Nice article that highlights the effects of Flowers departure, Reeds return to the right side, and the emergence of rookie Tre Brown.

In three games on the left side, Reed allowed 10 completions on 16 targets in 136 coverage snaps. Opposing receivers gained just 101 yards on those 10 grabs, but a pair of touchdowns split between Vikings receivers Adam Thielen and Justin Jefferson in an overall disastrous affair for the Seahawks' defense helped prove Reed was not as comfortable in his new spot. 

Ever since his move back to the right side, however, things have come more naturally for him. Perhaps it's his vision or footing that makes the difference; whatever the case may be, it's become clear that this is the position he needs to be in full-time.

So Flower’s play on the field was bad or worse then most of us thought.
Go figure!

I never will understand what it was that Pete saw in Flowers.

Tre Brown really looks good. Not so sure about Reed, if his move back to the right side was the key to his improved play or if he's just getting better matchups.

Every team we played with Flowers, knew he was a weak link and it payed dividends to opposing offense's
I'm grateful he is gone.

DJ Reed is legit, but for the Rookie - I need to see him against better competition first. Clearly better than Flowers & Sidney Jones, though.
