Rapid Reaction: Seahawks Offense Goes Cold In Green Bay

Rapid Reaction Seahawks Offense Goes Cold In Green Bay
Notes and takeaways from a Week 10 loss to the Green Bay Packers
1. The offense couldn't get going in Russell Wilson's return to action, and the Seahawks were shut out for the first time in a decade.

The Seahawks were hoping the return of Russell Wilson following a three-game absence would provide a spark against a tough opponent and in a stadium where the team hasn't won a game since 1999, but Sunday's game proved to be a challenging one for Wilson and the entire offense.

Most notably, the Seahawks were shut out for the first time since Wilson arrive in Seattle—the last shutout was at Pittsburgh in Week 2 of the 2011 season—and the Seahawks were held to just 208 yards and 15 first downs.

Wilson, who was coming back from finger surgery after a three-game absence, has struggled at Lambeau Field in the past, and it was tough going for him on Sunday. Wilson completing just 20 of 40 pass attempts for 161 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions, giving him a passer rating of 39.7, the fourth worst of his career.

Seattle's inability to stay on the field and sustain drives also took a toll on a defense that played very well for three-plus quarters, but eventually gave up two touchdowns drives late in a game in which the Packers had a time of possession advantage of 39:09 to 20:51.
