The Hoser's NFL Postseason Picks 2010 -- Week 1: NFL picks that are ready to party with the Russian Junior team anytime.
All week I've been talking to people about how the stars were aligned for this to happen. It just seemed like the Seahawks were coming together at the right time while the Saints have just been a good -- not great -- team this year.
Add in the home crowd and the fact that I think Seattle OC Jeremy Bates called a damned-near perfect game last week and you have the makings of a colossal upset.
I'm solid on the Packers tomorrow also. The other two games, I'm just wishing.

Yeah, but their record sucked; they had a losing record; blah, blah, blah. I was so sick of hearing that crap. The only thing Seattle needed to do was make the playoffs. No apologies required. When it comes to a single elimination situation, anything can, and did, happen. I'm all for re-seeding, but I was glad Seattle took it to the Saints.
And Marshawn Lynch's run was one of the greatest clutch runs I have ever seen.

Yeah, what a great round. I wouldn't have bet that way, but for a fan with no vested interest in either team........fun day. Especially Seattle, underdog thing and all.

OMG fraze. You may be one of about five people in North America who are going to be right about the first game.
