Here's a look at what's "out there" for today — Wednesday, September 27 — about your Seattle Seahawks:
PFF Picks Secret Weapons For All 32 Teams
For ESPN Insider, the analysts over at Pro Football Focus identified the secrets to success for every NFL team after researching data points and player metrics from their very own database.
Based on their information, PFF believes the Seahawks' hidden secret weapon this season is rookie Chris Carson, who has had an impressive start to his pro career:
*This season has been the Year of the Rookie Running Back so far, but don't discount Carson, who almost went undrafted. Because Eddie Lacy began the season as Seattle's starting back, Carson's volume isn't high, but he has made the most of his playing time. Among backs with fewer than 40 carries this season, his nine forced missed tackles are second best, as is his total of 166 yards. Carson also ranks fourth in yards after contact with 100. *
