Matchups to watch
How each player gets his production, set against how this opponent has defended it over their last 17 games. After the game we grade who won each one.
Where his targets come from
Share of his targets. The white tick is the league average.
How SEA defend it
Ranked of 32, last 17 games. Green is a weakness to attack.
- Seattle are mid-table or better at every depth over their last 17 games. McBride's likeliest route is short throws (74% of his targets), where they rank 11th.
- Contested catches aren't his edge this week: he's 12th percentile for separation and 81st for hands, and Devon Witherspoon, Josh Jobe, Riq Woolen and Nehemiah Pritchett all allow fewer yards per target than the average corner (7.4).
- Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
