Ali Siddiqui’s Seahawks-Vikings + Flashback Prediction

Seattle ahead series of all time 13-6.

These two teams last faced each other in 2021.

Kirk Cousins ​​was 30-of-38 for 323 yards and three touchdowns. Alexander Mattison rushed for 112 yards on 26 carries. Justin Jefferson caught nine passes for 118 yards and a touchdown. Tyler Conklin caught seven passes for 70 yards and a touchdown.

“He became a different Kirk.” wide receiver Adam Thielen said. “He was just on time and locked in. He’s counting on it. I think a big part of it is our online line and them blocking it and giving it enough time to sit there and read.”

On defense, Eric Kendricks had a team-high 11 tackles and also recorded a sack. For Seattle, Russell Wilson was 23-of-32 for 298 yards and a touchdown. Chris Carson rushed for 80 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries. DK Metcalf caught six passes for 107 yards and a touchdown.

For Seattle’s defense, Jamal Adams had a game-high 12 tackles.

Minnesota won 30-17 to improve to 1-2 on the season. They finished the season with an 8-9 record and missed the playoffs for the second consecutive season. Seattle dropped to 1-2 on the season and finished the season at 7-10. They missed the play-offs for the first time since 2017.

The Detroit Lions finally lost a game last week and tied with Minnesota for the record. But Detroit has a chance to break the head-to-head tiebreaker. The next three weeks will be exciting to say the least.

Although Minnesota is seen as the favorite in this match, their job will not be easy at all. Winning in Seattle is always tough, especially for Minnesota, which hasn’t won there since 2006. It can also be rainy, which of course is what Seattle is essentially known for. While Seattle didn’t look good at all last week, some of Minnesota’s road wins were less than impressive.

This game could very well go either way; can win or lose. Neither should be considered a surprise. If they lose, Minnesota still has a chance to win the division and maybe even get the top seed in the NFC. The Philadelphia Eagles hit the road to face the Washington Commanders. Philadelphia may very well lose. Detroit goes to Chicago in the cold. They can lose too.

The more Minnesota wins, the better it is for them and the fans. But no matter how the next three weeks go, fans should be proud of how much this team has exceeded expectations. The future looks bright too.

Even the most optimistic did not expect a 12-2 start.

Prediction: Seahawks win 23-20
