Seattle Seahawks October 2020 preview
By Jake Luppino
The Seahawks will make their way down to the Sunshine state to take on the Miami Dolphins week 4.
Sunday, October 4, 2020: Week 4 – Seattle Seahawks @ Miami Dolphins
The Seattle Seahawks begin their month of October on the road against the Dolphins. While many feel the Dolphins will be an easy win, I think otherwise. You can not judge a team by its record nor can you judge them by the timeline they are on. What I mean by that is the Dolphins are on a different timeline than the Seahawks. Many feel the Seattle is a Super Bowl contender just like most think the Dolphins are in rebuild mode.
If you are a football fan, the first thing you know is that football is a game of inches, and the saying “Any Given Sunday” means any-and-every team has a chance of winning their game when the ball gets kicked off. The Dolphins drafted Alabama quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, who has yet to make his debut in the NFL.
I personally think the Dolphins found their quarterback of the future, but they are saving him until the right moment. Ryan Fitzpatrick is coming off a great performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars and has given the Dolphins no reason to bench him.
The Miami Dolphins are currently sitting at 1-2. In week 2, they almost beat the red hot Bills because this Dolphins team is well-coached and does not give up.
What Will Determine the Outcome: The Seahawks offense is red hot
There is no denying that Seattle has one of the best offenses in the league. This is without Rashard Penny, Philip Dorsett and Josh Gordon. When all three are on the field with Lockett, Metcalf and Olsen, this offense will hit a whole another level of explosive. But, for now, the Seahawks are likely to be without Chris Carson on Sunday. That means we will be seeing a lot of Carlos Hyde and the former Miami Hurricane, Travis Homer.
The Seahawks will once again rely on the arm of Russell Wilson and he will once again, deliver. The Seahawks are currently averaging 37 points per game, which ranks as the second-best in the NFL behind the Green Bay Packers. The Miami Dolphins are currently allowing 21.7 points per game. With an injury to star CB Byron Jones, I do not see this Dolphins team being the one who stops the future MVP.
Also, keep in mind this is another east coast game for the Seahawks. The Seahawks have been deadly in east coast games and will look to continue their winning streak in this one. I have Wilson dropping five more touchdowns in ensuring a 4-0 start to the year. I also see the rookie DE, Alton Robinson, racking up another sack in this one.
