With some expert drafting and a few selective forays into free agency, Seattle built a dominant unit.
With Seattle having just a handful of players listed on the injury report and with Denver in the double digits, things are looking good for the 'Hawks.

While these two teams did play each other during pre-season, it's safe to say that only a fool would look at that game footage in August for an inside edge.
For those who may not be old enough to remember, Seattle and Denver used to both be in the AFC West, facing off more than 50 times as division rivals. This wasn't limited to the regular season either as both teams met in 1983 for Seattle's first every NFL Playoff game.
The Seahawks and the Broncos will only play once for the title of Super Bowl champion. The game won't be played on a computer, but on the field. But that doesn't stop people from trying to guess what will happen on the field, with what happens in a computer simulation.
