@millermuze asks, "What needs to change offensively to keep these turnovers from happening?" While @jackboymarlo7 says, "No questions. STOP turning the ball over. We have 16 turnovers to the Rams' 7. We can't win like that."
A: So far, the Seahawks have been winning despite committing too many turnovers, a testament to the overall strength of the team, but to Jackboymarlo's point, that isn't a good formula for sustained success, especially against top opponents like the Rams. The Seahawks have done so many things well on offense, which his why they rank third in the league in scoring and ninth in total offense, but they've also committed 16 turnovers, which is tied for the second most in the league.
"The ball has been in jeopardy too often, offensively, and that's something we need to focus on moving forward," Macdonald said.
There have been a few odd/fluky turnovers with throws bouncing off of helmets, or a botched snap right after starting center Jalen Sundell left the game, but Sam Darnold, for as fantastic as he has been this season, would be the first to stay that, as the quarterback, he needs to take care of the ball better in some situations. In fact, he did make that point after Sunday's game, saying "I can always do better" when it comes to turnovers.
The Seahawks have gone long stretches taking care of the ball well, including a turnover-free game in Jacksonville against the team that at the time led the league in takeaways, but they know they'll need to be cleaner in that department overall if they're going to be able to win against top teams like this week's opponent.
