Can Seahawks Snap Three-Game Losing Skid?

After a 3-0 start to this season, one in which head coach Mike Macdonald was receiving early NFL Coach of the Year consideration, the Seattle Seahawks have lost three straight games to fall to 3-3 on the year. The defense of the Seahawks has betrayed them over the last few weeks, as Seattle has allowed 35.6 points per game during their recent losing streak. If they want to get back above the .500 mark with a win in this game, they are going to need to find a way to dig in and get some stops on defense.

Falcons Firing On All Cylinders

While the Seahawks have lost three games in a row, the Atlanta Falcons have won three in a row to improve to 4-2 on the season. Atlanta put up 38 points in a double-digit win over the moribund Carolina Panthers in their last outing, as Kirk Cousins and the Atlanta offense has averaged 37 points per game over the last two weeks. Against a Seahawks team that has really struggled to get defensive stops of late, this could be a golden opportunity for the Falcons to put up another big number on the scoreboard.
