Talk about putting pressure on Kam Chancellor to come back! If the holdout Pro Bowl safety were to watch Bailey, starting in his place, make a bunch of big hits and pick off an errant Foles pass or two…..
And Bailey could get the chance to shine. The Rams will surely try to test the first-year starter, but the Seahawks front 7 looks like it could be dominating, making it even more exciting to play on the back end. Foles has never been known for his accuracy. If he’s having to run for his life, and is dead set on taking shots at Bailey, the USC alum will see plenty of chances to make a statement.
A statement heard all the way back to wherever Kam Chancellor is watching the Seahawks vs Rams.
