Seahawks QB Drew Lock makes a great block on Kenneth Walker’s 23-yard TD run

Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock made a dynamite block on Kenneth Walker’s 23-yard touchdown run against the Eagles.

SEATTLE — The Seattle Seahawks didn’t do much on either side of the ball in the first half of their game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night at Lumen Field, but they rectified that with 10:03 left in the third quarter. An offense that had been too static in the game’s first 35 minutes changed a bunch of things up with two tight ends in the backfield, and quarterback Drew Lock handing off to running back Kenneth Walker.

As Walker shimmied through Philly’s defenders, Lock got upfield and made a nice block on cornerback Eli Ricks at the end of the 23-yard run, which tied the game at 10-10. Lock was starting for the second straight week in place of Geno Smith, who’s dealing with a groin injury.

The question for Ricks is, what’s the penalty for getting erased by a quarterback?

Predicting the Seattle Seahawks’ prime-time games in 2023

That’s why we are projecting four prime-time games for Seattle this coming season.

The 2023 NFL regular season schedule will be rolled out tomorrow night with all the usual fanfare. The Seahawks used to be virtually guaranteed the maximum five prime-time games per season, but last year they only appeared in two.

First, they opened the regular season with a thrilling one-point win at home against the Broncos on Monday Night Football, then in December they hosted a Thursday night game, ending in another humiliating loss to the 49ers. Seattle also faced Tampa in Munich, which had an international audience but wasn’t technically prime-time.

However, when the 2022 schedule was made most folks thought this team was going to be a bust as the post-Russell Wilson era began. Now we know better and fans should expect more time in the national spotlight. That’s why we are projecting four prime-time games for Seattle this coming season. Here’s who we think they’ll be facing for each matchup.

Why Seattle Seahawks Will Win

The Eagles don’t have the offense to keep up.

They throw way too many interceptions, the passing game isn’t strong enough, and the good running game isn’t getting the job done. On the flip side, Seattle has the potential to turn the lights out in a hurry, leading the NFL in touchdown passes, scoring the second-most points in the league, and it all keeps on coming.

There’s enough balance to be fine, the deep ball ability is among the best in the league, and the O just has to get up fast. Do that, make the Eagles press, and there’s a problem.

Why Philadelphia Eagles Will Win

Take … the ball … away.

The Eagles aren’t great at forcing turnovers, but they need to do it to help the struggling O. When they come up with two takeaways or more, they’re 3-0. When they don’t, they’re 0-6-1.

For all of the great things Seattle does, it has a major issue lately giving the ball away. The offense was clean in the win over Arizona last week, and it didn’t turn the ball over against San Francisco, and the team won both games.  However, it gave it away three times or more three times in four games before last week, and lost all three.

Seattle is 0-3 when turning it over multiple times, and 7-0 when it doesn’t.

Fantasy Football Player To Watch

RB Miles Sanders, Philadelphia 
One of the hot backs on the preseason fantasy draft lists, he’s been a mega-bust with injury issues, not enough receptions, and just three touchdowns with all of them coming in two games. Seattle’s run defense is statistically solid mostly because teams throw to keep up, but commit to the ground game, and it can work. This is when Sanders has to be the centerpiece of the attack.

What’s Going To Happen

The weather should be fine by gametime – it’s supposed to be lousy all day – and Seattle has to prove it can be sharp on the road.

The Seahawks have lost their last three road games and were way too sloppy in all of them. However, there’s no Philadelphia downfield passing game – and not enough scoring – for the Seattle secondary to worry about.

Philly will run effectively – Sanders will have a good day – and a banged up Seahawk team will struggle, but the giveaways won’t be there to lose a fourth game in six weeks.
