That likely won’t change in Pete Carroll’s homecoming Sunday in Los Angeles.

“One play does not make a game”, coach Adam Gase said. “He’s not in a boot”.
Carroll shrugged and shook his head. “He’s walking around. He’s planning on playing”.
Following last weekend’s game, there were talks that Wilson’s injury was a bit serious and could endanger his chances of appearing in Week 2 with the Seahawks.
His answer was vintage Carroll.
You know what you get from Ndamnukong Suh, while it was great to see Cam Wake on the field and chasing after the ball.
DT Aaron Donald: The third-year player from Pittsburgh quickly has emerged as one of the NFL’s best defensive linemen with 20 sacks in his first two seasons – two in a season-opening win against the Seahawks last year.
“We will still be concerned”.
“But we have to take into account that it’s going to be hard, it’s going to be hard for him to practice and stuff like that, so we’ll have to do a few things here”. All day Wilson took a pounding, including a seemingly unintentional stomp on his right ankle from Ndamukong Suh that left him heavily taped, mostly immobile and not getting the usual zip behind his throws.
Stills, who finished with one reception for 16 yard, continues to look for the silver lining in a play that may have cost the Dolphins a huge upset. The Seahawks could bring in a veteran quarterback this week, as rookie Trevone Boykin, who had a mediocre preseason, is the backup.

The biggest issue was the play of the offensive line, which struggled to stop the Miami pass rush. With not even a minute left in the game, the Raiders scored a touchdown and instead of tying the game with an extra point, they went for two and successfully converted the attempt to win the game against New Orleans, 35-34. Miami looked solid on defense but the offense could be a question mark even though they played in a tough building against a ferocious defense in week 1. I told him, ‘You need to suck it up, ‘ and he said. well, I can’t repeat what he said.
Carroll said running back Thomas Rawls (22 of the offense’s 82 snaps against Miami) and tight end Jimmy Graham (17 snaps) came out of the game feeling good. “Then, to play that well, to be able to finish the game in that kind of fashion and make all the calls and do it all and elude the rush like he needed to, that was just fantastic”.

“He was better the more he realized what it was, what was going on, what it felt like”, Carroll said.
