Keys to Victory For Seattle Seahawks at Los Angeles Rams in Week 11 - Locked On Podcast
Getting off to a disappointing start, the Seattle Seahawks suffered numerous injuries during a season-opening 30-13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, including both starting tackles going down early in the second half. As they prepare for round two against their division rivals in Week 11, they will be looking to get even at SoFi Stadium with a healthier roster overall.
After each player sat out the season opener, Seattle will be at full strength in the secondary in this rematch with rookie cornerback Devon Witherspoon and safety Jamal Adams back in the starting lineup. In addition, the addition of defensive tackle Leonard Williams should help the interior pass rush against a suspect Los Angeles offensive line, which will be crucial to turn up the heat on Matthew Stafford after only hitting the quarterback twice with no sacks in Week 1.
What remains unknown heading into Sunday, however, is whether or not the Seahawks will have starting right tackle Abraham Lucas back in the lineup. The second-year blocker returned to practice from injured reserve this week, but coach Pete Carroll suggested on Wednesday that he may not be quite ready to suit up for game action. Getting him back in the fold would help immensely protecting Geno Smith as well as opening up holes in the ground game against the Rams.
