There were about 4 sets of fans in our section. At the gates, it seemed like more of a 60/40 mix with 60% of them being Seahawks, and a Stubhub employee also said that's what he'd been seeing.

Also, that video was taken later in the game. A few of those fans left early.

All the Seahawks at the game got SOOOO psyched up after they played this during the introductions. Was a little disappointed he did one for the Broncos too...

So 200,000 people who might get a laugh and 500,000 people who wouldn't know what that is.

Some Seahawks fans have been struttin their feathers about the strength of the NFC West, which I have been quick to point out ,that until very recently ( last 2 years) they were one of the worst divisions in the league, including a 7-9 division winner just a couple years back.
Now we all know that the Jets 2 successive AFC Championship games was a fluke , but.....with that , just a couple years removed ...and the Pats dominance in the league , combined with three of the four teams this year, at a 500 record or above, I think the AFC East is growing in strength and will be one of the divisions that will be one that can stand with any.

just can't count on the Bills though, WTF is wrong with that franchise ? you would think a team that has been down so long, would have some young studs with all those low draft picks .

Over the years the Bills have rewarded too many players based on minimum games with performance. Rob Johnson because he played a good single game against the Colts lands him a playoff start and a big contract all the way to Ryan Fitzpatrick has a good few games to start a season landing him a big contract. BOTH of the above and so many players in between get the contract and immediately begin to show how overpaid they became. The Bills and the raiders have much in common the past decade. Spend a ton on unproven players based on current hype and no real backing.

It's starting to really wear on me. The NFL is my first love. But the Bills are pushing me away. When you go into a season with as miserable a feeling as you came out of a losing season it really sucks. This past season going in is the best I've felt entering a season in over a decade. And I didn't feel good at all with a non-NFL staff and a a Rookie QB that overachieved in college on a team that as it turns out was better off after he left.

So, ya, when you enter a season feeling positive ONLY because your team is a long shot as opposed to a NO shot it's pretty shitty.

Thank God it's only a game or I might just kill myself. haha

The Seahawks defense overshadowed a great, possibly MVP caliber performance by Russell Wilson.

This is a great interview of Dangeruss.
