Seattle Seahawks overreaction to Week 10 loss to Tampa Bay
The offense is one dimensional
Coming into this game, the Seattle Seahawks had been operating a balanced offense. They were able to run and pass the ball both very well. The two aspects complimented each other and made the offense that much harder to defend.
However, in this game, the Seattle Seahawks couldn’t run the ball and relied heavily on passing to their main wide receivers. D.K. Metcalf caught six of nine targets for a team-leading 71-yards. And Tyler Lockett caught three of five targets for 42-yards and one touchdown.
Kenneth Walker III rushed only 10 times for 17 yards. However, he tied Metcalf in catches with six and finished second in targets with eight for 55-yards. Meanwhile, Geno Smith completed 70% of his passes for 275-yards and two touchdowns.
Unfortunately, he also impersonated Russell Wilson by holding onto the ball for a long time and getting sacked three times.
And he had a fumble that most definitely took some points off the board for the Seattle Seahawks. This game is one of the worst we’ve seen from this team all season. Their only worse game was the game against San Francisco in Week 2.
Something to look forward to is next week’s game against Las Vegas. Las Vegas is coming off a loss at home to Indianapolis, who just hired a former player with no NFL coaching experience. So, Seattle Seahawk fans have to feel good about their chances of getting back into the win column.
