Sonics fans should remember a Euro bigman named Vladimir Stepania. He was a rangy finesse PF that could spread the floor. Anyways, I once ran into Mr Stepania at a club, and for whatever reason he was denying who he was. Because I'm an ass and it was REALLY annoying Vlad, I kept sending people over to him and pointing him out to everyone. Vlad's response, almost every time, was an annoyed "I don't play blah".
So, in my best Vladimir Stepania voice, lets talk "blah". Name some matchups you like and matchups you don't like in this game.
Match-Up's I Like :
I like Willson, Cooper, Moaeki or even Norwood to work the zone behind the LB's and in front of the safeties. I think that's a hole in Capers system. That'll be huge, IMO.
Also, I like the RO ALOT this game. Because the defensive line is so thin, I expect the Seahawks offense to do less counter-punching in the 1st half. The offense needs to do its part to keep that defense off the field. Even if its most likely a 3 and out, make it a LONG 3 and out. The RO is a good way to extend drives and something Capers is yet to figure out as a DC.
Match-Up's I don't Like - That GB Oline is good and has improved over the 2nf half of the season. The Seahawks may need to get creative with personnel to get consistent hits and pressure. I really don't like the match-up of the Hawks DL against their OL.
