NFL: An answer to the identity question?

When the NFL’s calendar planners had thought about setting up the Sunday Night Games in Week 4, they probably had something else in mind than two teams that were able to reap their only season’s victories in trembling games after three weeks.And this against teams that have even greater problems than the Seattle Seahawks (1-2) and the Indianapolis Colts (1-2) themselves.But for both teams, the meeting could be a decisive springboard for the rest of the season.The game can be seen live at DAZN on Monday night.

While the expectations of the Colts had already been dampened by Andrew Luck’s persistent abstinence before the start of the season, the worry lines on the Seahawks’ side only became really big during the start of the season.An offensive fireworks display is not to be expected, but a surprisingly tight game.

The Colts celebrated their first win of the season last weekend, even if it was only the Cleveland Browns.Jacoby Brissett seems to be getting along with the new playbook after one month and developing a chemistry with the other players “Brissett has done a great job in a short time.It’s hard to learn the new system and terminology,”said head coach Chuck Pagano about his quarterback against Cleveland for two rushing scores.

On the other hand, the Seahawks in Tennessee experienced their second defeat of the season, when they suddenly had to face questions about their own identity. The defence, which was once described as elitist, scored 33 points and ranked 23rd on the grid.We’ve made several grave mistakes that cost us dearly,”said Pete Carroll after the Nashville bankruptcy,” Good running backs were able to capitalize on them and maximize it.

After the defeats against the Packers and Titans as well as a trembling defeat against the 49ers, however, the problems in the offensive line stand out first and foremost.According to Football Outsiders, she’s 24th.The second place in the run-block and a surprising 14th place.I’m going to be in the adjusted bag rate.Less reason to rub his eyes is the 42.3 percent of Wilson’s dropbacks, where he has pressure.Worst score in the league.

The staff rotation has started at Oday Aboushi, who will join the line as Right Guard for Mark Glowinski.At least a small glimmer of hope for a running game that hasn’t found its way into the season yet.Against a top-ten-rushing defense, Rookie Chris Carson will once again be in the breach.

However, the magic seems to have been lost somewhere in recent years.Many a Seahawks fan’s mouth watering over memories of the exploitability, effective read options and Percy Harvin in the 2012-14 Seahawks Offense slot.But the high-speed offense has turned into a handful of Wilson’s magic pieces to transport Seattle across the field.Eight passports of more than 20 yards and a 29-yard scramble of Wilson’s make up 30 percent of the Seahawks’ offense.

In the Defense, the run-stop continues to cause serious problems.DeMarco Murray’s 75 yard touchdown was the longest legal run in the Carroll era.The 195 allowed rushing yards were the highest permitted value since 2013.There are also seven offside penalties, two Neutral Zone infractions and two fouls for 12 men on the field in three games.The tendency to roughness fouls is less uncharacteristic.Not true, Mr.Sherman?

For Indianapolis, the defensive side has to make difficult decisions.Are you attacking the Seahawks-O-Line centrally and hoping that outside-linebacker John Simon, Jabaal Sheard and a secondary that is anything but saddle-tight can defend the corners?Or are you attacking from the outside and betting on the discreetly improved Interior Defense?Limiting Wilson’s mobility is essential.

On the offensive side, one must hope for the development of Jacoby Brissett.In the sparsely populated receiving corps, this has at least T. Y.Hilton found a grateful customer in the Brown’s game.Hilton could be an important factor for Underneath routes.If the Colts Yards after Catch come about, the offense could find a rhythm.

Besides Luck, the Colts have to give up Marlon Mack, Chester Rogers and Ryan Kelly in the offensive area.Anthony Walker and Quincy Wilson are defensively absent.Question marks are the hallmarks of Matthias Farley and Chris Milton.

The seahawks are expected to be on C. J.Prosise have to renounce.Doug Baldwin and Corner Neiko Thorpe are considered questionable.
