Seahawks Look To Bounce Back, ‘Hard To See Russell Wilson Losing 3 Straight Games’

We’re less than a quarter of the means right into the 2021 period, but up until now it’s appearing like the West is the department to beat in the NFC. The NFC West’s four clubs (Arizona, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle) are a combined 9-3 with a +79 web points total.

With all 4 divisional opponents contesting in week 4, something’s got to provide as two unbeatens aim to remain excellent and the West’s two various other squads try to erase the sting of last week’s collapses.

SportsLine’s Larry Hartstein damages down NFC East competitions in Week 4.

Seattle Seahawks @ San Francisco 49ers, Sunday, October 3, 4:05 p.m.

. The Seahawks and also 49ers will clash for the 46th time this weekend. Far Seattle has actually obtained the better of the Niners extra frequently than not with 28 wins in the series. This year’s Seahawks squad really feels a bit different than years past however. Currently sitting a game under.500 the Hawks are coming off back-to-back losses where they squandered early leads with awful second-half execution. It also does not assist that the Seahawks’ defense is currently last in the league when it pertains to backyards enabled per game.

” They blew that game versus Tennessee,” Hartstein claimed. “They had the large lead and then recently once more in Minnesota, they come out on fire, rating 17 quick points, do not rack up a factor in the 2nd fifty percent. I do not believe it’s so much of the infraction being the problem, it’s the protection. They’ve quit one of the most backyards in all of football, 440 per game. That is not enabling the violation to jump on the field enough.

Kyle Shanahan and also the 49ers also tasted defeat last week, yet set up a wonderful fight against the Green Bay Packers. Had any type of quarterback besides Aaron Rodgers been under center in that match San Francisco would likely be 3-0 now.

” You consider this 49ers group that played quite possibly offensively against Green Bay,” Hartstein claimed. “But they suffered extra injuries in the second. Aaron Rodgers chose them apart.”

San Francisco hasn’t been particularly excellent on either side of the round this year, but they’re strong across the board. It deserves noting that their two high-scoring games early this period have actually protested the Lions as well as Packers, the worst and also fifth-worst racking up defenses in the NFC.

When it comes to a last forecast, Hartstein sees the Seahawks having a leg, or wing, up.

” It’s hard to see Russell Wilson shedding 3 straight games,” Hartstein stated. “I think Russell Wilson is going to have lots of success. This is going to be a shootout, since I do not think either team can quit the other.”

Arizona Cardinals @ Los Angeles Rams, Sunday, October 3, 4:05 p.m.

. The Cardinals and also Rams account for six of the division’s 9 wins through 3 weeks, each being available in at a best 3-0. Both teams personify the modern-day NFL with their high-powered offenses. Matthew Stafford enters week 4 with 9 passing goals, 2nd just to the age-less Tom Brady. Arizona’s signal caller, Kyler Murray, has 7 ratings via the air as well as another three on the ground. As a team, the Cardinals are connected for first in factors scored with 103 and the Rams are just a couple of tallies behind, placed third in the organization with 95.

It’s been smooth sailing essentially for both of these groups although they both had near drops in week 2. The Rams took a tight one in Indianapolis 27-24 and also the Cardinals squeaked past the Vikings 34-33. Each team recoiled perfectly with a double number victory recently as Los Angeles took down “Age-less Tom” and also the defending Super Bowl Champion Buccaneers and also the Cards subjugated the Jaguars.

With the fight of NFC West unbeatens decreasing this Sunday in LA, Hartstein is leaning in the direction of the kids in yellow and also blue.

” They’re both 3-0. When you take a look at Arizona, they most likely must have lost to the Vikings,” Hartstein claimed. “They missed out on a chip-shot field goal, Minnesota does, that would have beaten Arizona. Arizona goes to Jacksonville, was down 19-10 with that crazy kick return prior to halftime but then they get a Trevor Lawrence picks-six to transform it around as well as cover. You got to actually appreciate that, because that was a drowsy spot for Arizona with this game on deck and yet they still covered the number. But every one of that stated, I’m a lot more pleased with the Rams and also Matthew Stafford in this violation, which is precisely what Sean McVay has been fantasizing about. And afterwards you consider the competition. He has actually possessed the Cardinals, Sean McVay is 8-0. He’s set up 30 points in almost all of those with the ordinary margin of success around 20.”
