Jadeveon Clowney is ‘very, very happy’ to be with the Seahawks — and sees a breakthrough coming

RENTON — The numbers aren’t pretty: Through five games, the Seahawks defense has accumulated just 10 sacks and 16 tackles for loss, both of which rank near the bottom of the NFL rankings.

What’s more, the Seahawks have sacked opposing quarterbacks on just 4.9% of dropbacks, according to Pro Football Reference, which would represent Seattle’s lowest sack rate of the Pete Carroll era should it hold for the remainder of the season.

Surely not the kind of figures the Seahawks expected when they acquired Ziggy Ansah and Jadeveon Clowney to bolster the pass rush.

Clowney, for one, is confident the pass rush will get better.
