The Seattle Seahawks are a unanimous #1 in this week's various NFL Power Rankings surveys by sports websites.

Pete Prisco at CBSSports.com says:

That was a brutal beating they gave the Saints. It will be tough to beat them in Seattle, which somebody will have to do.

Pat Kirwan, also at CBSSports.com had this to say:

All you had to do is watch the Saints-Seahawks game to know who No. 1 is right now.

The analysts at ESPN.com said this:

Russell Wilson completed 8 of 9 attempts against five or more rushers Monday. That 88.9 completion percentage is tied for the worst the Saints have allowed in a game since 2006.

The Seahawks become the first team to clinch a playoff berth this season and did so in a very impressive manner.

Finally, Elliott Harrison at NFL.com had this to say about the Seahawks:

What a statement game for Pete Carroll and the Seahawks, who dominated Monday night from stem to stern. David Lee Roth circa 1982 -- in all of his spastic glory -- couldn't compete with the Seattle head coach. Telling you right now, the only team that would have a chance to beat Carroll's squad in Seattle is Carolina -- and even that might be a stretch.
