The Seahawks versus Falcons Week 3 match was pegged to be the number 1 overall pick in the 2023 draft bowl, and judging by how Seattle played, they clearly won this one by a mile.

Call this game the battle for the #1 overall pick or the battle of the journeyman quarterbacks, whatever we called this game, the Seattle Seahawks appeared to be no threat to anyone. Although not everything about this game was bad, the Seahawks however showed that the team is nowhere close to being able to competitively challenge any team this year.

There is no other way to sugarcoat this lowly defeat by the Seahawks against the Falcons at home.  This is to no one’s surprise on how poorly this team has been, even with their Week 1 victory over their ex-quarterback Russell Wilson.

However, it is how poorly and lethargic the team had been playing that’s giving everyone the 12 migraines.

3 thoughts on the Seahawks losing to the Falcons in Week 3

If this was any other game against a division rival or a perennial playoff-contending team, then we might be able to give the Seahawks a pass, but against the Falcons? Don’t get me wrong on this one, I am not saying the Falcons are a horrible team, but they are not a world-beater, not by a long shot.

All I am saying is if this was a battle between two teams that were projected to be at the bottom of league standings, where do the Seahawks go after this defeat?

We were not anticipating the Seahawks to be good this season but if this game is any indication of what is to come, Seattle will be in for a long grinding season. Let’s just hope, that better things are on the horizon for this team. With that, here are the 3 takeaways from this game.
