Coach Talk

Blink
A lot of cake, no icing: The four starting offensive position players on Blink (two RBs, one WR, one TE) combined to record a whopping 294 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players was able to score a touchdown in Week 1.
Zach Attack
Sheesh, this close loss can be placed more on the Seahawks coaches than on the quarterback. This week's game script required the QB to attempt only 23 passes, and Russell Wilson did all he could: completing a spectacular 78 percent of them!
