This is a who-are-you game for the Seahawks. Was their hot start a product of an easy schedule, or was the recent skid a product of two elite defenses? Before the Browns game, the Hawks were in the top ten in every significant efficiency category besides pass defense. Now, they are 17th in pass defense, 22nd in run defense, 20th in passing, and 6th in rushing.
So, who are the Seattle Seahawks?
My money's on them being the team we saw for the first six games. On paper, that team beats the Commanders handily. Howell will take risks down the field, and our secondary will make plays. And the Commanders have the 30th-ranked pass defense with a recently neutered pass rush; Geno should feast.
Prediction: 42-31 Seahawks
Bold Prediction: Woolen gets 2 Ints. Howell throws 4 Ints. Geno has a 4 TD game—DK punches Geno in the face during a TD celebration.
