Know Your Enemy: Seattle Seahawks

Found November 12, 2011 on Ebony Bird:
PLAYERS: Matt Hasselbeck,  Peyton Manning

Unless the Rams or Colts draft Andrew Luck and decide to trade Bradford or Peyton Manning, it seems pretty obvious that the Seahawks will be drafting a QB.As for who they’ll draft, that depends greatly on where they end up in terms of the Draft order.

But the fact remains that the Seahawks kicker was essential to their 22-17 win over Baltimore on Sunday, tying a single-game franchise record with five made field goals.

After beating the Pittsburgh Steelers last weekend, the Ravens have touched down in Seattle, where they will play the Seahawks on Sunday afternoon. The Seahawks were a playoff team a season ago (mostly by default, though, because they won the woeful NFC West with a 7-9 record), but they have won just two games in 2011.
