The upcoming game between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks will be pivotal for both teams, each aiming for a 2-0 start. The Seahawks face a potential setback as their leading rusher, Kenneth Walker III, is doubtful due to an oblique injury. Despite this, backup Zach Charbonnet is expected to step up. The Patriots, coming off a strong defensive performance against the Bengals, will look to leverage their running game led by Rhamondre Stevenson. Both teams have new head coaches, Jerod Mayo for the Patriots and Mike Macdonald for the Seahawks, emphasizing physical, run-heavy styles of play. The Patriots also hinted at a uniform change, continuing their trend from last year.
