It’s only early in this game, but our Seahawks are already staring down a 14-3 deficit against the Broncos after RJ Harvey just punched in another touchdown for Denver. This isn’t how anyone in the Emerald City wanted to start, especially when a good chunk of that lead feels self-inflicted.
Denver’s Ground Attack Is Rolling
The Broncos opened the scoring with JK Dobbins getting into the end zone, and then it was Harvey’s turn. On their second drive, he took a direct snap for another touchdown, extending Denver’s lead to 14-3. This dude’s clearly feeling it tonight, because after having only seven rushing yards and zero receptions last week, Harvey has already racked up 10 rushing yards, 31 receiving yards, and that touchdown in just two drives. He’s a key part of their offensive attack right now, and the Hawks are struggling to contain him.
Our Seahawks Are Shooting Themselves in the Foot
Look, the Broncos are playing well, but the Seahawks are making it way too easy for them. We are literally shooting ourselves in the foot with penalties, and it is costing us big time. On the Broncos’ last touchdown drive, our guys got called for a facemask on third down. Without that flag, Denver would’ve punted the ball, plain and simple. Instead, they kept the drive alive. Then, to twist the knife, Seattle got hit with a pass interference penalty that set the Broncos up on the one-yard line. Guess what happened next? Harvey scored the touchdown off that very play.
The Seahawks need to respond in a hurry if they are going to get back into this football game. They’ve got to clean up these mental errors, especially those penalties, and force Denver to earn every single yard. We need to see a much sharper second half from our squad.
