One of the many vexing questions left over from the Seahawks’ season-ending divisional playoff loss was whether the outcome might have been different had Seattle adjusted its defense to have cornerback Shaquill Griffin cover Green Bay’s Davante Adams as often as possible.
Adams was a one-man wrecking crew on the Seahawks with eight catches — all of which went for first downs or touchdowns — for 160 yards and two scores as Green Bay beat Seattle 28-23.
Much of Adams’ damage came when matched up against right cornerback Tre Flowers or nickel Ugo Amadi, or a combination of the two, including both touchdowns, as well as a catch for a first down on the final drive in which Green Bay ran out the clock.
