A weird little moment broke out on the sidelines of the Seahawks/Giants game in New York. Doug Baldwin, who has been eating up yards against the normally solid Giants defense, got into a scuffle with Seahawks offensive line coach Tom Cable before reaching out and getting in quarterback Russel Wilson’s face. Head coach Pete Carroll broke up the intense powwow.
Minutes later, Baldwin caught a touchdown and all seemed well.
Great throw by Wilson to Baldwin for the TD!!!! Lobbed right over the defense. Awesome route by Doug Baldwin. #Seahawks #SEAvsNYG pic.twitter.com/kB7kTQeQ9f

Maybe the frustration comes from Baldwin wanting to get back to his previous form, who entered the year as one of the top ten wide receivers in the game. Over the last two weeks, he’s gained 72 total yards. As of this writing, he’s already got 81 and a touchdown. But things haven’t been incredibly easy for him.
Fantastic coverage by Eli Apple on Doug Baldwin. Couldn't have played that any better. #Seahawks #SEAvsNYG pic.twitter.com/O5oBPO3ueB

But after the little snafu, it seems like everything is fine. Cooler heads will prevail, especially if the Seahawks win, which they better, considering Eli Manning and the Giants only have Evan Engram and a half-baked potato to throw the ball to.

The Seahawks have been relatively healthy, but have their own offensive woes. Jimmy Graham is up and down, their running game is having trouble getting going, and their receivers, outside of Baldwin, have yet to step up.
