## Resource

Seattle Seahawks face quarterback uncertainty as Sam Darnold’s injury may sideline him for up to six weeks—will Drew Lock be enough to keep Super Bowl hopes alive? Dan Viens unpacks the evolving QB situation, from Darnold’s glute tendon setback to possible replacements like Jimmy Garoppolo or Nick Mullens, and what it means for the offense’s continuity. The spotlight turns to how Lock, Jalen Milroe, and the rest of the depth chart stack up against a daunting upcoming schedule. Attention also shifts to Seattle’s secondary and the challenge of containing Trey McBride and a revitalized Arizona Cardinals passing attack led by Jacoby Brissett. Key matchups, injury updates for Nick Emmanwori and Tyal Cotta, and insights into upcoming showdowns with the Commanders, Chargers, 49ers, Broncos, and Chiefs reveal just how tough the next stretch will be. Can the Seahawks’ defense and supporting cast rise to the occasion during this critical run?
