Before the biggest game of the NFL season, the Seattle Seahawks spent a lot of time and effort chasing a ghost.
SI.com led off an interesting story about the New England Patriots' mysterious ways with a tale about Seattle's Super Bowl prep this past January. The story talked about all the precautions Seattle took after multiple teams, unsolicited, told the Seahawks to secure their practices because they were facing the Patriots (cue the drama button). Security guards were brought in to keep an eye on the perimeter, parking garages in the area were swept, the mountain near the practice facility was monitored.
