Seahawks 3rd-most injury-impacted team in NFL, according to ESPN

The Seahawks aren’t the only team that’s been snake-bitten with major injuries this year, but according to ESPN’s Kevin Seifert, they’re one of the teams who are feeling their losses the most. Worse still, Seifert argues Seattle has yet to feel the brunt of its injuries – which is why the final stretch of five games could be a trying time for the perennial contender.

What we’re trying to figure out: Why is Seahawks QB Russell Wilson half-bad this season?

1. Why does Russell Wilson start so slow?

He was 8-for-19 passing in the first half for 80 yards on Sunday in the win over the 49ers, and for the second consecutive week had an interception that could be charitably described as uncharacteristic. And even if you chalk the pass that was intercepted on Seattle’s first play up to the wind that was swirling in Santa Clara, Calif., that still doesn’t explain why Wilson is so much more dangerous in the second half than he is in the first half.

RUSSELL WILSON IS ONLY HALF-BAD

Completions Attempts Pct. Pass yards TD INT Rating

First half 125 209 59.8 124.2 6 5 78.8

Second half 131 202 64.9 151.2 17 3 108.6

Clayton: Seahawks’ depth coming through as they enter final stretch

The Seahawks’ 24-13 victory over the San Francisco 49ers wasn’t pretty, but it was significant.

Even though the 49ers are a 1-10 team that played a rookie quarterback who was going to struggle to even get a touchdown drive, the Seahawks were able to test the depth of their defense. And minus Richard Sherman and Kam Chancellor, the Seahawks still limited the 49ers to 280 yards of total offense.
