Seahawks ‘Know We Can Be Great,’ But Need To Clean Things Up To Get There

The Seattle Seahawks are focusing on eliminating costly mistakes and turnovers ahead of their Week 6 Thursday night game against the Denver Broncos. Following a 32-29 loss to the San Francisco 49ers that dropped their record to 3-2, head coach Mike Macdonald stated that while the team has the capacity to be very good, they must clean up fundamental issues to achieve greatness.

Seattle's two losses this season have come by a combined margin of five points, largely fueled by seven turnovers that led directly to 42 opponent points. Quarterback Sam Darnold and wide receiver Cooper Kupp both stressed a shared sense of urgency regarding ball security and offensive execution heading into the short turnaround in Denver.
