Burkhardt: Why Bills matchup is 'ultimate test' for Seattle Seahawks
Near the midway point of the season, the Seattle Seahawks are still a bit of a mystery.
Macdonald previews Seahawks’ showdown vs Bills
Seattle opened the Mike Macdonald era with a 3-0 start, but that came against an underwhelming slate of opposing quarterbacks – Denver rookie Bo Nix, New England journeyman Jacoby Brissett and Miami backups Skylar Thompson and Tim Boyle.
The Seahawks then quickly fell to 3-3, stumbling to three straight losses in an 11-day span. Their defeats to NFC powers Detroit and San Francisco were certainly understandable – especially given the slew of injuries they were facing – but their Week 5 loss to the woeful Giants was perplexing.
Yet just as the concerns were mounting, Seattle bounced back with a decisive 34-14 road victory over the surging Atlanta Falcons this past Sunday. Atlanta had entered on a three-game win streak, but the Seahawks controlled the game throughout, despite playing with three backups in the secondary and a fourth-stringer at right tackle.
“I thought last week was a really good win,” FOX lead NFL play-by-play voice Kevin Burkhardt said Friday on Seattle Sports’ Brock and Salk. “I think Atlanta is pretty good. (The Seahawks) had three straight turnovers on the defense and I thought they flew around to the ball. And (they) were playing with backup cornerbacks and backup safeties in the game.
“I thought that was really, really impressive from that side of the ball, and I thought it was a really good win on the road.”
Now the question is, can the Seahawks build on last week’s triumph and pick up their first big-time victory of Macdonald’s tenure?
Seattle (4-3) hosts Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon at Lumen Field, which presents a measuring-stick opportunity against one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks and one of the AFC’s top teams. The Allen-led Bills (5-2) are strong on both sides of the ball, featuring the league’s fifth-ranked scoring offense and seventh-ranked scoring defense.
“I think we can find out who (the Seahawks) are, because… I think Buffalo is a really good team,” said Burkhardt, who will be calling Sunday’s game alongside seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback Tom Brady. “And I think they’re still kind of getting in the groove too. I expect them to go deep in the playoffs.
“So I’m just really curious to see how (the Seahawks) stack up. … I think it’s an ultimate test for them to see where they are.”

SEATTLE – Western Washington is staying locked into a cool and unsettled weather pattern as we head into the second half of the week.
Showers will continue to rotate through the region over the next several days as a series of weather disturbances move overhead, keeping skies mostly cloudy and temperatures running below average for mid-May.
Thursday will bring a brief break in the action before the next weak system arrives later in the day. Expect scattered showers to redevelop with plenty of cloud cover sticking around. Temperatures will remain cool, with highs near 60 degrees.
It will be cool on Thursday in Western Washington with increasing clouds and showers. (FOX 13 Seattle)
What’s next:
The weather turns a bit more active Friday as the next system swings into the Pacific Northwest. Western Washington will see widespread showers and even the possibility of a few isolated thunderstorms. While not everyone will hear thunder, a few heavier downpours and small hail can’t be ruled out if any storms manage to develop during the afternoon.
Rain showers will push through Western Washington again on Friday afternoon. (FOX 13 Seattle)
Saturday will be cool with scattered showers and another chance for isolated thunderstorms, especially near the Cascades. Afternoon highs will struggle to make it out of the 50s across many lowland Puget Sound area communities.
Mountain travelers should also be prepared for a dramatic change compared to the recent warm spell. Much colder air will filter into the Cascades this weekend, and while significant snow accumulation looks unlikely, higher elevations could still see snow showers and sharply colder conditions. Anyone planning outdoor recreation in the mountains should be ready for winter-like weather at times.
Snow levels will drop to near pass levels in the Washington Cascades Friday through Sunday. (FOX 13 Seattle)
Looking Ahead:
The pattern finally begins to improve late in the weekend and into early next week. High pressure is expected to rebuild over the northeastern Pacific, bringing a return to drier weather and some sunshine. Temperatures should gradually rebound back into the 60s by Monday and Tuesday, although the ridge may remain weak enough to allow for occasional clouds at times.
Temperatures will be cool the next three days with showers in Seattle, but next week will be drier and warmer. (FOX 13 Seattle)
