Seahawks Win Preseason Opener

The Seattle Seahawks  beat the Minnesota 
Vikings Thursday night 24-13.

The Seahawks  scored 17 points in the
second half while giving up only 3.
The first half was a downer for sure.
I  would call it snooze city.

The first half the Vikings  were able to do
what has been the weakness of the
Seahawks  defense in running the ball.
Fortunately  it was bend not break though
did score ten points.

Drew Lock not only played the first half
some of the second as well.  He looked
impressive as the backup quarterback.

Most of the Seahawks  starters didn't 
play in this game. Easop Winston trying
to make the team as the fourth or fifth 
receiver was Lock's favorite  receiver 
catching three passes and a touchdown.
Also undrafted free agent Jake Bobo 
had three catches and a touchdown. 
Bobo has been so impressive that he
maybe favored to make the team as
one of the backup receivers. 

The Seahawks  had 106 yards rushing
on the night all by backups. The Seahawks 
have that kind of rushing during the season 
will certainly  help them out.

One of their receivers  trying to make the
ball club was injured and carted off on a
stretcher to the hospital in the second 
quarter. Word is Cade's injury is only a
concussion.  Whether he will be able
to play in the next preseason  game
against Dallas we will  have to see.

Expect the next game we will likely see
more of the backups again. Whether Lock
starts or we see Geno Smith  instead
Lock should see more action again.
Go Hawks!
