This should be a great game. The two hottest teams in the NFC squaring off for the right to represent the conference in the Super Bowl. Carolina is playing good defense and no one seems to be able to stop (or even contain) Steve Smith, who has established himself as one of the best – if not the best – WRs in the league.
Shaun Alexander missed most of the game against the Redskins with a concussion, but Seattle expects him to play. Julius Peppers plans to play through his shoulder injury, but the real question is how effective can he be? Carolina had a tough time pressuring Rex Grossman when Peppers was out of the lineup, and I don’t expect it to be any easier against the Seahawks.
I’m holding off until later in the week to make my pick. So who do you think is going to win?
