I am sure there are individual outliers that get aggregated into the mix, but some teams handle coast-to-coast travel better than others. Carroll has been around a long time, I am sure he has a set routine for his team traveling. I don't think jet-lag is anything McD is going to count on. Going to be a tough game and Wilson is playing at a very high level with a ton of confidence. Against Cam McD did not have any real respect for his passing ability. I say that because we consistently cheated a lot of bodies up to the line and loaded the box. Having all those guys play close to the LOS disguised a lot of the ugly this team has had getting push, creating pressure, and filling gaps against the run. We will not have that luxury against Wilson. This is going to be a very tough game for our defense and we will need our offense to grind out some long possessions, and our Special Teams to tilt the field to have a shot at knocking these guys off.

Such a clean, unique look. Players apparently love them. Look good, feel good, play good. Edited November 4, 2020 by Tuel Time

From 2010 to 2018 Seattle was outscored 75 to 0 in the first half of playoff games starting at 1pm EST (all West and Mountain teams were outscored 210 to 55 over that period of time). So they have been slow starters in the past. Hope that holds true Sunday and then Allen can keep the offence rolling in the 2nd half.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 Some facts and request for more: Seahawks Defensive PPG given up: 28 Bills Defensive PPG given up: 25 Seahawks Defensive YPG given up: 461. Yes really. Four hundred and sixty one. Check my math. Bills Defensive YPG given up: 358 Seahawks Offensive PPG: 34 Bills Offensive PPG: 25 Seahawks Offensive YPG: 414. Bills Offensive YPG: 372 Where Seasnakes really shine is with takeaway/giveaway. They are +2 in 3 of their games (Falcons, Dallas, 49ers). +1 vs Miami and MN. The only game they lost, vs AZ: -1 Would like to know TOP and scoring differential by quarter.

I heard joe Marino go over some of these numbers on his podcast - the passing yards given up per game is an average of like 358! They aren’t bad vs the run but I wonder what the attempts are there because teams always trying to keep up might pass a lot more

On the other hand, Seattle is perceived as having a tendency to be a slow-starting team. It's why I'm interested in the scoring differential by quarter.

I think they're pretty solid vs the regardless of context. They are only allowing 3.9 per rush. Good for 5th in the league.

That would be great if it holds on Sunday, would be nice to have enough of a lead or cushion before we go into our somewhat predictable 2020 2nd half defensive collapse and/or offensive stall. Outside of the Titans game where they pretty much scored at will (I am not sure if they punted once) McD and Frazier seem to usually have an effective strategy for the 1st half of games, but they usually are not able to counter halftime adjustments. It could be that we just do not have the game-day level of coaching that is needed to make the right changes in real time, or it could be that it takes an enormous amount of coaching-up and strategic planning of the guys we are fielding now just to be competitive in that 1st half of games and we lack the quality of flexible and effective starters to counter the adjustments other teams make with an ad hoc counter strategy. Probably a bit of both, but contrary to some opinions on TBD, I think that Sean has become a better game-day coach than he was his first season here. He was pretty emotional on the sideline that first year and took some wild low-percentage swings at the plate with situational coaching and challenges, but I think his self-scouting and game management has improved. It does not hurt that he seems to embrace surrounding himself with capable people that he is willing to listen to. I remain optimistic and any given Sunday a team can win, but this whole season has left me skeptical of how far this team can go. I don't doubt our player's heart and they have not shown any quit on this coaching staff, but as Yoda would say, "a complete team, they are not".

The defense will need to be improved over the offseason but they are trending in the right direction. They finally found their QB to replace Kelly. It only took 24 years. Team is poised to make the playoffs in 3 of the last 4 years. They will win the division for the first time in a long time. They are not a complete team yet but they are getting there.
