TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – Russell Wilson huddled in the locker room with two of his receivers, discussing where the Seattle Seahawks go from here.
A 14-5 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stopped a three-game winning streak that had Wilson and Co. feeling pretty good about the direction of the first-place team.
Losing to the Bucs hasn’t changed anything, the quarterback said Sunday after being sacked six times and limited to a season-low 151 yards passing and two interceptions.
“Sometimes you have to have a little struggle to overcome,” Wilson said. “We’re really positive about what we can do. We’ve obviously shown it. We’ve battled, we’ve battled and we’ve battled. They played a little bit better than us. Hopefully next week we can do a better job across the board.”
Jameis Winston threw touchdown passes to Mike Evans on Tampa Bay’s first two possessions , before an injury-depleted Seahawks defense minimized the damage the rest of the way.
