Green Bay Packers 48, Seattle Seahawks 13
Coach Holmgren decided to play his backups most of the game against the Packers and that was smart because he better hope he doesn’t have to use them. Seneca Wallace had a rough game as he completed only 6 of 15 passes for 94 yards and he lost two fumbles that were both returned for TDs by the Packers defense. David Greene finished up the game and he was downright pathetic. He completed only 6 of 17 passes for 68 yards with 0 TDs and 3 INTs! Undrafted rookie A.J. Harris was one of the only bright spots on offense as he carried the football 15 times for 54 yards (3.6 ypc). Maurice Morris also pitched in with a nice game as he carried the ball 6 times for 31 yards (5.2 ypc) with 1 TD run. Leonard Weaver didn’t do much with his 6 carries as he only rushed for 17 yards (2.8 ypc). Nate Burleson only made one catch but it went for 55 yards. The Seahawks wound up carrying the football 34 times for 127 yards (3.5 ypc) and they completed only 12 of 32 passes for 112 yards. The Seahawks better hope Matt Hasselbeck stays healthy this season.
The defense of the Seahawks actually played pretty well against the Packers Saturday. They only allowed 79 yards rushing on 27 carries (2.9 ypc) and the Packers completed 22 of 38 passes for 197 yards.
