non-fantasy football observation from a fan of my home team, Seattle Seahawks.

The Seahawks have the number one ranked defense (fourth year in a row, wooT!). The Atlanta Falcons, who we play here on Sunday have the number one ranked offense. Top offense vs top defense. The pleasant symmetry continues on other side of the ball for both teams, ranked 27th, respectively.

What do you think? When Atlanta has the ball, it's power against power. When Seattle has the ball it's weakness against ineptitude. Or something. The intangibles that I believe are in Seattle's favor, it's a home game for us. Century Link Field is *notoriously* loud, earthquake-level loud. Advantage-Seattle. And the weather is supposed to be pretty shitty, rainy and very, very windy. I would think that favors the defense, which of course, they both must play.

It promises to be an exciting game.
