Travis Homer Will Need To Have A Big Game
Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer struggled in last week's game against the Eagles, but he's probably going to be a critical weapon in Seattle's game against Green Bay this Sunday. While Homer only gained 12 yards on 11 carries against Philly, the Packers have been one of the most susceptible teams in the league […]

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has faced a few stingy defenses this year, and so far he's won more of those games than he's lost. This week, he'll face another strong passing defense, and if he's going to win, he's going to have to do it in one of the toughest places in the league. […]

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney was critical in the Seahawks Defense preventing Philadelphia from scoring a single touchdown in Seattle's win on Sunday. Unfortunately, he'll be far more remembered for the brutal hit he laid on Carson Wentz that forced Wentz out of the game due to a concussion. While the initial hit appeared […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoJacob Hollister Has A Rough Day In Philly
Seattle Seahawks tight end Jacob Hollister had one of the worst games of his career on Sunday. It wasn't just that Hollister only caught two passes for a total of 16 yards.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore didn't set any records like his teammate D.K. Metcalf did, but he played a huge role in Sunday's win against the Eagles. First, while working as the team's punt returner, Moore made a fair catch on Philly's first punt. However, the Eagles' gunner apparently completely missed it, and he […]

Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch didn't put up a run worthy of decades of highlight reels again, but handshakes were all around as Lynch battered his way through a handful of defenders to plunge his way into the end zone from five yards out.

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer gave everyone some excitement last week when it looked like he might be able to handle the primary role in the backfield for the Seahawks, but Sunday's game will make everyone think twice.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett isn't the one getting all the headlines following Sunday night's win over the Eagles, but he put up a fine performance.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf showed he was bigger than the moment on Sunday night when he roasted the Eagles in his first career playoff game.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson didn't have the best game of his career on Sunday night in Philadelphia, but he made the throws that he needed to make when he needed to make them.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoJason Myers May Be Critical To Victory
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers was perfect the last time he kicked in Philly, drilling a short field goal and a pair of extra points.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoD.K. Metcalf Has Chance For Redemption
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf will get his first crack at the playoffs on Sunday when Seattle visits the Philadelphia Eagles for the second time this season. In blustery, rainy conditions the first time around, Metcalf had an ugly drop on a touchdown pass that hit him directly in the hands. Seattle would hang […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoDavid Moore Could Play A Big Role
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore could end up being one of the team's key components in Sunday's playoff game. With Malik Turner out and Jaron Brown questionable, Moore will be the team's clear-cut No. 3 receiver.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoRussell Wilson Looks To Play Better In Philly
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson won when he went to Philadelphia in Week 12, but he'll hope to play better en route to a win this time around.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoTyler Lockett Should See Lots Of Work
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett just finished the first 1,000-yard season of his career, and now he'll get the chance to play a key role in Seattle's run for a championship.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoJason Myers Finishes With Three More Extra Points
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers knocked through every kick presented to him on Sunday night, but all three were for extra points instead of field goals.

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Tre Flowers made a couple of huge plays to help keep the Seahawks in it early.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoTyler Lockett Finishes With A Dependable Performance
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett has slid right into the role that Doug Baldwin left behind. Undersized and somewhat ignored, Lockett hauled in 82 of 110 passes thrown his way this season, finishing with a 6-for-7 performance against San Francisco on Sunday night. His 1,052 yards won't win him any postseason awards across the […]

Ekeler was on the precipice of breaking the 1,000-yard mark for receiving yards, giving LA a trio of 1,000-yard receivers, but he ended up just seven yards short of the mark. […]
