Danny's .02: brought to you this week by tons of Pro Football Focus
1. No Fluker
DJ has basically done wonders for the run game and not having him is not as easy as putting another guy out there. Not good news that he's not healthy again.
2. Penny
Getting down right strange that he's not seeing more action, though, it's clear he's not moving upfield fast enough. Shaking and baking behind the line is not this team's forté.
3.That first loss effect
I believe I heard that almost 80% of undefeated through 7 teams that lost, lost two in a row... so let's hope that holds up.
3. McDougald
Easy to overlook but not a minor injury concern even though it looks like he'll play.
Predictions-
Seattle 24 Rams 28
