Seahawks vs. Titans Key Players to Watch
Seattle Seahawks
Kenneth Walker III: The second-year running back had a solid bounce-back game against the Eagles in Week 15. Walker III was a one-man wrecking crew in the backfield, totaling 112 yards and a rushing touchdown on 22 touches. The 23-year-old Walker will try to capitalize on that performance heading into this week’s game against the Titans.
Tennessee Titans
DeAndre Hopkins: The veteran wide receiver is coming off a rough game against the Texans last week, where he had two receptions (nine targets) for 21 yards. This season, Hopkins has been one of the lone bright spots on the offense, with 59 receptions for 919 yards and six TDs. He will hope to get back on track this week with potentially a new quarterback under center as Will Levis is dealing with an ankle sprain.
Seahawks vs. Titans Prediction and Pick
The Seahawks salvaged their season last week with a 20-17 win over the Eagles, snapping their four-game losing streak. Seattle got a solid performance from backup QB Drew Lock, who made his second straight start for Geno Smith. Lock completed 22-of-33 passes for 208 yards and a touchdown.
Smith should be back on the field for this week’s game against a Titans’ pass defense that has allowed 226.4 yards per game (22nd in the NFL). If Walker can run the ball like he did against the Eagles, it will help the Seahawks’ passing game, which didn’t have a ton of explosive plays in Week 16.
As for the Titans, I don’t see their passing game being successful, whether they start Levis or Ryan Tannehill. Statistically, the Seahawks’ pass defense hasn’t been great, but their front four can get pressure.
Therefore, Tennessee’s best offense is star running back Derrick Henry, who hasn’t looked like the same RB we’ve seen over the past few seasons. The Seahawks haven’t played great on the road this season (2-5), but they are the better team heading into this week’s game.
