3. Special teams continue to be a problem
Steven Hauschka had yet another PAT blocked today. This one couldn’t even be blamed on the long snapper. The snap and hold were good, Hauschka just drove the ball way too low.
That doesn’t mean Nolan Frese wasn’t his usual terrible self though. He committed a massive error when he snapped the ball over Jon Ryan’s head for a safety.
That caused a Seahawks legend to to weigh in on Frese.
I think Walter Jones expects Seattle to have a new long snapper next week. pic.twitter.com/vLAEmfy9om

You’re a long-snapper. You have one job. You cannot be giving the opponent free points.
This isn’t a one-time mistake either. There hasn’t been a game this season where Frese has not had a bad snap. This one just happened to be his worst of the year.
