Seattle re-signs Christine Michael to bolster run game

He may have even sped his pace up if anything, as he took the Seahawks to their 8th win of the season. Brown was re-signed Tuesday after having been signed and released by Seattle twice earlier in the season.

“Guys were making plays all over the field”, Wilson said. The offensive line could not manage many holes. “It’s a lot of fun right now”.

Much more importantly, he completed 23 for 32 passes for 292 yards. Wilson then found Seahawks receiver Doug Baldwin for a 14-yard touchdown to lift Seattle to 14-3. With Thomas Rawls (broken ankle) out for the season, Michael now has a chance to contribute.

With the season dwindling down to the last few weeks and the Seattle Seahawks in the middle of a playoff race, they find themselves in a position that they have not been in since they traded for Marshawn Lynch during the 2010 season. QB Matthew Stafford targeted Johnson five times, and the WR converted that into just one catch for 16 yards.

“He is playing unbelievable”, Baldwin said about Wilson. The Seahawks destroyed the Ravens on Sunday, December 13, sending a statement to the rest of the NFL.

You knew with Jimmy Clausen in the starting lineup in place of an injured Matt Schaub, that this was going to be a long day for the offense.

The Seahawks gave up just 28 yards on the ground.

“Thomas has had a fantastic rookie season for us”, Carroll said. “I don’t know the extent of that because his MRI was at noon and we haven’t heard back yet”. Sure, he doesn’t mean it (at least we think), but it’s a way for him to get attention and keep the spotlight on him and away from his teammates. Wilson also wasn’t sacked and hit just once all game. That was an 11-play, 80-yards drive where the Seahawks had only one third down.

“He did break his ankle, but I think the torn ligaments are really the problem”, Carroll said. For the first time since he became the Ravens head coach in 2008, his team is preparing for a game from which they have nothing to gain in the standings, and Harbaugh said the organization will act accordingly. If anyone can lead the Seahawks to the Superbowl again, it is definitely Wilson too.

Smith is in the press box during games, so he gets the television replays in there and relays what he’s seeing down to Carroll over the coaches’ headsets. According to STATS, Wilson is the first quarterback going back to 1960 to have four straight games with a passer rating of 138.5 or higher.

“We’ll see how Marshawn does”, Carroll said Sunday, via the Seattle Times.

Harbaugh, though, said the team’s desire to play its best football and still win games won’t get in the organization’s way of evaluating players – both young ones and veterans – for the future. The Seahawks turned to Rawls because of repeated injuries suffered by Lynch, and Rawls proved to be a revelation. Also, Russell Okung at left tackle has been good, J.R. Sweezy has limited his bad moments to the sort of brainfarts you’d expect from a man named J.R. Sweezy, and Justin Britt… well… four out of five really ain’t bad.

Clausen had some somewhat surprising success early, given that he had thrown for just 63 yards against the Seahawks in September while with the Bears.
