Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks are one of those teams that are always dangerous once they get into the playoffs. Wilson has been able to propel his team to a Super Bowl title and another Super Bowl appearance the year after. Now, the Seahawks have had less success but they are still one of the premier teams in the NFC. 

Wilson is hoping that his team can bolster their offense in the offseason and according to John Clayton per ESPN, Wilson is looking at none other than Antonio Brown for the team’s receiving core.

Per Clayton:

“It’s pretty clear the Seahawks want to run the ball even more this year. They have loaded up at tight end and tried to stay big along the offensive line. But it’s not out of the question for the Seahawks to add another wide receiver. According to sources, Wilson would love to add Antonio Brown. Brown is also close with backup QB Geno Smith, whose one-year contract with the Seahawks was finalized Wednesday.”

Brown has had his fair share of problems over the last few years so it will be interesting to see if the Seahawks decide to follow through on Wilson’s request. Not to mention, if they do sign Brown, there is no guarantee the NFL lets him step on the field right away.

Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.

Russell Wilson has made great use of his short time in the NFL as he already has a Super Bowl and two appearances in the big game, under his belt. Wilson is easily a top 5 QB in the league right now and if you’re a Seattle Seahawks fan, you’re happy to know that he will be on the team for a very long time.

Between his two Super Bowl appearances and the last couple of years, Wilson was struggling at times as QB of the Seahawks. So much so, that there are now rumors circulating that the team almost traded him. According to Chris Simms of NBC Sports, the Seahawks were rumored to have called the Cleveland Browns in 2018, inquiring about their first overall pick. In fact, they were offering Russell Wilson in return.

Simms is unsure of whether or not the Seahawks did any following up after making the rumored offer but it’s pretty shocking when you think about it. The Browns ended up taking Baker Mayfield and while he had a solid rookie campaign, he regressed immensely in 2019. Needless to say, the Seahawks did a good job by keeping Wilson aboard.

If you’re a Seahawks fan, you can’t help but cringe just a little bit at this rumor. It would have certainly hurt the team’s chances of being an elite squad.

Perhaps one of the best Air Max sneakers of all time is the Nike Air Max 97. The shoe saw a huge resurgence back in 2017 when Nike brought out the “Silver Bullet” colorway to pay homage to the silhouette’s 20th anniversary. Since then, numerous colorways have been released and they all seem to do very well, even when the colorway is a GR.

Now, Nike is coming out with an Air Max 97 colorway that will appeal to all of the diehard Seattle Seahawks fans out there. As you can see from the official images below, the shoe has a blue, green, and black upper, with every color contrasting nicely with one another. It makes for a gorgeous-looking shoe that will certainly appeal to even the most casual sneaker consumer. Meanwhile, fans of the NFL team will probably be looking to add this to their collections, just in time for the season to commence.

A release date has not yet been determined for these but expect them to drop sometime in the near future for $170 USD. Let us know in the comments below whether or not you plan on copping.

We may be living in strange, quarantined times, but Ciara and Russell Wilson are making sure that they give back to those in need. A week and a half ago, it was announced that Ciara was following in the footsteps of thousands of other entertainers and postponing her upcoming concert because of the coronavirus pandemic. The singer partnered with her Seattle Seahawks, NFL star husband to donate 1 million meals to Food Lifeline through the Feeding America network.

It's estimated that millions of people are suffering from food shortages because of this COVID-19 lockdown, so the altruistic couple wanted to do their part. "Coronavirus is changing the world, second by second, minute by minute," Russell shared in a video of himself and Ciara on social media. "People are losing loved ones, the elderly and the young. Think about people losing jobs."

"What we've decided to do is partner up with our local food bank in Seattle, Seattle Food Lifeline, and we're gonna donate a million meals and hopefully make a difference," the football player continued. Ciara added, "We want to encourage everyone out there to join us in whatever way that you can, big or small. Everything makes a difference. Everything that we do together makes a difference. Together, we will conquer this tough time we're going through." The couple ended their message by also encouraging "everyone to keep the faith." Watch their video below.

This weekend, the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers will be battling it out in Miami as they try to win the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The 54th Super Bowl is set to be a phenomenal game between two teams that completely dominated the NFL regular and postseasons. While it remains to be seen who will win, we’re sure to be treated to an entertaining game, unlike that mess we got last year. 

There are a lot of factors that go into what makes a good Super Bowl. You need intrigue, a game that goes down to the wire, big plays, otherworldly individual performances, and even some upsets to throw a wrench in the mix. With this in mind, we decided to make a top 10 list, counting down the ten best Super Bowls of all-time. When constructing this list, entertainment was certainly a factor, however, it’s not the be-all, end-all. Instead, we have used the criteria above to construct a top 10 that takes a look at all of the moving parts. Having said that, let’s get into it, shall we. 

10. Super Bowl LII – Philadelphia Eagles 41, New England Patriots 33

Coming into this Super Bowl, the Eagles were clear underdogs. The Patriots came into this match as one of the greatest dynasties of all-time while the Eagles were playing with an unproven back up quarterback in Nick Foles. Somehow, the Eagles defied all expectations and defeated the Patriots in a 41-33 shootout. This game was defined by the infamous Philly Special that occurred at the end of the first half. For Eagles fans, this was a momentous occasion as the team finally won its first Super Bowl.

9. Super Bowl XLVII – Baltimore Ravens 34, San Francisco 49ers 31

There were plenty of stories to go around in this game. Jim and John Harbaugh were coaching against each other. Colin Kaepernick was looking to cement himself as a starter while Joe Flacco wanted to prove he was truly elite. Meanwhile, Ray Lewis was looking to end his career with one last hoorah. In the end, we got a huge treat for a game. After taking a huge lead in the first half, the Ravens began to implode. A lengthy power outage gave the 49ers plenty of time to prepare for a comeback. Eventually, the Ravens were able to hang onto the lead, with some help from the officials.

8. Super Bowl XXXII – Denver Broncos 31, Green Bay Packers 24

John Elway Vs. Brett Favre. This was a quarterback matchup for the ages. Favre had already won a Super Bowl by this point while Elway was known for losing in the big game. The Broncos legend was nearing the end of his career and was looking to finally get the weight off of his shoulders. Elway put together an incredible performance capped off by a valiant running effort to get a first down when the game was on the line. His performance will forever be considered one of the best in Super Bowl history. Not to mention, this win kicked off back-to-back Super Bowls for the Broncos.

7. Super Bowl XLIII – Pittsburgh Steelers 27, Arizona Cardinals 23

There were two moments that made this game so memorable. Of course, we are talking about the James Harrison 100-yard pick-six and the Santonio Holmes catch in the corner of the end zone. These two plays helped propel the Steelers to their sixth Super Bowl victory. Ben Roethlisberger won his second title of his young career which instantly made him one of the most successful quarterbacks of the decade. This was also the first and only time the Arizona Cardinals had made the Super Bowl which made it extra special.

6. Super Bowl XLIX – New England Patriots 28, Seattle Seahawks 24

This game is memorable because of the final play. I mean, who can really forget it? “The Seahawks should have ran the ball” became a rallying cry that is still said to this day. After a questionable first half, Tom Brady led a huge second half comeback that had the Patriots leading late in the game. In the final minutes, Russell Wilson and company began driving down the field and were just yards away from a game-winning touchdown. Instead of giving the ball to running back Marshawn Lynch, Wilson threw an interception in the end zone and the rest was history. The finale was spectacular and made for one of the best Super Bowls in modern day history.

5. Super Bowl III – New York Jets 16, Baltimore Colts 7

Many of you reading this probably weren’t even alive for this game. Hell, I wasn’t either. The score itself is fairly meager and in terms of pure entertainment value, it’s definitely not the greatest. With this in mind, you may be asking why this is even on the list to begin with? Well, it’s one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history. Joe Namath was considered a young QB with a big mouth. Meanwhile, Johnny Unitas was a behemoth of a quarterback and was favored to win by a significant margin. Somehow, Namath led his team to victory in what would become a career-defining moment. Jets fans haven’t had a lot to cheer for over the years but at least they can cling to Super Bowl III.

4. Super Bowl XXXIV – St. Louis Rams 23, Tennessee Titans 16

The sight of Kevin Dyson being tackled on the one-yard line with no time left will always haunt Tennessee Titans fans. It’s a moment that will forever be one of the best in Super Bowl history as the Rams won their first title. Sure, the game itself wasn’t anything spectacular but this one play made it one of the best championship games in sports history. Leading up to this game, the Titans got lucky with the Music City Miracle while the Rams were enjoying the success of young quarterback Kurt Warner. These were two teams few people saw going to the Super Bowl and it made the matchup that much more intriguing.

3. Super Bowl XIII – Pittsburgh Steelers 35, Dallas Cowboys 31

Fumbled punt returns, dropped touchdown passes, and back and forth offensive performances made this game an instant classic. The Cowboys were led by Roger Staubach while the Steelers were captained by Terry Bradshaw. Bradshaw put on a show as he went on to win Super Bowl MVP. At the time, the Cowboys and Steelers were two of the best franchises in the league and every single time they hit the field, it was box office. Cowboys vs Steelers was like the Lakers vs Celtics of the 80s. If you were around for this era, you could truly appreciate what this game meant for the rivalry and the NFL’s stranglehold on popular culture.

2. Super Bowl LI – New England Patriots 34, Atlanta Falcons 28

28-3. Quite frankly, that is all that needs to be said. We still can’t believe the Falcons blew that lead.

1. Super Bowl XLII – New York Giants 17, New England Patriots 14

Pretty well everyone in the world thought the New England Patriots were going to win this game. They finished the season with the first ever 16-0 record in NFL history and were trying to have the best perfect record the league has ever seen. Tom Brady was on the cusp of tying Joe Montana for four Super Bowls. In the end, the Giants were able to put on a defensive clinic. The game was capped off by one of the most incredible catches in NFL history, courtesy of Davis Tyree. Plaxico Burress scored the final touchdown and Eli Manning got his first ever Super Bowl. This was one of the biggest upsets in sports history and it remains a sore spot for Patriots fans, despite their six other Super Bowl wins.

Russell Wilson has always been a clean-cut quarterback who plays by the rules. Every time you hear about Wilson, he is doing something positive for his family, Seahawks fans, and his teammates. With this in mind, it would be unfathomable to think that he is using performance-enhancing drugs. These characteristics didn't stop the NFL from forcing Wilson into a random drug test on Monday. What makes this recent drug test particularly funny/newsworthy is the fact that it was done during his exit interview.

According to Joe Fann of NBC Sports, Wilson was in front of the media ready for his end of year interview when all of a sudden, he was told he had to complete the test. Wilson couldn't believe what he was hearing and thought he was being pranked. In the end, the test was very much real and he had to excuse himself before returning shortly after.

It’s obvious that Ciara and Russell Wilson can’t get enough of each other. The husband and wife duo often take to their social media pages to share loving pictures and videos of their adorable home life, and they never spare an opportunity to pen sweet notes about their love for one another. They celebrate each other’s wins and encourage one another when there are losses, and Ciara exercised the latter on Monday following the NFL star’s Playoffs exit.

The Seattle Seahawks quarterback is being hailed for his performance during the team’s final game of the season even though they lost to the Green Bay Packers. The Seahawks went from being down 21-3 to recovering to 28-23 with the help of a strong-willed Wilson. Ciara lavished compliments on her husband on Instagram where she reminded people just how talented, skilled, and accomplished Wilson is, regardless of whether or not he wins or loses.

“My Warrior ❤️. As always so so proud of you. You put it all on the line every time. That’s in all that you do!” the singer wrote. “You’ve made 7 Post Seasons of your 8 Seasons, 7 Pro Bowls of those 8, and All Pro this year.. not including all your other amazing stats ?. You truly are a rare breed. Most of them all, you’re 10 for 10 with loving me and our babies with your all! Grateful to witness your Greatness on and off the field! It’s just the beginning. So excited for what’s ahead. Love you so much.” Check it out below.

Football fans were treated to an incredible weekend of Divisional playoff games and it was all capped off by Sunday night's match between the Seattle Seahawks and the Green Bay Packers. In the end, the Packers came out on top as they squeaked by with a 28-23 win. The Seahawks looked poised for a comeback but Aaron Rodgers and company were able to lead a game-sealing drive in the final minutes.

The Packers had some guests on hand to take in the game, including none other than Anthony Davis of the Los Angeles Lakers. As it turns out, AD is a huge Packers fan and his favorite player is Aaron Rodgers. At the start of the game, Davis got to be on the sidelines to cap off the festivities.

Marshawn Lynch has delivered several memorable soundbites over the course of his illustrious career, so it's only right that he took the time to say some words following what will likely be the final game of his NFL career.

Lynch took the podium for less than two minutes after Seattle's 28-23 loss to the Packers on Sunday night, but he used that time to advise younger players to take care of three things: their mind, their body, and their chicken, aka money.

Last weekend’s Wild-Card round was easily one of the best weekends of playoff football we have seen in a long time. The weekend was kicked off with a thrilling overtime game between the Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans. From there, we were blessed with a huge upset as the Tennessee Titans, propelled by Derrick Henry, knocked off the defending champion New England Patriots. On Sunday, more upsets were had as the Minnesota Vikings defeated the formidable New Orleans Saints in yet another overtime blockbuster matchup. The final game of the weekend wasn’t as dramatic as the other three although the Seattle Seahawks showed everyone why they’re so hard to beat when the games mean something.

Now, we are in the Divisional Round which means the stakes are even higher. Whoever wins will punch their ticket into their respective conference’s championship game. From there, they will compete for a spot in the Super Bowl where the Lombardi trophy will be on the line. There are some phenomenal matchups this weekend and we’re here to predict who’s going to come away victorious.

Minnesota Vikings @ San Francisco 49ers

The Vikings were one of the most surprising teams of the Wild-Card round as quarterback Kirk Cousins and company upset Drew Brees and the Saints. Most fans would tell you they had the Saints winning that game simply because the Saints offense is too much to handle. In the end, the Vikings defense was up to the task and did an incredible job stifling some of the Saints’ biggest playmakers. Meanwhile, the San Francisco 49ers were one of this season’s biggest surprises as they finished the year with a record of 13-3 and even won the number one seed in the NFC. 

Once you get to the Divisional Round, stats are pretty well thrown out the window. What these matches come down to is talent and who can perform in the biggest moment. Both of these teams have unproven quarterbacks which makes the matchup that much more interesting. Cousins proved his worth by winning a playoff game last weekend although it remains to be seen whether or not he can continue that success. As for Jimmy Garoppolo, he will be making his playoff debut on Saturday and the pressure is on. Cousins has better weapons at wide receiver whereas Jimmy G mostly relies on his game management skills. On the defensive side of the ball, the 49ers have been nothing short of dominant this year and will surely prove to be the Vikings’ toughest challenge yet. The Vikings have proven themselves to be formidable foes on defense but 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan has proven himself to be quite crafty this season. With this in mind, it’s clear the 49ers have an advantage.

Usually, 1 Vs. 6 seeds are easy to predict. This matchup, however, is going to be closer than people think. Regardless, the 49ers have the pieces necessary to make a Super Bowl run and their road to Miami begins this Saturday. Look for Jimmy G and company to pull this one out. 

Winner: 49ers (27-17)

Tennessee Titans @ Baltimore Ravens

Coming into the playoffs, the Baltimore Ravens boast the best record in the NFL as they sit at 14-2. The Ravens were dominant thanks to quarterback Lamar Jackson who is a prime candidate for league MVP. Not to mention, running back Mark Ingram was the perfect complementary piece to Jackson’s dual-threat offense. Overall, the Ravens are a team that can decimate you on both sides of the ball, which puts them in the perfect position to make a deep playoff run. As for the Tennessee Titans, they are a gritty team that squeaked into the playoffs and are on an emotional high after upsetting the Patriots.

When it comes down to it, the Ravens are simply the better team and it’s not particularly close. From top to bottom, the Ravens have the advantage. You can make the argument that Derrick Henry is better than Ingram, however, after his usage from last weekend, it wouldn’t be surprising to see a tired, broken down Henry on the field. The Ravens will be anticipating the run game and are more than equipped to deal with it. As for Titans QB Ryan Tannehill, he just isn’t in the same ballpark as Jackson. He put up pedestrian numbers against the Patriots and the Ravens will prove to be an even tougher test. The Titans run has been fun to watch but it will come to an end on Saturday.

Jackson and his teammates will put on a clinic and run away with it early. Expect a double-digit win for the league’s regular-season champion.

Winner: Ravens (31-14)

Houston Texans @ Kansas City Chiefs

Perhaps the best game of the weekend will be between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans. Earlier this season, Deshaun Watson and the Texans toppled the Chiefs by a score of 31-24. This game was at the height of the Chiefs’ defensive woes all while QB Patrick Mahomes was dealing with injury woes. Now, the tables have turned as the Chiefs are coming into the playoffs with the number two seed in the AFC and a six-game winning streak.

This matchup is going to come down to one thing: the quarterbacks. Mahomes and Watson are two of the best quarterbacks in the league and have the skill necessary to win a Super Bowl. Mahomes is known as more of a gunslinger while Watson is known for his ability to march offenses down the field and scramble out of the pocket when necessary. Both defenses are going to have a hard time stopping these men and it’s going to make for some interesting television. Both the Texans and Chiefs boast questionable defenses although the Chiefs have vastly improved since these teams last played each other. Watson has the ability to go tit for tat with Mahomes but the latter’s ability to throw 50-yard touchdowns at will could prove to the difference. The Texans barely squeaked by the Bills, whose offense is anemic, to say the least. All things considered, it appears as though the Chiefs have the advantage.

Mahomes is going to be motivated after what happened in last year’s playoffs. Look for him to have a dominant game with three touchdown passes. The Chiefs will win this one narrowly, although as they say, a win is a win.

Winner: Chiefs (24-21)

Seattle Seahawks @ Green Bay Packers

Of all the games going on this weekend, this could potentially be the hardest to predict. At the end of the day, it’s all going to depend on what version of Aaron Rodgers we see. Rodgers is perhaps the most talented quarterback to ever grace the field, however, he has seen a bit of a decline over the last two seasons and it has started to be quite noticeable. Luckily for the Packers, Rodgers has a solid defense and competent running back for what seems like the first time in his career. The Seahawks have their own issues as the defense and offense are plagued with injuries. Add a weak offensive line to the mix and you’ve got a nightmare scenario for Russell Wilson.

Wilson and rookie wide receiver DK Metcalf combined for 160 yards and a touchdown last week so look for them to be a huge factor on Sunday. Meanwhile, Rodgers and his Packers receivers will be motivated to silence those who think the Packers are pretenders, despite their impressive 13-3 record. For Rodgers, this could very well be a legacy game. He hasn’t been to the Super Bowl since 2011 and many pundits are starting to question his ability to win big games. This is the perfect opportunity for Rodgers to silence the critics and put on a vintage performance. Overall, this game could very well go the distance and result in a last-minute score. It might be a bit of a coin flip but considering the Seahawks’ injuries, the Packers seem to have the advantage.

Let’s face it, we all want to see a Packers vs. 49ers NFC Championship game. All things considered, it looks like we’re on a collision course for that exact matchup.

Winner: Packers (21-17)
