Denver-For all the problems that slowed the Seahawks' progress on Sunday, their first game of the season in Denver fell to final possession.
The Seahawks were beaten by the Broncos by 164 yards in a possible 27-24 loss, but the defense came with three interceptions, two of which were converted into touchdowns, helping Seattle stay in the game; the offensive was only 2 for 12 ranked third, but also had a number of big games; The defense has sometimes shown its novelty, leaving large pieces of land, but sometimes the first seven seemed big and the high school enjoyed great games by Earl Thomas and Bradley McDougald.
In other words, there were a lot of encouraging signs in the first game of the season in Seattle, but unfortunately for the Seahawks, there were too many negatives that contributed to a defeat early in the season.
"It is unfortunate today that we have not found a way to win this victory," said Seahawks coach Pete Carroll. "It was really hard for people to beat those guys here over the years, and I knew that, and we had a chance to win late in the game. Even in spite of all that had happened early, it prevented us from better controlling it. So it's frustrating not to have one. They did a good job finishing the match. They finished the game by moving the ball and turning the stopwatch. All this, then you have to give it back to them, the Broncos have done a good job. "
In attack, the Seahawks did not have the game as they hoped, but they were treated to a lot of big games in the game, including a 51-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson to Tyler Lockett and a 66 court take and physical run by late-end rookie Will Dissly. But again, third-level woes, often caused by earlier problems, kept the offensive at a big game.
"In this game, similar things happened, you heard the previous themes, the third ones were ugly and we were three and nine, six times or whatever. And we did not run as well as we wanted and we found ourselves several times, which is just similar and disappointing problems on the offensive. "
On the other side, Carroll played well, but also the problems that can arise with many new starters on the field, including recruits Shaquem Griffin and Tre Flowers.
"Defensively, we played very well and we gave them easy games," Carroll said. "They scoured a flat run for a 30-yard touchdown pass and threw a crossing for a 40-yard touchdown pass. These are very easy games not to miss, and these are important games in this game. There were a lot of good things played at the line of scrimmage at times, then we gave up racing games in delay. It's not a very clean game for us, but after all that, we felt like we could win this game and we really had the chance to do it. It's really frustrating, I can see the novelty of us – we had problems with some aspects of the defense, we made mistakes, things that were easy to clean, but they came in and they were a problem. We have a lot of work to do, but we have a lot of fights and we ran like mad and we ended up doing games, getting the turnovers we wanted to see and having the chance other direction if we could have enjoyed everything that. "
Wilson, who threw three touchdowns and was intercepted twice – the second of which was in desperation in the last game of the match – said it was positive that the attack was able to score three touchdowns and play big games in a match. no one felt close to his best performance.
"We were playing games, not even at our best, so that's the most exciting thing. That's what you're looking forward to, "Wilson said, noting that the offense is" up to the challenge "to rebound well from this loss. "It would never have been easy. If it was easy, everyone would do it. For us, we look forward to the challenge of improving, continuing to improve and continuing to do what we do best. "
McDougald, who had two interceptions, agreed with Wilson saying, "We are very close. I feel it. In the game, you could feel it harder. It's a game here, we play it.
Center Justin Britt added, "We have just returned to work. There are a lot of positives to develop and learn. We just have to continue. It will not define us. We are a very good team and there are many good things that will happen in the future. "
And for fans looking for a win on the money, Wilson said the match reminded him of the start of his rookie year, a possible playoff season that began with a defeat in Arizona.
"It was a difficult and difficult season, but we finished 11-5," he said. "There is a lot of season left. What's great is that these young players come in and play, and that will be a good thing for us, and I'm really looking forward to it. "
