Jermaine Kearse drew a pass-interference penalty in the end zone on third-and-8, setting up Seattle with first-and-goal at the Cleveland 1. “To sit and take one fragment of what I said just because I’d gone against Tom Brady, it’s not my job to rank quarterbacks and I know the bottom line for those guys, and he’s said it himself, is to win football games”.

Russell Wilson (Seattle Seahawks) vs Cleveland Browns: Wilson has been the Seahawks offense for the last few weeks.
This is a Browns team, after all, that has shown an improved ability to get after the quarterback – registering nine sacks a week ago in a surprisingly complete 24-10 win over the 49ers.
His opinion after seeing Wilson up close? The official Browns transcript they posted on the team’s website, casually omits the word ‘no.’ It might not be much, but it could be the Browns trying to spin Pett’s words a little, make of it what you please.
Manziel went 19 of 32 for 161 yards with a touchdown and a late interception that allowed the Seahawks to bleed the final two minutes off the clock.
Manziel wasn’t fazed initially. Cleveland prevented Seattle from scoring just once on its first seven possessions.
Cleveland kicker Travis Coons knocks down a 37-yard field goal with 9:02 left in the game. “We’re just not going to go up there and put in a day, but as I stressed to the team, that starts today with how we prepare, how we practice”. Should be a big game.
The Seahawks played the game without starting running backs Marshawn Lynch (sports hernia surgery) and Thomas Rawls (season-ending ankle injury), but was able to gain 182 rushing yards. He had a season-high 110 yards receiving against the Browns, giving him 613 yards this season, a career high.
During an appearance on Sirius XM NFL Radio on Thursday, Pettine said his remarks about Wilson were misconstrued and that “there aren’t too many quarterbacks that I respect more than Russell Wilson”.
The Green Bay Packers and the Oakland Raiders will clash on Sunday in a big game in Week 15 of the National Football League 2015 regular season. “The exciting part is simply that we’re winning the games”, a ducking-and-weaving Wilson said.
Seattle came right back to score on a 14-play, 69-yard drive that culminated in Baldwin’s first touchdown, a 3-yard reception from Wilson. “Every quarterback that’s ever played is tied for one, the best ever”.
Pettine didn’t really say anything insulting about Wilson. “That was a tough way to end the first half”. Between those three, only Jackson has had carries in the Seahawks’ system this season, toting the ball 24 times – Michael was a team backup the past two seasons before being waived this offseason.

While the flashy Michael – Seattle’s second round pick in 2013 – is perhaps most well-known, he’s a back who has previously struggled in his assignments, missing holes, failing to pick up blitzers and occasionally struggling with ball security. The Seahawks have been regularly burned by tight ends, and could be even more susceptible if SS Kelcie McCray has to play in place of Kam Chancellor (bruised tailbone).
