I rooted for Manning but marvel at that Seattle D. That was amazing.
It will be interesting to watch whether other teams reboot their thinking, come this off-season. Seattle has a great Front 7 and a unique secondary in that the CB's are bigger than the norm, plus the Safties are built like LB's. So they have imposing size and strength everywhere within that tight zone they employ and just pound the stuffing out of the opposing D. Hard to find any daylight in the passing game, let alone run.
Sound be interesting to watch teams in FA and the Draft. Will priorities shift to the D after watching that SB ? Should be interesting to observe. I'm thinking that Seattle D left a lasting impression on many GM's and coaches.
