Special teams are going to be a major strength
I’ve already mentioned Tyler Lockett, who instantly upgrades Seattle’s return units. He isn’t the only one who looked great in this game.
Kicker Steven Hauschka hit a 60 yard field goal with just seconds left on the clock to give the Seahawks the win. He also nearly hit one from 58. Hauschka has been the bulk of Seattle’s offense in the preseason, which has been high on FGs and low on TDs.
John Ryan made the most of his extensive playing time as well. The punter crushed one 62 yards, and pinned three punts inside the 20. Combined with a stellar coverage unit, the Seahawks have a great looking punt team this year.
