11. The score isn't indicative of the greatness of one team.

Seattle played a depleted, tired team in the Forty Niners. They traveled six thousand miles round trip to beat a good Eagles team in a tough game, then with only five days rest, they traveled to Seattle to play a well rested rival team in a very hostile stadium.
I’m not Seattle wouldn’t have won that game even if the Niners had been rested, but the lopsided score needs to be taken with a grain of salt. They’ll have the upper hand in the championship game, but they’re not as good as last night’s score would have you believe.
