The Seattle Seahawks begin a two-week stretch of what looks like must-win games on Sunday, Nov. 12, when they host the Washington Commanders. The game will be live streamed on DirecTV Stream (free trial) and fuboTV (free trial).

There have only been a few instances in Pete Carroll’s long tenure that he has seen the Seahawks humbled by a true thumping from their opponents.

Last week was one of them. And considering what’s on the horizon, Carroll can’t allow that 34-point loss to linger for his team.

Seattle’s 37-3 loss last Sunday at Baltimore showed the gap that remains between the Seahawks and the elite teams in the league. It was the second-worst loss of Carroll’s time in Seattle.

But while there are plenty of deficiencies that were on full display last week, the Seahawks (5-3) are still tied for the NFC West lead. That makes Sunday’s game against Washington and next week at the Rams so important for Seattle because of a four-game stretch that follows: two games against San Francisco, a trip to Dallas and a visit from Philadelphia.

The Commanders responded by winning last week at New England. The Commanders have won two of their last three road games and Carroll was quick to point out how tough Washington played Philadelphia in a pair of one-score losses.

When is Commanders-Seahawks?

The Seahawks and Commanders play at 3:25 p.m. (4:25 p.m. ET) on Sunday, Nov. 12.
