Love Watching Defense



Watching the Seattle Seahawks playing the last three weeks with their high powered defense back is so enjoyable. I would say most people enjoy watching high powered offense but the Seahawks show defense can be enjoyed as well. This week on Sunday they played the Philadelphia Eagles who run a fast pace offense. In the same way the Seahawks slowed down the Denver Broncos to a crawl in the last Super Bowl they did the same way. Other teams should follow the Seahawks in the same manner playing defense; however, I would say other teams do not have the same personnel or talent the Seahawks have on defense. If you wonder where the defense had been before the last three weeks the Seahawks have had a lot of injuries on the defensive; however, most of the players are back now especially linebacker Bobby Wagner and safety Cam Chancellor who are key players on the defense. The defense was so dominated the Eagles only had 139 total yards for the game. It was the lowest total yardage game coach Chip Kelly of the Eagles has ever had in a game including his time at University of Oregon.


This coming Sunday December 14 the Seahawks will be playing the San Francisco 49ers again this time in Seattle. The Seahawks one the first game against 49ers on Thanksgiving 19-3; the game really was not even that close. On Sunday they lost to the Oakland Raiders so most expect the 49ers will lose to the Seahawks again. If the Seahawks defense is even close to what it have been the last three games they should win very easy. The 49ers offense has fallen apart the last three games. If the Seahawks continue to play this dominating defense they should be favored to win the Super Bowl again.
