On the final Sunday of October, the Seattle Seahawks (5-2) are on the road against the NFC’s worst team, the Atlanta Falcons (1-6). This might be Dan Quinn’s final game as Falcons head coach, and if so, it’d be against the team where he won a Super Bowl as defensive coordinator.
Seattle is coming off a disappointing home loss to the Baltimore Ravens, in which MVP candidate Russell Wilson’s first interception of the season was a costly pick-six. With the San Francisco 49ers leading the NFC West at 6-0, the Seahawks can’t afford to drop many more games if they want to stay in the divisional hunt.
