Wow, some people are going to make some really good money today, if they bet on the Seattle Seahawks to win straightup against the 2010 Super Bowl champs, the New Orleans Saints.
From ESPN: Jokes, lightweights, laughingstocks.
Not these Seattle Seahawks. They just sent the defending Super Bowl champions packing.
Matt Hasselbeck threw four touchdown passes and Marshawn Lynch scored on an electrifying 67-yard run with 3:22 left and the Seahawks pulled one of the biggest upsets in playoff history with a 41-36 win over the New Orleans Saints.
The Seahawks (8-9) held a 34-20 early in the fourth quarter before Drew Brees looked ready to lead the Saints (11-6) on one of their patented comebacks. But Lynch broke about a half-dozen tackles for his TD and a few anxious minutes later, the party was on at the NFL's loudest stadium.
Seattle, the first division winner with a losing record, will play next weekend, either at top-seeded Atlanta or No. 2 Chicago.

Update: The New York Jets defeated the Indianapolis Colts today, 17-16, thus knocking out the other 2010 Super Bowl participant.
If you believe in special supernatural help, bet on the Jets.
Surber the Genius!!
