3. Seattle Seahawks (4)

To nobody’s surprise, Russell Wilson looks ready for another big season with the Seattle Seahawks and after another impressive performance against the Cowboys, it’s easy to see why.

Wilson completed 16 of 21 passes for 192 yards with two touchdowns as the quarterback received plenty of playing time to help prepare for the upcoming season. The fact that Wilson has reached the playoffs in each of his four seasons shows just how much of an impact he’s made for this offense and that should happen again, even if things won’t be the same without Marshawn Lynch.

One of the biggest stories for Seattle continues to be Christine Michael seems ready to play a big role in the ground game after leading all rushers against Dallas with 58 yards. As long as Michael can stay consistent, the Seahawks should be just fine at running back playing alongside Thomas Rawls in the backfield.

Next: 2. Carolina Panthers
