1 receiver CeeDee Lamb and several other high-profile players have not played this preseason, and it’s frankly not clear if any will here – Elliott has basically said he’d rather not, but with two weeks ahead of the season opener, the coaching staff might put them out there for a series. Prescott, top running back Ezekiel Elliott, No. Carroll is 26-19 as a preseason coach with Seattle. Second-round rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (Michigan State) recently underwent surgery to repair a hernia injury, so he’s out and might not be ready for the season opener. For most of the offseason, Smith has been getting the vast majority of the reps with the first-team offence, and it would be a minor surprise if he’s not the guy.
It was to be Lock’s turn to start in Week 2, but he tested positive for COVID, and Smith was just O.K.Ĭoach Pete Carroll said Lock will play a lot in this one and the job is still up for grabs. Both Smith, who was Wilson’s backup last season and started three games, and Lock, part of the package back from Denver for Wilson, played well in the preseason opener for the Seahawks. There appears to be two quarterback battles remaining in the league: Pittsburgh and Seattle.
COWBOYS MONEYLINE TV
It’s no secret that owner Jerry Jones loves former Saints head coach and former Cowboys assistant Sean Payton and Payton is now available doing TV work – although any team would have to send New Orleans compensation. Per usual, the Cowboys expect to contend for a Super Bowl, and coach Mike McCarthy is on the hot seat. The Seahawks could be one of the worst teams in the NFC after losing Wilson and with a terrible quarterback room led by Drew Lock and Geno Smith (see below). These teams enter the season with very different outlooks. Dallas’ Dak Prescott threw for 472 yards with three touchdowns and two picks in a losing effort. They last met Week 3 of the 2020 regular season at AT&T Stadium and Seattle won 38-31 behind 315 yards passing and five touchdowns from Russell Wilson, whom of course was traded this past offseason to Denver. The Seahawks and Cowboys don’t play in the 2022 regular season. Seattle is a 3-point favourite to win on the NFL odds, with a total of 40.5 points. One of the NFL’s remaining quarterback battles should be decided by what happens Friday night when the Seattle Seahawks visit the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3 of the preseason.
