It looked like one of the games of the year in August.
Week 10. Seattle Seahawks visiting the Atlanta Falcons. Two NFC superpowers in a rematch of their contentious playoff affair 10 months earlier.
Here's what else we learned:
- Roddy White's return to the lineup didn't have the effect the Falcons had hoped. The veteran wide receiver -- out since Week 5 with knee and hamstring issues -- had one catch for 20 yards.
- Perhaps the only negative aspect of Seattle's afternoon came in the first half, when cornerback Brandon Browner limped off the field with a groin injury. He did not return. A situation to track for a Legion of Boom cornerstone.
- Sidney Rice is out for the year and Percy Harvin has yet to make his season debut, but there's still a lot to like about the Seahawks' wide receivers. Golden Tateshowed again why he's one of the more underrated playmakers at his position. Jermaine Kearse, meanwhile, had another long touchdown catch and appears completely capable of filling Rice's shoes as a stretch-the-field playmaker.
- I still think the Falconsshould have tradedTony Gonzalez.
