Rewatching the game, and everyone from left guard to right tackle are saying "Ole!" as soon as the ball is hiked! Bailey is the worst culprit letting Calais Campbell run right up the middle at Russell. 6'7" Calais Campbell.
Then poor Marshawn is getting met in the backfield by defensive linemen that are coming through untouched!
This shit has been going on far too long and I lay this at the feet of Tom Cable. He's getting paid a lot of money to whiff on draft picks and put together shitty offensive lines.
Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch are getting brutalized and have been since Russell got here! 7 sacks! 7! That doesn't count the times he was hit or threw an incomplete pass because there were people in his grill!
And poor Marshawn, no wonder his back hurts! He is literally carrying this team, and carrying 320 pound defensive players on his back.
For all the "fire coach X" threads I see around here, it al starts with the offensive line. It doesn't matter what play you call if the offensive line is doing it's best imitation of Dutch Windmills.
He's had long enough, and spent enough money and draft picks that we should have one of the better lines in the NFL. The Patriots take a bunch of scrubs, shuffle them around and now Tom Brady can stand there all day and throw the ball.
We all saw what happened to Brady early in the year when his offensive line couldn't block squat. And the Patriots have a running game! They are averaging 113 yards per game, and their RB doesn't get hit until he's past the LOS. Do you know how many sacks they allowed against the former number one defense? Zero.
So why, after 3 years, 1st round picks, 2nd round picks, 4th round picks, and millions of dollars is Russell still getting hammered and Lynch getting trucked in the backfield?
The thing that really gets my goat though, is that Russell's career is getting shorter and shorter with each hit that he takes from 300 pound plus defensive linemen who are at full speed because no one blocked them.
When is it going to change? When we fire Cable, that's when.
