It is strange not to see the Seahawks not
playing this Sunday. Of course we saw them on Thursday night beating the lowly
Los Angeles Rams.
Both
Michael Bennett and Jon Ryan have concussions though they have been ruled being
OK. It is good that they have the extra time to get ready for the next
game. Richard Sherman was upset that the
Seahawks were playing on Thursday after the loss to the Packers last Sunday in
Green Bay. He was thinking about the health of the players and the concussions
of Bennett and Ryan does bring concern. Though Sunday feels like a bye week I
think that the teams that play on Thursday should have a bye week and not play
the Sunday before. It will be interesting to see if the players and owners
negotiate that next time in contract. I don’t think most of the Thursday night
games have been that good and the ratings have been so so however because of
money I don’t think they will be going away too soon.
Another
thing it is looking like they are going to go with four games in London in the
future. I think that is OK as long as the Seahawks don’t lose a home game in
the process. I am sure the 12th man would not be too happy about
that. The alternative would be to have a pre-season game in London though.
It
was nice to see that Russell Wilson and the passing game improved on Thursday
it will be good to see more improvement in the rushing game. I believe the
problem was the offensive line in the game. Though the Rams have a terrible
offensive their defense is good. It was good to see the defensive line was able
to get to the Rams quarterback too.
With
two games remaining against the Cardinals and the 49ers it is not the score
that counts it is the offense and defense getting up to par for the ready of
the playoffs. In many ways those two games are like pre-season though they are
important to win so the Seahawks will have home field advantage. Hopefully
someone will knock off the Dallas Cowboys in the playoffs before the Seahawks
would face them because it does look like they would face them in Dallas and we
know the Seahawks have not done well this season on the road.
Though
the Seahawks have struggles in December so far we know that they will be ready
for the playoffs and we hope another trip to the Super Bowl. It would be nice
to face the New England Patriots once again and win. So enjoy whatever game you
see Sunday or another thing you may do like enjoying your family. Go Hawks!
