Seattle has failed to score a point in the first quarter this season and now QB Matt Hasselbeck will have a new slot receiver in Brandon Stokley after the trade of veteran Deion Branch to New England. To help the passing game, the Seahawks will start Marshawn Lynch and see if they can pound the Bears’ fifth-ranked run defense. If Lance Briggs doesn’t start, Brian Iwuh will be Chicago’s weak-side linebacker. LB Brian Urlacher is the Bears’ leading tackler with 35.
