Seattle’s defense was the story of this game as they shut down Drew Brees and the Saints. The Seahawks were able to take a huge halftime lead and disrupt the Saints the entire night. At this point it appears that the strongest team in the NFC and maybe the entire NFL resides in Seattle. For the Saints they don’t have too much time to dwell on this one as they must now game plan for the surging Panthers and Cam Newton.
