Seahawks absolutely have to sort through their run-game struggles

The Seattle Seahawks have struggled to run the football effectively over the past two weeks. This weakness contributed to their Week 3 loss to the Washington Commanders, who were without their starting quarterback. Offensive coordinator Brian Fleury must address these run-game issues promptly. The Seahawks were outgained on the ground 88-44 by the Commanders.

Rookie running back Jadarian Price fumbled the ball away for the second straight week, which led to his benching. Emanuel Wilson took over as the primary ball-carrier after Price's injury, gaining 92 yards on 21 carries in the Week 2 victory over Arizona. However, Wilson only managed 14 yards on nine attempts in Week 3. The Seahawks currently rank 18th in rushing, averaging 101.0 yards per game.

This statistic is slightly skewed after the disappointing Week 3 performance. It is unclear if Wilson is the solution, as Price's ball-security problems need to be addressed. Zach Charbonnet, currently injured, will soon be available to return to practice. Whatever the decision, Fleury needs to quickly fix the team's run-game struggles.
