Why the Rams and Seahawks’ High-Powered Offenses May Fall Flat This Season
The Seahawks barely broke a sweat last week. In fact, they probably lost more calories jumping up and down from celebrating big plays than they did from stopping the 49ers. Seattle started the game by hauling in a kickoff and returning it for a touchdown. It was basically downhill from there. Kenneth Walker was a beast, running 19 times for 116 yards and three touchdowns. Sam Darnold needed to throw the ball just 17 times for 124 yards and one touchdown. The Seahawks scored 41 points and Darnold had less than 125 passing yards. That’s wild. There should be credit given to the Seahawks’ defense as well. They forced a turnover on downs in the first 49ers possession, then a fumble recovery on the second. In the second half, San Francisco basically had to go for it at every opportunity, and Seattle was able to stop them repeatedly. I gave a lot of credit to CJ Stroud for the Patriots win, should Brock Purdy and the 49ers get credit for the Seattle win? Probably a little bit.Â
