Going back to last season, even though they went 15-1, they did show a tendency to blow leads. they blew a big lead vs NYG, blew one vs Indy (went to OT) and also let Seattle mount a bit of a comeback in the playoffs. They won all those games but they lost tonight and this trend could bite them in the behind in this 'Super Bowl Loss Hangover' year.
Unfortunately they have a weak enough schedule coming up, with home games against the 9ers and Bridgeless Vikings on deck. They don't play any tough road games until November, and their toughest opponent in October (arizona) is at home at night. But looking at their schedule after the next 2 games they have 3 div games back to back. Then they have that Cards game at home, at the Rams, and Chiefs at home before the Saints, then at the Raiders and at the Seahawks. I think the majority of those non division games listed above are all good go against spots.
If the Vikings QB situation isn't a total disaster, that might be one as well as they will be possibly more focused on the 3 division games on tap.
