DK is still off the pace. This was his first 100 yard game. However, Lockett is on pace to break the team records for receptions and yards in a season. So much for missing Doug Baldwin.

If they get 1,000 yards each they would balance....

Lockett has been amazing to watch for a few seasons now. It's so good to see that the horrible leg injury he suffered hasn't affected his speed or cuts.
Now that we have DK, Lockett is getting lined up against safeties and the occasional linebacker, and he is getting wide open as a result.
Can you imagine what having Gordon in there is going to do to our 3+ WR sets? Woah.

First we have to actually see Gordon on the field in a Seahawks uni.
Talk about it when/if it happens. More likely he'd take David Moore's snaps and targets.

Tyler's on pace now to break Largent's single season yardage record.

DK will get at least 800 yards. I made that bet on my co-worker. Really hopes he get 800 yards or more, but would love it if they both end up getting 1,000 yards.

Joey Galloway had 1039 yards and 7 TD as a rookie.
DK will pass him on TD's, probably not on yards
Definitely possible. I never imagined it prior to 2-3 games ago.
One, yes...and even that seemed to be a stretch when last year's team had the lowest pass attempts in the league.
DK is amazing. Not seeing the same amount of criticism about his route running now.
Lockett...DK....hopefully healthy/sane Gordon...exciting. Props to Hollister and Dixon but, imagine Uncle Will in the mix.

I'll tell you what, as excited about DK as I was from the time he was drafted....he has been even better than expected. Can't wait to see how good this guy gets. Him and Lock are a hell of a one two punch.

I think DK sets TD and yards mark for Seahawk rookie. And I think Pete genuinely wants him to reach those marks.
In my opinion, his pace is going to accelerate. I don't think Gordon will hold him back significantly. Wilson has already demonstrated he'll target him aggressively and trusts him, evidence being he's gone his way even when covered. He's getting much better at using his frame to create separation, and I especially liked his baby stiff arm on that long facemask pass in OT where he created enough separation at the very end -- but not enough to get an OPI call. He's learning his craft really right before our eyes week to week. He's expanding his role and Schotty is using him in more varied fashion, as evidenced by his routes run over the last 4 weeks compared to the first 5. I expect he has at least 2 more 100 yard games this season. Possibly 4.
I'm seeing him start to learn the little tricks that Michael Irvin came to master as it pertains to receiving as a big physical WR in the NFL. He's learning how to get open at the last second. How to subtly use his body and strength *WHEN* you should as much as *HOW* you should.
Additionally, I think Seattle is now starting to fully embrace the reality that Wilson is going to have to put the team on his back. Our defense is not going to keep us in games. I don't see the running game featuring as much in these final 7 games against superior competition. That means more targets to go around.
