Only playing 2 games in 6 weeks tends to do that. See e.g., Lamar.

That said, the quality of play last night was surprisingly good.

Seems awfully convenient to hand wave problems he’s exhibited since day one.

Burrow is the better QB right now and it’s not even close imo

Because they beat my team.

That's pretty much it.

Oh, and after beating my team in the 2014 NFCCG, they had the gall to throw an interception from the 1 yard line and let Brady get another title. They deserve universal hatred for that.

Everyone hates young cocky upstart teams. Especially when their fans come across as johnny-come-lately hipsters who don't really know anything about football - which isn't really true.

Seahawks have the most aggressively obnoxious marketing I’ve ever seen. It’s like they hired everyone from the Microsoft PR agency of the early 00’s.

What I’m saying is, Russell Wilson is basically Clippy.

It's too exhuasting to hate every team that consistently has success, so I've largely latched onto the Seahawks and Packers as constant contenders that I'm okay with.

Russell Wilson is my favorite QB to watch and I relate to Rodgers being estranged from his family.

I’m not going to pretend the 49ers are as long-suffering as teams that have never won a Super Bowl or haven’t won one for fifty years. That being said, there’s a huge difference between having a Super Bowl win in the last ten years and continuously being a contender for decades while going from one all-time great quarterback to another and a team that, if I recall correctly, has one of the ten worst win percentages over the last twenty years while featuring such highlights as:

J. T. O’Sullivan, Trent Dilfer, and Troy Smith at QB
Mike Nolan, Mike Singletary, and Jim Tomsula as coach
“We want Carr”
The Jim Harbaugh and Jed York saga
etc.

My dislike of them has gone down quite a bit, and Russ is insane to watch, but yeah, the 12th man poo poo from a few years ago was the most annoying poo poo ever.

Also they had a bunch of bad gimmick posters, and the one who was truly cool I think died on my birthday.

I'll be honest, if the Seahawks and Vikings are out, and as long as the Steelers and Patriots are also out, I don't really care who wins the Super Bowl. Even the Cowboys yes.

The way the Seahawks beat teams probably adds to the hate as well. If your team is blown out, you can at least shrug and be like welp they're just better than us. The RWBS nailbiters amplify that one bad call against your team or that one random special teams fuckup and make it feel like Seattle didn't "deserve" to win.

The actual Seahawks players are pretty great, though.

All things considered, the Ravens last title is only 2 seasons removed from the Steelers last title, along with a mirrored embarrassing divisional round exit within 2 years of the Steelers doing the same thing.

Hey he had a yard more per carry than he did against the Eagles! That's progress!

Honestly I was impressed as hell that he even could/would do it. Guy has been retired for a long time now. He has no real reason to stay in exacting shape and also no reason to answer the phone when someone calls about having him come play again. The fact that he did was really cool honestly, and it's not like anyone else was tearing it up in the run game for the Seahawks. Managed to punch it in twice with the Seahawks near the goal line, too

The main thing though is the Cowboys are why I have to listen to Troy Aikman every week. Twice every week if there's a Thursday game. That's enough reason for anyone I should think.

Yeah that’s fair. I dunno, I also find it hilarious how much trash the Cowboys talk and then utterly fail to back it up. That probably makes me hate them a little less.

To me Jerry Jones is just as ridiculous and funny as Al Davis was. Jones just had the good fortune of being gifted a bunch of Super Bowl wins by the Minnesota Vikings.
