The Seattle Seahawks will visit the San Diego Chargers at the Qualcomm Stadium in California for a Week 3 NFL 2015 Preseason contest on Saturday.
Seattle is still winless in the preseason so far after skin-of-the-teeth losses to the Denver Broncos on its opener, 22-20, and the Kansas City Chiefs last Friday, 14-13, via Fansided.
Star quarterback Russell Wilson has yet to find his full form and went 10-of-16 passes in the first two games. He is expected to have more playing time in the Seahawks third preseason game before resting the last one as a precautionary measure.
The Chargers hope to continue their great preseason showing as they are 2-0 so far following a 17-7 victory over the Dallas Cowboys in their opener last August 13 and a 22-19 win versus the Arizona Cardinals in their last game courtesy of a last-second field goal from kicker Josh Lambo, as per Bleacher Report.
Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll seems to be not taking the preseason seriously as he knows how loaded his team is when the "real" season starts.
Prediction: Chargers win, 30-21
