First, the 'Hawks had a very tough time in two home games this year against NFC East teams (Cowboys and Giants) who weren't playing nearly as well as the Redskins are right now. Seattle easily could have (and arguably should have) lost either or both of those games.
Second, the 'Skins already have beaten the Seahawks. Sure, it was in Washington. But the Redskins have gotten a lot better since then, especially on defense. For example, a guy named LaVar Arrington was still eating Alpo from a plastic bowl at the time these two teams last played.
With strong defense (edge to D.C.), a solid running game (slight edge to Seattle), and quarterback experience in the postseason (edge to D.C.) being the three biggest factors in January, the pendulum swings to the 'Skins, 23-16.

That's cool. At least we got one. Were there any others (not counting any "homers")? We should have a list (I'm sure its very short) of who picked us and give them mad props here later.
