After scoring one touchdown in their first two
games the Seattle Seahawks offense came alive against the San Francisco 49ers
on Sunday to win 37-18. The game was not even that close since the 49ers scored
two touchdowns after the Seahawks were ahead 37-3.
Trevone
Boykin came in the third quarter when Russell hurt his left knee. Russell did
come back after one play to finish off the drive but then the Seahawks left him
on the bench for the rest of the game. The Seahawks had such a big lead at the
time there was no point to leave Wilson in the game even if he had not hurt his
knee. Both Wilson and the Seahawks believe he will be ready to play against the
Jets. Personally I believe they should give Boykin all the reps this week in
practice and then have him start the game against the Jets. If he has trouble
running the offense then I would have Wilson come in. The Seahawks have a bye
the following week so why not rest Wilson to get more health than have the
possibility where he could get hurt further. Having Wilson healthy for the
stretch run would be better than the possibility of getting further injured.
Thomas
Rawls is expected to be back for the Jets game however Christine Michael who
had a good game against the 49ers will start the game against the Jets. Rawls
will get in for some play as well. How much he will play will depend how
Michael is performing and how he is doing at the same time. Also running back C.J.
Prosise is expected back and rookie first round pick Germain Ifedi make his
first start at guard. The Seahawks will be close to full strength.
Jimmy
Graham had his best game since becoming a Seahawk receiving over hundred yards
in the game. He showed that he is close to full strength himself and can be a good
target for the Seahawks. He can catch a ball wherever he is at and who maybe
covering him. He showed the Seahawks the faith they have in him and how much
they are paying him.
The
future of this season looks bright long as the Seahawks are careful with Wilson
especially. According to Pete Carroll they will watch how Wilson goes this week
and he hopes to keep him out this week to. The Seahawks are at the top of the
division and have a game lead over the Arizona Cardinals. Go Seahawks!
