What we learned: O-line isn't all that's wrong with the Seahawks' offense

The severity of Richard Sherman's injury and Eddie Lacy's future in Seattle top Danny O'Neil's weekly list of things we're trying to figure out.

The Thunderbirds will kick off the 2017-2018 season Saturday night with a banner raising ceremony. After that, they have to get back to focusing on the upcoming season.

"I don't know what this week's gonna be for him," Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said to Brock and Salk about tight end Jimmy Graham, who is dealing with an ankle injury.

Linebacker Peyton Pelluer of No. 18 Washington State broke his foot in Saturday's victory over Oregon State and is done for the season.

Pete Carroll didn't have a hard time putting a finger on Seattle's offensive struggles. Getting both hands around them was a problem for his team, though.

It feels like we have gone back to the days when everyone was judging Russell Wilson against perfection instead of against the rest of the league – otherwise known as reality.

Pete Carroll called the Seahawks' struggles against the 49ers "uncharacteristic," and while some indeed were, this is far from the first season where they've started slow on offense.

Rookie running back Chris Carson provided a solid debut for his first home game, finishing with 93 yards on 20 carries and a catch for another seven yards in Seattle's 12-9 win over the 49ers Sunday.

Voices from 710 ESPN Seattle including Mike Salk, Jim Moore, Gee Scott and all of Bob, Groz and Tom react to the Seahawks' 12-9 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

The Seahawks were victorious after Russell Wilson somehow evaded a sack to throw a touchdown in the fourth quarter, but they didn't play much better on offense than in Week 1.

Justin Verlander struck out 10 in seven strong innings, Derek Fisher and Marwin Gonzalez homered in a big fifth inning and the Astros clinched the AL West with a 7-1 win over the Mariners on Sunday.

A 9-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter gave the Seahawks the lead for good in their 12-9 victory over the 49ers on Sunday at CenturyLink Field.

The Seahawks' free-agent signing Eddie Lacy was among the seven players the Seahawks declared inactive for Sunday's home-opener.

Stefan Frei made a diving save in the 42nd minute and the Seattle Sounders extended their club record unbeaten streak to 13 matches with a scoreless draw against FC Dallas on Saturday night.

Pettis wondered last week if teams would continue kicking to him. Fresno State (1-2) did and paid for it.
