I still don’t know if the Seahawks did Atlanta any favors by knocking the NFC defending champion New Orleans Saints out of the playoffs, since I’m dumb enough to think the Packers are be the scariest team in pro football that doesn’t call New England or Pittsburgh.home.

I do know Marshawn Lynch’s 67-yard touchdown run to seal the 41-36 win for Seattle may have been the best run I’ve seen. Ever.

My wife’s reaction while watching it probably said it best. “Does that guy have a force field around him?”

It also brought back memories of another great run by none other than Georgia Southern great Adrian Peterson (not the Oklahoma-Minnesota Viking’s Adrian Peterson).

Here. Compare them for yourself.
