grant that "It would work out". He sounded vaguely surprised that he was right. And extremely thrilled that they did.
Those two fumbles could have cost us the game and the season. They could have been something that Grant would never have recovered from and never have left behind. Now those fumbles will be listed as things that he "overcame". I love that.
The game rocked.
Looking forward to next week. Even if we end up in dreaded Dallas....
