Some key things to note:
Seattle has given up 108 yards rushing per game so far this year, very average. But starting tailbacks have been held to less than 4 yards per carry. QB scrambles have helped hurt the Seattle rush defense, including 43 yards from Vick. Their rush D is a bit underrated.

Their offense is really balanced. They have the #4 rushing offense and the #6 passing offense, so you can't just shut down Alexander. If you don't pressure Hasselbeck he can do damage with Engram and Jackson.

With those things in mind I see a very defensive battle. I do think we can shut down Alexander and the passing game too. But I think they're going to do a good job on Portis too.
