The Seattle Defense This Sunday

The question mark this week will be how the Seattle Seahawks will play defensively against the Carolina Panthers along with seeing their depth on the defensive side. 

The Seahawks have defensive end, Jadeveon Clowney ruled out for the game. Also, cornerback Shaquill Griffin and defensive end Ziggy Ansah are not expected to play either. So that is three important players not going on Sunday.

Rashaad Penny will be missing the rest of the season as I mentioned already before. So CJ Prosise is expected to backup Chris Carson at running. Prosise hasn't played a lot this season so it will be interesting to see how much he has. He has had moderate success when playing but not playing a significant amount of time puts it in question, on the other hand, he is healthy for a change. Likely he will be used on some third-down situations to catch the ball out of the backfield. I wouldn't be surprised that Carson goes a couple series before Prosise enters into the game. This will depend on how successful the Seahawks running game is today too. It is important the Seahawks keep the ball out of the hands of the Panthers to rest the defense. 

We will see how the Seahawks bounce back from a terrible game against the Rams next week. We wish you, Russell Wilson, a good and healthy game. Go Hawks.
