This team is average , and that isn't a slight against Seattle. They have some nice building blocks , rookies and 2nd and 3rd year players but they were out schemed today by a pretty damn good coach in McDaniels .
They had no answer for Jacobs , you let that dude average 5 yards per carry and I guarantee you'll have problems. On the other hand , Seattle knocks Carr out of the game in the 1st 5 minutes and then never really bothered him again..ok maybe once I can remember.
On offense, Seattle had no balance , they couldn't run and completely abandoned the idea. I thought Seattle wanted to run? Hmmm oh well.
I'm not an expert regarding Xs and Os nor will I try to act like I do but every time I watched Seattle's center , he was getting abused by the raiders. The raiders won the line of scrimmage. Seattle might have gotten into overtime but the loss feels worse. Seattle was lucky for overtime.
They have to nail this next draft , they don't have the offensive or defensive line to win a championship.
