Hold onto
your hat . . . Just when you thought it was Green Bay all the way the fourth
quarter (and overtime) miracle of Seattle seals the deal and a seat in the February
1, 2015 Super Bowl Game against the Patriots.
Let’s take a
look at the indicators of success for Seattle.
Seattle didn’t let the first half get in their head. It was 16-zip Green Bay at halftime. Green Bay was playing to win; Seattle was
just playing. The weather was pelting
rain, the wind playing a factor. At
halftime it would have easy to have a mind reset of survival for Seattle. Instead, it seemed as if it was a mindset of thriving
despite the first half and weather challenges.
Seattle
believed in the miracle of “two quarters does not make a full football game”. They believed that there was a way to make things
happen based on their training, teamwork and mental toughness. They did not allow the pressure of the clock
to pressure them.
Seattle scored 21
points in the final 5.5 minutes of play.
Players stepping up to take the challenge. Belief that this win could be
accomplished. Overcoming despite field
challenges. Sounds like a good recipe
for success for any team.
