Seattle Seahawks: Takeaways vs San Francisco Part 2
Vintage Russell Wilson
I’m not sure what changed for Wilson this week. But this was his best game back from the finger injury, bar none. This looked much more like the vintage Wilson offense we’ve all seen during his time in Seattle. Being efficient with his throws, lobbing successful deep shots on beautiful passes, and scrambling or positive yards when nothing is there.
Defense Making Timely Plays
Finally, we’ll keep the positivity rolling. Just like the Seattle Seahawks hope to keep winning. The defense wasn’t great. Giving up 23 points in a game is flirting with disaster. Especially when it’s 23 points in the first half. Shutting out an opponent for a half is impressive. Even more impressive when the shutout comes in the second half of the game.
Look this defense isn’t good. However, it made timely plays. For example, getting off on third downs. San Francisco only converted three of their 10 third downs. They also generated three turnovers. Forcing Jimmy Garoppolo into two interceptions and knocking the ball out on The Special Teams.
Back corner. Too pretty. @DangeRussWilson ➡️ @TDLockett12

This defense doesn’t need to be great. It just needs to make timely plays to help the offense. Repeating this performance should be easy next week. As previously mentioned the Seattle Seahawks will be traveling to Houston. There they hope to keep the wins rolling and go 3-1 against the AFC South.
