Game Notes
This is the first meeting between the two teams since 2009. A 41-0 shutout win for the Seahawks at CenturyLink Field. The Jaguars currently boast 3 former Seahawks on their roster, CB Will Blackmon, S Winston Guy, and RB Justin Forsett
Players to Watch:
Offense:
Justin Forsett - RB: The former Seahawks runner returns to his old stomping grounds. Replacing the injured Maurice Jones-Drew last week he rushed for 136 yards in a win at Oakland.
Defense:
Paul Posluszny - MLB: Posluszny is a tackling machine for Jacksonville, and the anchor of their defense.
Prediction: The upstart Jaguars have started the year 2-0 under former Seahawks coordinator Gus Bradley, and he no doubt will want to continue the momentum in his old stomping grounds, but those two wins were against The Chiefs, and Raiders. This is a big step up in class for the Jaguars, and they will not be able to keep up with the Hawks in this one. Seahawks 34, Jaguars 17

Seahawks Slip by Jaguars 20-14
The Seattle Seahawks fought their way to a victory at CenturyLink Field over a very game Jaguars squad on Sunday afternoon. The Jaguars showed that their 2-0 record many didn't pay much attention to this year may be no fluke. They gave the Seahawks everything they could handle in the first half, and were able to hang on in the 2nd half and keep it close throughout. Russell Wilson had an off day throwing the ball completing less than half of his passes, and throwing his 2nd interception of the season. Marshawn Lynch and the rushing game were able to take some of the pressure however as Lynch rushed for 100 yards for the second time this year, and Christine Michael rushed for his first NFL touchdown. The Seahawks path doesn't get any easier as they now hit the road to take on the Houston Texans Sunday at Reliant Stadium.

Great start so far! I love playing with Seattle as they're my team as well :-)
Should be fun to see what you do with them in the future though (that's where the real troubles begin with all the great guys' contracts expiring...it's a bit of a headache)
