The Seahawks on Sunday went down and
beat the Rams in Los Angeles 16-10. I know some people were excited that they
won however I wasn’t a big fan of the game. The reason was the running game was
non-existent and the defense though they had their moments with turnovers had
problems stopping the Rams on third down and long. It is going to be a long
season if this turns out to be a pattern.
The Seahawks one the game partly
because of the defense and luck as well. It was a good win because they have
had problems being the Rams of late and keeps them in first place.
The positive side though they do
have bye this week where the players can get away for a little while and get
refocused for the rest of the season; also
will help with those who have nagging injuries and guys like Michael Bennett
who might be out for a few weeks.
It is important for the Seahawks to
win some games on the road to make the playoff and have home court advantage.
The next game will be on October 22 playing the New York Giants on the road.
The Giants currently haven’t won a game and are dead last in the NFC East.
The Giants lost their last game on
Sunday to the Los Angeles Charles 27-22. They lost several receivers in the
game including Odel Beckham Jr and Brandon Marshall who will be lost for the
season. The Giants will be playing Denver on the road this Sunday so the
Seahawks will have rest while they will play. There will be likely the Giants
will have six losses before facing Seahawks. Since the road games are important
the Seahawks can’t take the Giants lightly especially one that hasn’t won a
game.
I hope to see the Seahawks get off
to a better start against the Giants and that the defense will not give up so
many big plays on third down and long. This is a game where turnovers could
help out the Seahawks a lot. We should know about the injured Seahawks and more
when the get back to practice after taking some time off. Go Hawks!
