5. A win is a win

Sloppy or not, the Seahawks got the win and moved to 1-0 on the season. Down by 4 with time running out, the Seahawks made the plays they had to make to get the win.

Doug Baldwin bad some amazing catches. Jermaine Kearse added some nice plays. Even Jimmy Graham managed to get in on the action. Ultimately, it was Wilson’s 19th game winning drive in the fourth quarter or overtime.

Now the Seahawks have to begin getting ready the LA Rams next week. A gimpy Russell Wilson vs. Aaron Donald and company won’t be an easy game. They have a lot of work to do in order to be ready for that game.

Next: Just like Pete Carroll drew it up

For now though, an ugly win is better than a pretty loss. We’ll take this win no matter what it looked like.
