It wasn’t an easy Week 8 for the Seattle Seahawks.

With a 3-4 record the team stepped onto the field at AT&T Stadium to play the Dallas Cowboys, hoping for a victory that would bring them to .500.

Fortunately for the Hawks, they were able to squeeze out a narrow 13-12 victory. Unfortunately that came at a cost. With Ricardo Lockette taking a knockout hit that will take him out of the season, and an offense that continued to struggle in the red zone, it wasn’t the preferred way to get that 4-4 record.

Luckily, the Seahawks don’t have to worry about any more hard hits for another week. The team is enjoying a bye and won’t play until Nov. 15, when they face the Arizona Cardinals. Here’s a glimpse at how some of the guys have been spending their time.
