Trying to figure out that game the Seattle Seahawks lost to the San Francisco 49ers is not an exercise in futility as much as a masterclass in it.
This is not a year to wonder why a team would employ four running backs on the field at the same time and throw an interception. We’ve got lives to live.
It is however a phenomenal year to evaluate the rookies, young guys, 1-on-1 battles, and other more interesting things throughout the season.
There are countless dozen of these instances each game, because the team has two rookie tackles, two rookie corners, a first-year starting linebacker, and a chunk of other new starters at edge, safety, and sort of quarterback.
