THE BAD

The offensive line: Although he put up 64 yards on the ground, Wilson quickly learned that the Green Bay defense was not afraid of his ability to escape from pressure – he was hit 10 times over the course of the game, five of which were sacks. The right side of the unit struggled the most – tackle Germain Ifedi had serious difficulty against Packers edge rusher Za’Darius Smith – and the number of plays when Wilson had to run for his life reached the double digits. Thankfully for the Seahawks, Wilson can make some serious plays with his legs, but the team needs to rebuild and revitalize the offensive line this season to protect their MVP-caliber quarterback long-term.

Jadeveon Clowney, penalty king: Clowney was all over the stat sheet against the Packers, for both defensive plays and penalties. This particular note focuses less on his stellar play and more about the three flags that he drew, beginning with a personal foul on the last drive of the second quarter in which he tackled Packers tight end Jace Sternberger by the helmet at the Seattle 27. What would have been third-and-8 after Sternberger’s run turned into a Green Bay first down at the Seattle 13; however, this was not the most costly penalty of the drive for Clowney, as he later jumped offsides on third-and-goal to set up an Aaron Jones one-yard touchdown run that increased the Packers’ lead to 18 points. Clowney also picked up a defensive holding call on one of the last drives of the game.

Penalties have been an issue for the Seahawks throughout the season (through 18 games, they have racked up 126 penalties for 1,043 yards), and Clowney follows only Germain Ifedi for the most-penalized member on the team with 12 total flags. With this three-penalty performance, he matches his total from the Oct. 27 match against the Atlanta Falcons.

No answers for Adams: The Seahawks knew going into the game that  Packers’ Davante Adams is a special football player; nevertheless, they seemed completely lost when trying to cover him. Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers targeted Adams for all four quarters, and the wide receiver responded brilliantly with 160 yards and two touchdowns. It didn’t seem to matter who covered Adams – he excelled across the middle, giving all of Seattle’s safeties absolute fits, but he also burned cornerback Tre Flowers multiple times and drew a pass interference call against CB Shaquill Griffin. The Seahawks’ defensive backs have shined at times this season, but the unit as a whole could use some fine-tuning in the offseason to find ways to shut down elite wideouts such as Adams in the future.
