I am still not impressed with the defense. Granted they are rotating a lot of players, but there were three really bad plays on that drive.
Maybe Teddy and AD on the 2nd drive??? :o

@JReidDraftScout Shamar Stephen continues to flash. He's been great this preseason.

Either Teddy got sick/injured on the flight to Seattle or our offensive line is not even ready for preseason play.

If it's due to that illegal crackback I'm going to be pissed.

Hill is bad. We'd probably be better off doing open tryouts for a backup QB.

Sack and short yardage stop on 3rd and 4th down. It's preseason so you're not going to see anything fancy. Newman got beat on one play but it was a really good throw by Wilson.

I would like them to play Stave against Seattle's better defense to see what he can do. I have zero faith in Hill, and I will be surprised if he makes the team, quite frankly.

He got up and nearly made the tackle on that play, so if that's when it happened, it didn't look too bad. Still was a jerk move though.
