Will Christine Michael or C.J. Prosise start against Patriots? Either way, Seahawks need a better running game

The Seahawks are being vague on if Christine Michael or C.J. Prosise will start Sunday against New England. In any case, they know the running game needs to get better.

To clear up one thing from Monday night’s Seahawks win over Buffalo — Christine Michael was not hurt when he did not play in the fourth quarter of Seattle’s eventual 31-25 win.

“C. Mike was fine,” coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday. “We were just playing guys.”

Specifically, rookie C.J. Prosise, who was the team’s primary tailback during the fourth quarter — Alex Collins also played one snap.
