What Must Seattle Accomplish to Beat Carolina in Week 3? Locked On Seahawks Podcast
Looking to win their second consecutive game and avenge an ugly loss at home from last December, the Seattle Seahawks will limp into a Week 3 rematch against the Carolina Panthers potentially without several key starters.
After having nine players sidelined in Wednesday's practice, the Seahawks somehow had more players sidelined on Thursday with safety Quandre Diggs and guard Damien Lewis added to the injury report. This came on the heels of placing rookie defensive tackle Mike Morris on injured reserve due to season-ending shoulder surgery.
Given the litany of injuries on both sides of the ball, what must Seattle achieve to avoid an upset to a hungry Carolina squad quarterbacked by capable backup Andy Dalton?
(Yes, the Panthers have officially ruled out prized rookie QB Bryce Young for Sunday’s game, so Dalton starts vs. the Seahawks.)
Hosts Corbin Smith and Nick Lee dish out their weekly keys to victory, including finding ways to pressure the veteran quarterback without blitzing often and establishing a more effective ground attack with Ken Walker III and Zach Charbonnet against a 22nd ranked run defense.
Smith and Lee also dish out their weekly picks to click on offense and defense and make their game predictions. Will the Seahawks cover with a six-point spread? Listen to a new Locked On Seahawks to find out!
