You mean to tell me, if the Cards contain Russ and Lynch they'll win? :sarcasm_on:
Seattle's offense is built to punish the blitzes that Bowles is going to bring. Slant routes, counter runs, draws, swing passes, corner/post routes, seam routes, and anything that rolls the pocket are all concepts they use well. We already know Cromartie, Powers, and P2 are gifted in man2man coverage, and having Honey Badger and Deone playing deep adds security. With the league cracking down on defense, and Bowles making a living by blitzing exotically, Bevell would be smart to use those two as advantages to move the ball. On another note, every analysis tells Arizona to keep the Hawks under 10 points to win. Can anyone remind me when Russ and Co. have been held to single digits this year? The answer is ZERO, even with all the sluggish days we've had offensively. Seattle however, has held 4 teams under 10 with 3 of the 4 wins coming on the road. Although this article did a good job explaining how Seattle attacks, I found it too Captain Obvious for me. I believe the Cards will make some stellar plays on defense, but to be so overt about it is overkill in my opinion. Of course Arizona will play an elite game on defense, it's the only choice they have.
Go Hawks
