Brock Huard’s Chalk Talk: Tyler Lockett’s 39-yard TD in Seahawks’ loss

Oct 9, 2018, 11:25 AM

Looking back at the Seahawks’ 33-31 loss to the unbeaten Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, one offensive play stands out above the rest for Seattle: Tyler Lockett’s 39-yard touchdown reception from Russell Wilson.

Brock & Salk: Seahawks have a blueprint for the rest of the season

At first glance, you might just say Wilson’s completion to Lockett was a simple play-action pass, and you’d be right. But there was a lot that went into making that play work, which 710 ESPN Seattle’s Brock Huard explains in this week’s Chalk Talk.

Huard talk to the whiteboard to show how a close attention to details – both before the snap and after it – allowed the Seahawks to take advantage of the Rams’ defense, fooling the Los Angeles defenders along the way.
