Around the Seattle Seahawks.......

The Seahawks lose a close one. The injuries to the secondary in CB Boyer and WLB Fackrell really hurt our passing defense. On the positive note, it appears that QB Kenyon Cunningham could develop into a starter. I know the Seattle media wants Cunningham in, but its still Lucks team for a little time longer.

The only new injury this week was FS Jackson Farrens, but the trainers say the injury is mild and not likely to re-injure. He will stay in the line-up.
