Hugh Millen's breakdown of the Graham TD other points

Running from under center: A major portion of Seattle’s running game has been from shotgun formation, with Marshawn Lynch aligned to either side of quarterback Russell Wilson.

• Tyler Lockett kickoff return: Lockett’s return highlighted a resounding victory in the kicking game for Seattle.

Jimmy Graham touchdown catch: Ahead 13-0 with 4:28 left in the third quarter, Seattle aligned in a double-set (two receivers to each side of the formation) “squeeze” alignment. Graham was aligned on the left side, close to Lockett. Such a formation allowed Graham and Lockett to crisscross their release, with Lockett releasing inside on his “shallow cross” route and Graham then releasing outside.

Thanks for the link

To me more interesting than the first quote is this: Under center, however, the Seahawks had 16 attempts for 106 yards and a 6.6-yard average

That is impressive and I think that's what Pete really wants, run from under center, successfully.

A potentially interesting bit of trivia is that USC virtually never used shotgun under Pete. Using pistol and shotgun is a newer thing in his offensive philosophy and our heavy use is directly tied to the unique skills of our starting QB.
