Seahawks commit to Eddie Lacy at tailback in effort to get anemic running game going

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll on Wednesday suggested that the team will give Eddie Lacy the bulk of the work at tailback Sunday against Washington.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll insisted Wednesday the trade for veteran left tackle Duane Brown was not in reaction to the anemic running performance Sunday against Houston, when Seattle was held to a season-low 33 yards on 21 carries, 30 of which came on four attempts from quarterback Russell Wilson.

He also insisted that performance, which tied the season-low of last season against Buffalo, was an outlier even if Seattle is just 21st in the NFL in rushing this week at 97.
