Seahawks DT Jarran Reed talks dominant defensive performance vs. Falcons
Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Jarran Reed helped his unit put forth a dominant performance in Sunday's blowout 34-14 Week 7 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The Seahawks forced Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins into three turnovers, and they scored a defensive touchdown on a strip-sack. Reed credited Mike Macdonald's adjustments for the standout showing.
"Once we came out and made our adjustments, we started stopping the run, and it gave us an ability to rush the passer," Reed said about a Seahawks defense that racked up three sacks on Cousins. "We made some simple tweaks as far as setting the edge and playing more physical with our hands on all levels. We all rallied to the ball as tacklers."
"We work hard every day because nobody wants to lose in this league," Reed added about the Seahawks ending a three-game losing streak. "It's all about how you respond, and I think we responded well."
Reed recorded four tackles against the Falcons. He's now accumulated 24 takedowns this season, including two sacks. The Seahawks are now preparing for the Buffalo Bills' high-octane offense in Week 8. Picking up an upset victory may require another dominant performance against Pro Bowl QB Josh Allen.
