He looked for help in the middle of the field. He looked short and he looked for deep balls.No one was open.It was that kind of Monday night for the Seattle Seahawks.Wilson was surrounded for most of Seattle's 24-17 loss to the Chicago Bears Riley Ridley Jersey Color Rush , and he got very little help from his teammates until the fourth quarter. He was sacked six times for the second straight week, including five in the first half, and made a game-sealing mistake in the final period."We're still a work in progress," coach Pete Carroll said. "You can see how hard our guys played, see how they fought throughout all the way to the last seconds on the clock."Seattle (0-2) played without guard D.J. Fluker and receiver Doug Baldwin due to injuries, and Baldwin's absence was particularly noticeable. Tyler Lockett was the Seahawks' top receiver with five catches for 60 yards, but he got most of his numbers in the fourth. Brandon Marshall struggled to get open against one of his former teams."I can always do better," Marshall said. "There's some things I definitely have to clean up. Just got to be sharper in everything that I do. We got to find a way to make plays."The rushing attack also was shut down by Chicago's refurbished defense Mens Riley Ridley Jersey , finishing with 74 yards on 22 carries. Seattle went almost 24 minutes of game time between rushing plays at one point.Wilson began the fourth quarter with just 69 yards on 9-for-20 passing, but he tried to rally the Seahawks down the stretch."The fourth quarter showed us who we are and who we can be," Wilson said. "We just got to get a better start and try to figure out how to catch that fire that we had in the fourth quarter, let's put it in the first, second, third if we can do that, which I don't think we're far off by any means."The four-time Pro Bowler found Lockett for 20 yards and tight end Nathan Vannett for 11 to move Seattle deep into Chicago territory. He then threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to Lockett to trim the Bears' lead to 17-10 with 10:13 left.Chicago (1-1) went three and out on the ensuing drive and punted the ball right back to Seattle. But Wilson's pass intended for Rashaad Penny near midfield was picked off by Prince Amukamara, who returned his first interception since 2015 for his first career touchdown with 6:37 remaining."You can't even remember the last time Russ did that Cheap Riley Ridley Jersey ," Carroll said.Wilson also lost a fumble on Seattle's next drive. He passed to Will Dissly for a 2-yard touchdown with 14 seconds to go, but the Seahawks' onside kick was unsuccessful and the Bears ran out the clock.The lackluster showing for Seattle's offense wasted a solid performance for its defense, led by two second-quarter interceptions for Shaquill Griffin. The second-year cornerback made a nice play on an underthrown ball by Mitchell Trubisky, and then had a diving grab on a tipped ball.Mychal Kendricks had one of Seattle's two sacks in his first game since he signed with the Seahawks on Friday. Kendricks pleaded guilty last week to insider trading charges, but he isn't expected to be sentenced in the case until January and the NFL has yet to impose any discipline."Just having this opportunity to play it means so much more to me," said Kendricks, who was released by Cleveland on Aug. 29 after the charges were filed. "That being said, I plan on doing the most with it."It just wasn't enough Riley Ridley Chicago Bears Jerseys , not with the Seahawks' ineffective offense.Wilson was 22 for 36 for 226 yards. Penny was the top rusher with 10 carries for 30 yards as Seattle possessed the ball for just 25 1/2 minutes."The fighter mentality in me is always going to be there so you can't play scared," Wilson said. "You got to be able to go for it. I think we were still able to do that. We had a lot of fourth-quarter comebacks and I believe those are going to happen."Jay Cohen can be reached at ://jcohenap Fact: Luke Stocker puts his right foot in, he puts his right foot out, he puts his right foot in, but he won’t shake it all about"The Falcons brought veteran tight end Luke Stocker on board late last week. And while Stocker’s two-year, $4 million deal may not move the needle for a lot of Falcons fans, the front office and coaching staff are thrilled about the addition of the tight end/fullback/football player extraordinaire. So how exactly do the Falcons play to use Stocker? According to D. Orlando Ledbetter, Dimitroff envisions a hybrid role for Stocker. (Credit to DOL for the quotes.) Stocker is not a small man. He’s 6’5 and weighs somewhere between 250-260 pounds. He is joining a team with five tight ends already on the roster Chicago Bears Jerseys Stitched , but don’t fool yourself, Stocker will have a role with this team. The Falcons ranked 27th in team rushing last season; they are not looking for a repeat performance in 2019. (To be fair, they ranked 13th in yards/attempt, so some of that is attributable to poor play calling.) Stocker isn’t being paid like a scrub who will ride the bench behind Austin Hooper and Logan Paulsen. He’s likely to play a prominent role, both as a blocking tight end and at fullback. Basically he’s a blocking specialist, and the Falcons plan to lean on him as they look to revitalize their rushing attack. Your thoughts about the role Stocker could play in 2019, Falcoholics?
