1. About 78% of the league is 6-5 or worst.

2. 22% of the remaining teams 7-4 or better (7 teams) Seahawks played 4 of them (57%) and had 4th QTR leads in all of them but couldnt finish.

Talking Points:

3. Without Lynch and now Graham, the offense is unpredictable at this point. Much of the game is about preparation and reading keys, Ds having to rework that game-planning makes the Seahawks Offense dangerous moving forward. Rawls is a much different RB than Lynch in hitting holes quickly and being able to turn the corner but still is a highly physical on the tackle. WRs need to play at the level they displayed yesterday. Baldwin was physical and it helped him make some big plays. Those are games the Corps can feed off of.

4. Sherman had a great game. And starting Shead and having Lane back returned some of that L.O.B physicality and ball-hawkin that was missing. Lengthier, physical corners mean opposing QBs not only have to throw the perfect ball but put it in a spot that is out of reach of the defender. If Thomas and Chance can return to an All-Pro level plus a more consistent pass rush... the L.O.B. will be back.

5. Of the 6-7 teams that make up the next 20% of contending teams, Seahawks might be the best darkhorse contender. Unpredictable Offense with a D with the experience and pedigree to be dominant... If this team catches fire and executes on all levels, this team could be hard to handle moving forward and no team will want to play us.
