^I like that they have made moves to better themselves this year, (sidney rice, tavaris jackson ect are all big moves) and ive already said I really like pete carrol as a coach. But just judging them based on their performance last year (some really really bad losses, and basically getting into the playoffs on a secondary rule that broke the tie between them and the rams) as someone who likes to see good teams compete it was disappointing to me that they made the playoffs, and an embarrassment to the division. Plus I wanted to see Bradford in the playoffs. They did beat the saints, but the hawks are really only good at home and I didnt see them going anywhere once they left home.
So basically, no, I think they were a sub par team that got lucky last year.
