Big day by Wilson comes with loss of Graham for Seahawks

The Seahawks may not be able to do that against the Steelers because Pittsburgh’s passing attack is more than just Antonio Brown.

Graham, a big-money signing over the summer from the New Orleans Saints, went down clutching his knee early in the fourth quarter as he attempted to reach back and haul in a pass from Wilson.

But the Seahawks also went seven-for-13 on third-down conversions (54 percent). Seattle was in the bottom third of the league in converting third downs into first downs, at around 37 percent for the season, after going 1 for 8 in the loss to the Cardinals on November 15. He has been sacked just twice in each game. “That’s disheartening. It means we’re doing our job on first and second down and not on the most important down”. 500 thing and get going here if we’re going to have a chance. Roethlisberger had taken the Steelers 71 yards in 14 plays, but Tomlin opted for a third field goal from Chris Boswell rather than the chance at a TD and taking the lead. “(Wilson) understands zone coverage and we were in a lot of zone coverage. That is the highest total for a tight end and the eighth-most such games among all players.

Given the play of the defense all game, banking on them in that spot was sure to be second-guessed when they predictably broke down.

Wilson passed for a season-high 345 yards as Seattle (6-5) got three touchdowns from Baldwin and two from fellow receiver Jermaine Kearse.

We give our thoughts on cornerback Antwon Blake and safety Will Allen and how both really are better served being put on the sideline at this point in favor of Brandon Boykin and Robert Golden respectively. “We did see a couple looks like that earlier in the year”.

Shortly thereafter, Tomlin’s field goal call perhaps became more clear when Roethlisberger left the field.

Marcus Wheaton led all Pittsburgh pass catchers with 201 receiving yards on nine catches, while tight end Heath Miller had five grabs for 45 yards before exiting the game with an injury. That’s 21 points off turnovers. But it’s changed; we’re better.

“This is the time when teams make their push for the playoffs”, Heyward said. And then, after the headcase was sent packing last season, the Seahawks still managed to find enough offense to get back to the Super Bowl.

Arthur Moats was also unhappy about the performance, saying, “I’ve got to watch the film”. Gotta digest it and learn from it but can’t dwell on it. You definitely have to tip your hat to them. It’s not a must-win game, but it’s close. He took charge for the Seattle Seahawks against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. “They covered Heath. Al’s the second option on that whole deal”.

“They might have expected it seeing me go into the game (punter Jordan Berry normally holds for field goals) but you still have to execute the play”. “It feels good; it feels right. I think he’s accomplished those”, Wilson said. “He just made a really good play on the ball”.

“He stepped up and covered for me, otherwise I’d have been in the doghouse”, Sweezy said.

Unlike two weeks ago against Cleveland, the Steelers will have Ben Roethlisberger under center from the start. The quarterback had another huge day Sunday, passing for 456 yards, but he couldn’t finish the game because he was undergoing concussion tests. It was evident that running the football wasn’t in the game plan, but the Steelers rushed for only 58 yards on the afternoon (18 coming from Roethlisberger).
