1. Cant put too much stock into what Tony says. He pricked the 49ers both week 18 and in the divisional round vs Seattle lmao

2. I love how the the view of the seahawks offense has changed so much this year, the Rams are the ones that showed the blueprint saying that they wouldn't respect the run and didn't want to be beat by Sam Darnold's arm, now Tony Dungy is saying the opposite lol

3. Seattle doesnt need Darnold to outplay Stafford to win. They need their defense to outplay the Rams offense.

4. Can ANYONE name one time the QB's were on the field at the same time except on the coin toss? So why compare QB's when you should be comparing the OC schemes and defenses of the opposing teams. The only time the QB stats matter is when pointing out how many times the opposing Defense failed/succeeded against the offense. Turnovers are a result of defense overwhelming on coverage or pressures. End of story. Hawks have had the more dominant defense all season and just got better as the season progressed. And finally, LA barely won the game in Seattle because Meyer missed a nearly 60 yard field goal attempt that would have put Seattle ahead by 1. Rams have to play by the seat of their pants and hope for turnovers, because they had Nacua's # and held him to miniscule yardage.

5. Seattle is coming into this game with confidence high. They're strong, healthy, complete and peaking at just the right time. Rams haven't been the same since losing that game to Seattle in overtime. Sam Darnold hasn't hardly turned the ball over since that game and Matthew Stafford has. I don't see a blowout like what Seattle did against the 49ers but they're coming away with the win. Hawks 27-17.

6. Did you know that Sam Darnold’s first professional pass for the N Y Jets was an interception?

7. It won't come down to hero qb stuff. Defense, and turnovers will be the difference.

8. So Brock Purdy can throw 10 picks while missing half the season and he’s a GOD. But Sam Darnold balls out, takes care of the ball AND HAS PROVEN IN THE BIGGEST MOMENTS HE CAN WIN GAMES FOR HIS TEAM (the rams game in OT? Duh?😂) and it’s just “….meh. I trust Mathew Stafford, the guy who lost to the panthers an falcons” 😂😂 idiots

9. Thanks Tony you picked the bears to beat the Rams 😂

10. Same old broken record, Sam Darnold and turnover, turnover, turnover. Hey. Sam Darnold, two years in a row, different team each year, won FOURTEEN games even with the "turn overs". Here is a stat all the "turnover" drummers keep missing. There is only ONE other QB in NFL history that has ever won 14 games in a season twice in a row and the other one did it playing for the same team both years. Tom Brady, that puts Sam Darnold in a pretty exclusive club, even with the "turnovers". Another thing to consider, the Seahawks are a TEAM effort, the TEAM wins or loses. The TEAM is made up of several star quality individuals that are playing as a TEAM, not as an individual "star". The 40Whiners came into Lumen Field with a swagger and left with a stagger. TEAM Seahawks, WE BELIEVE!!!

11. Tell me you haven't watched the Seahawks without saying you haven't watched the Seahawks this season.
    Seahawks are a 3 phase team and the offense is a threat on the ground in the air or over the top.

12. Hawks fans, if you want to get real football insights, ignore all these talking heads on national shows. They are only interested in a QB reality TV show. It is sad when people who have played the game (like Tony) talk in QB reality TV show terms instead of core football data analysis. Don’t forget they only started mentioning Seahawks because there are only 4 teams left and their favorite QBs have gone fishing

13. Macdonald doesn't use Sam Darnold much because even he knows his susceptibility to turnovers.

14. Hoping NFCCG has higher ratings than SB😂
    It will be hilarious watching Rams or Hawks get Lombardi on the grass of the 40weasels in front of all those Bay Area cult people 😂😂😂

15. Stafford & Puka are without NFL's 'tightest duo'- but if Donald 'throws interceptions' They loose- simple!

16. Sam also threw for over 270 yards in each Rams game this year. Stafford can't say that

17. To be more specific, it'll come down to OL play on both sides of the ball.

18. Tony Dungy is probably the worst football analyst on the planet. I can’t believe he gets any TV time

19. Gigi has been picking the bears. He probably picked the Panthers against the Rams and now he’s picking Seattle that’s kind of one-sided. Wow really surprised about that.

20. I’m taking Matthew Stafford! 🏈🔥

21. nice

22. IT WILL COME DOWN TO DEFENSE💪💪💪

23. DONT THESE MORONS KNOW ITS A TEAM SPORT, NOT A QB STAT😂😂😂😂

24. 14 ints by sam d. Leading the league along the company of tua and geno 😂

25. Defense wins championships

26. If Sam Darnold plays in peak form – its a cake walk win.

27. How are we not discussing the outrageous filter this man is using
