5. The Bye-Week is needed

The Seahawks are banged up. If it seems that everyone is dealing with a nagging injury, it is because almost everyone is.

Wilson’s multiple injuries, Tyler Lockett’s knee. Doug Baldwin’s knee, Jimmy Graham’s knee, Jarran Reed’s hip, and Germain Ifedi’s ankle make up just the beginning of Seattle’s injury list.

The Seahawks now have two weeks before their next game. All those guys will have a chance to get healthier.

The team will also have a chance to work Nick Vannett into the offense and hopefully get Bradley Sowell some helping pass protection.
