A reason for hope at 2-5? Seahawks' embattled defense has 'turned the corner'

RENTON, Wash. -- The Seattle Seahawks have lost three straight and are three games under .500, two things that hadn't happened since 2011. Their 2-5 record puts them well behind the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West. They'll be without Russell Wilson for at least one more game.

It's by far the most dire situation they drafted Wilson in 2012, but it's not completely hopeless.

They're within one win of the final wild-card spot the NFC, which leaves them among the handful of teams in striking distance now that seven teams from each conference make it.
