The Seahawks are coming off of a thrilling 48-45 win against the Detroit Lions last Sunday. On the day, Detroit’s offense averaged 5.8 yards a carry whilst the Seahawks defense only registered one...

Even with his accolades as a top-tier cover guy, Lattimore is one of the NFL’s more inconsistent corners. He has games where he looks like he can shut down any receiver in the league, but on the flip side he has plenty of head scratching moments too. Sunday’s game against the Vikings exemplified that; in the first half he looked great but in the second half it was a different story. He allowed Justin Jefferson to create consistent separation with relative ease.

On the first play it looks like Lattimore is selling out for a go ball, which allows Jefferson to create a ton of separation at the stem of the route. On the second play Lattimore allows Jefferson to get a free release off of the line despite playing tight to the line. This allows the wideout to get up to his top speed in a few steps which allows him to run right by the Lattimore.Which Lattimore shows up will dictate a large portion of this game.

Despite registering five combined tackles and 2 QB hits on the day, Hutchinson did not make the impact in this one that I was expecting him to, so the edge goes to the offensive line. The Seahawks offensive line is holding up a lot better than I think a lot of us expected coming into the season. Geno Smith has only been sacked 6 times through four games and the running game is averaging 5.2 yards per attempt which is tied for the fourth highest mark in the league.

The Lions rushed the ball 25 times for 145 yards which was good for 5.8 yards a tote. Despite Jamaal Williams accounting for 51 of his 108 rushing yards on the day on a single carry he was consistently able to gain 4 to 5 yards a rush outside of that long run. Seattle’s rushing defense is looking more and more concerning as the season progresses. If this team wants to have any shot at making the postseason it is something they are going to have to figure out sooner rather than later.
