We have been here before under Carroll.
In 2015, the Seahawks had a 4-5 record and were coming off a demoralizing 39-32 loss to Arizona (at home, no less).
Lynch was injured and basically done. Graham (our recent big trade acquisition) was IR'd with a career-threatening injury. Paul Richardson, our high draft prospect, was IR'd. Rawls, our replacement RB, had to be IR'd. Kam Chancellor was injured. The offensive line was bad all year, having failed to replace Unger or Carpenter.
They managed to go 6-1 in those final seven games and made the playoffs, primarily because Russell Wilson refused to let them lose when their backs were against the wall.
Fast forward to 2018, Wilson appears to be hitting his stride. The offensive line and running game are much better than they were in 2015. The play calling is much better. The red zone scoring is immensely better. They have a chance to set a new high for scoring during the Carroll Era. I'm excited to see if Wilson can once again find a way to will them to victory down the stretch.
