I never said the Seahawks weren't a good solid football team, its just that in such a competitive NFC, I don't think they have the talent to make it to the Super Bowl. There was a period late in the game where Shawn Alexander was shut out, and the whole offense crumbled. Matt Hassleback just doesn't have what it takes in my opinion as a quarterback in the clutch, which is a necessary component to a Super Bowl team. That is not even mentioning the fact they play in an awful division. They get six divisional games against the Rams, Cardinals, and 49ers, which is basically like six free wins to inflate their record with. Looking at their schedule, the only competition they have had all season is the Jaguars, Falcons, Cowboys, and Giants. So granted they are 9-2, but they have had only 4 tough games, and have gotten five free wins against divisional opponents so far. I think you are going to see the true Seahawks come out when they play the Colts, their only competitive game left on their schedule.
