Seattle Sounders FC sit 13th in MLS with an 11-9-10 record after slipping from seventh place. We analyze Andy Thomas's defensive reliability, Albert Rusnák's frustration, and the critical lack of width.

We discuss the recent 2-0 win vs Colorado Rapids, the 3-0 win vs New England Revolution, and the damaging 1-0 loss to FC Dallas. Key players include Jackson Ragen, Dejan Joveljić, Hassani Dotson, and Paul Arriola.

Our projections suggest a ninth-place finish unless roster changes address the midfield congestion and attacking stagnation plaguing the Western Conference side.
