This loss to the Atlanta Falcons will hurt for a while. In a game that Seattle won on stats alone, it lost because it did not take care of the football that led directly to Atlanta points, which was the difference in this game. You can point to the Blair Walsh fake attempt and the miss at the end as the reasons we lost, but that would be missing the point…pun intended. 🙂

In a game that will be remembered more for the day Richard Sherman was injured, than the win itself. None the less, it moved the Seahawks season record to 6-3, and in the competitive playoff hunt in the NFC. Seattle currently sits as the 5th playoff team and a wild card berth.

The Seahawks problems in this game went well beyond the three missed field goal attempts by Blair Walsh, all wide left. While it is easy to pin this loss on him after losing by 3 points on Sunday, there were many other contributing fractures.
