No. 1 Stud – Seattle’s running backs
When Rashaad Penny was drafted in the first round of the 2018 NFL draft, it was expected the Seahawks would employ a 1-2-punch at running back. For the most part, this dream was not realized as Chris Carson took off as the clear No. 1 back.
However, the dream came to fruition on Monday Night as both Carson and Penny had strong performances against one of the best defenses in the entire NFL. Carson bounced back from a forgettable afternoon against the Eagles with 23 carries for 102 yards and a touchdown.
Meanwhile, Penny had 74 yards on 15 carries, along with 33 yards through the air and a receiving touchdown.
When Carson and Penny are both rolling, this Seahawks offense is hard to stop.
