Seattle Seahawks had to come from behind to win Thursday nights game at home against the Green Bay Packers 27-24. The game started out poorly with Chris Carson fumbling the ball on the first play of the game then the Packers scored really quickly after that.
The Packers scored two touchdowns in the first quarter while the Seahawks kicked a field goal trying to get their offense going. At that point the Seahawks defense wasn't doing that much better either.
In the second quarter Doug Baldwin caught his first touchdown of the season though Russell Wilson over threw him at least once before hand. Chris Carson redeemed himself with a touchdown as well. So the halftime score was Green Bay 21 Seahawks 17.
The third quarter wasn't exciting at all since neither team scored a point. I have to say not a lot of fans were happy with Russell Wilson at that point. Of course he changed things in the 4th quarter. The Seahawks did kick a field goal to make it a close game 21-20 before the Packers kicked one themselves to put the lead up to 24-20. Finally Russell Wilson directed a series where the Seahawks scored a touchdown with just over five minutes remaining connecting to tight end Ed Dickson for the final score of 27-24.
You compare Russell Wilson with the Seattle Mariners. He looks like he is starting out pitching like Felix Hernandez did this last season then in the fourth quarter he pitches like closer Edwin Diaz. Wouldn't it be nice if he could be going the whole game long however long as the Seahawks win that is what counts. The Seahawks now are 5-5 and they take on the Panthers in Carolina on November 25. They are able to rest over the weekend before getting back to practice next week. The Seahawks really need to win at least 4 out of the remaining 6 games to have any chance to get to the playoffs. It wouldn't be easy though they do play the 49ers twice along with Arizona Cardinals however they do go against the Minnesota Vikings and Kansas City Chief well as the Panthers in games outside the division. We must think positive though. Go Hawks.
