The Packers (especially Dom Capers) own Russell Wilson. Look at the games we have played against the Packers in the Russell Wilson era.
He has had a good game ONE time in 6 tries. The Season Opener in 2014 where we blew out the Packers, and even then Wilson had less than 200 yards passing. The 5 other games? He was TERRIBLE. You could argue that the Seahawks should have lost all 5, but were saved in the last minute by miracles: The Hail Mary to Tate and the Miracle comeback in the NFC Championship. The other two games that were losses (other than today) are the 2 worst games of the Russell Wilson era in terms of how much the Hawks lost by (10 and 28 points).
The Packers own Wilson. I don't know what they do differently, but this game was normal. Wilson always struggles against them—every single time.
Add in the fact that this game was in Green Bay, and the writing was on the wall. The Hawks will bounce back. There is no reason to overreact. The Hawks have played like this against the Packers (and much worse) in their best years.
