(Credit: Seahawks.com) After having two weeks to mull over their loss to the Miami Dolphins, the New York Jets will have a tough task in facing the Seattle Seahawks, in Seattle. The Seahawks are 4-0 at home and their rookie quarterback, Russell Wilson, has played like a seasoned veteran in their building. He has thrown nine touchdowns to zero interceptions, while on the road he shown his rookie tendencies throwing only four touchdowns and eight interceptions. Wilson has been the key at home, where he has averaged a 118.25 passing rating. He has excelled in the play-action passing game and it has resulted in a lot of explosive plays for the Seahawks. This is something the Jets are going to have to watch out for as they are struggling to stop the run; ranking 29th in the league. Wilson’s touch on the long ball at home has been close to perfect as he has hit the majority of his passes of 25+ yards. Sidney R...

Carroll sees growth after studying Redskins

A frustrating loss at St. Louis in Week 4 sent Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll in search of ways to make his offense more productive.
