Seattle Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks look to build on their three game winning streak and at the same time, build their lead in the NFC West. The Seattle Seahawks have 11 regular season road victories since the 2014 NFL season!

---

Quarterback Overview

Russell Wilson has completed 65% of his passes, he has thrown for 1,334 yards, five touchdowns, and one interception; althought, Wilson has not thrown an interception in his last four games!

---

Running Back Overview

The Seattle Seahawks ground game is averaging 88.8 yards per contest, and Christine Michael leads the way with 354 yards and four touchdowns!

---

Wide Receiver Overview

Doug Baldwin and Jimmy Graham have combined for 716 receiving yards and three touchdowns while Tyler Lockett has only 11 receptions.

---

Defense Overview

Seattle's defense is not that great this year, but it’s not that bad either as they have a total of 5 interceptions and Richard Sherman leads the way with 2 interceptions, 16 sacks, and 5 takeaways this season. This defense needs to come out aggresive on Sunday if they have any chance of stopping the Cardinal WR core of Fitzgerald and Floyd.

---

Seattle Seahawks Injury Report

The injury report for the Seahawks is not too promising with a multitude of players on the sidelines. Most notably, Thomas Rawls and Quinton Jefferson with fibula and thumb injuries and Franks Clark’s troubled hamstring makes him a doubt for the game on Sunday.

How to Play

• Vote on the main post to enter the bet (main post rewards will also be added to the Stake Pool).

• Cast your Vote Bet on ONLY ONE outcome for which you bet on for the win (Multiple comment votes will be automatically disqualified by the script, unvote and revote counts as multiple votes and will be disqualified).

• After 24 hours, the post and related game comments payout to the pool; remember 25% voters rewards are deducted from the total post payout value first as per Steem curation rules. Voters are rewarded in standard fashion in proportion to their Steem Power holdings.

The Stake Pool:

• The remaining 75% of the total payout is paid out in 50% Steem Power and 50% in liquid currencies, the latter now varies in payout ratio after the new fork. To make the process less complicated, we have decided to use all paid out SBD to buy Steem in the internal market to create a grand total Steem Stake Pool.

• 30% of the Stake Pool will be retained, of which 15% will go to the writer/sports presenter of the post, and the 15% balance towards editing, development and advertising.

• 70% of the Stake Pool will be held until the event/game outcome is determined.

• Once the winning outcome is determined, we will execute a proprietary developed script that will divide and pay out the Steem rewards equally, using the Power Up method, to Mass Distribute SP to all participants that voted on the main post as the entrance fee as well as voted on the correct comment representing the winning outcome.

• Only participants with a Reputation of 35 or more will qualify to earn SP rewards, but non-qualifiers can still vote and comment in support of the redistribution initiative.

• Entry cut-off time is the earlier of the post payout or the start of the event.

• @steemsports in the unlikely event that when the Stake Pool is divided up between the winners and the nomenclature resolution goes below the third decimal place (example: 0.0001), then Steem decimal restrictions won’t allow a payout and the pool will carry over to the next game.

• Please vote responsibly :).
