After much speculation as to which team will face the Seahawks to kickoff the 2014 season, the NFL reveals the Green Bay Packers will visit Century Link September 4th. The Denver Broncos will meet their Super Bowl opponents in Seattle in the third week of the season (Sept. 21st).

The Hawks will have 4 primetime games, including a Thanksgiving Day primetime slot against Niners in their new home in Santa Clara.

Pause before jumping to conclusions regarding Kaepernick

According to a report file by the Miami Police Department, San Francisco 49ers' quarterback Colin Kaepernick is under investigation for a suspicious incident that occurred last week. 2 other NFL players, Seahawks' Ricardo Lockette and Niners' Quinton Patton are also named as suspects in this report. You can google it if you're curious about this report.

The temptation is to jump to conclusions. Sports radio and various internet sites feasts on speculation. But, before anyone jumps too far, be one to take a moment and wait for all the information to come out. Just because you're a fan of one team and see Colin Kaepernick as the "enemy," doesn't mean that one should wish ill will towards him, Patton, or Lockette.

Time can be an ally. No charges have been filed on this matter.

Richard Sherman autographs NFC Championship photo


Do you think this will be popular only in Seattle? Or, did Sherman just heat up the inter-divisional rivalry for the coming year?
