Let me ask some questions

Here's an article from last season. Seems Seattle had a 75% success rate, but that was before Solari. I still would like to see more of it.

That is the same article I just posted and it goes back to 2001. That 75% was all pre Pete Carroll. Pete doesn't believe in the QB sneak. Wilson has a grand total of 1 that I can find.

Does Russell even take a snap under center? What's his pistol/shotgun percentage? If it's not 100% of the time, it's close.

Why would you want to see a play called that 100% of the time is tipping off the defense as to a QB sneak because Russell's under center and not in the shotgun or pistol?

Again, seems like a silly thing to complain about, considering we're not pretty damn successful this year on 3rd and short with how well our O-line is playing and our RB's are running.

Because even though it is known, teams cannot stop it, and it would have won us a 2nd SB. Other than that....no reason.

Yes, we run plays from under center...not 100%.
33% Under center this season.

Prior to this season, we were flat out terrible on 3rd and 4th and short. So winning would be another reason I'd like to.

......and in previous years with our terrible O-lines I'd agree with you. Just seems like a non issue thing to complain about with our success rate this year/improved O-line.

Doesn't even make the top 20 things I'd like improved on this team right now, our 3rd and short percentage is very good.

Tell picknick.....it's his thread. I happen to agree as do others. I'm just pointing out how silly and counter productive some of Pete's beliefs are when they come up.
We are nowhere near 90% BTW.....so don't act like it will do no good ever.

Ah sorry Seymour. Just proves I need to do more reading and less blabbing most of the time.
