The Seattle Seahawks had high hopes for their matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, October 20th. Unfortunately, the Seahawks were unable to capitalize on their opportunities and fell to the Ravens 30-16. The loss was a major disappointment for the Seahawks, who had been riding a wave of momentum after winning their previous two games.
The Seahawks had a few bright spots in the game, including a strong performance from quarterback Russell Wilson. Wilson threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns, but was unable to get the offense going in the second half. He was sacked six times and was constantly under pressure from the Ravens’ defense.
The Seahawks’ defense also struggled against the Ravens. They allowed Baltimore to score on five of their six possessions in the first half, and allowed them to convert on seven of their nine third-down attempts. The Seahawks were unable to generate any pressure on Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who threw for 143 yards and two touchdowns.
The Seahawks’ special teams unit also had a rough outing. They allowed two long returns, one of which resulted in a touchdown for the Ravens. They also failed to convert on a fake punt attempt in the fourth quarter, which ultimately sealed the victory for Baltimore.
Overall, it was a disappointing performance from the Seahawks. They were unable to capitalize on their opportunities and were outplayed by the Ravens in all three phases of the game. If they want to turn things around and make a run at the playoffs, they will need to find a way to improve their play in all areas of the game.
