Yahoo Sports NFL on Emanuel Wilson
From the article
Emanuel Wilson deserves some blame as well. He incorrectly decides to bounce this run outside when he should be hitting the inside gap created by Christian Haynes. Wilson isn't an explosive back; he's a north-south runner.
STACKED’s take
Wilson's poor run reads and lack of explosiveness cost Seahawks yards; Walker likely scores.
Wilson received carries in place of the benched Kenneth Walker III but struggled with decision-making and explosiveness. The source notes that Wilson incorrectly decided to bounce a run outside when he should have hit the inside gap created by Christian Haynes on a simple read better suited to his skill set. The source states: 'Wilson isn't an explosive back; he's a north-south runner.' On the same run concept where Wilson lost yardage, the source suggests Walker probably would have been able to get something out of it. Another example shows Wilson choosing to bounce outside and lacking the explosiveness and speed to make it work, with the source believing Walker scores a touchdown on that play.
