Was the offense really that bad?

NFSeahawks · Dec 24, 2017

Didn't watch this weeks game or last weeks for that matter. Kinda taking a break from being too invested but was wondering if the offense looked as bad as everyone said. We somehow still won by 9 points and we have decent odds to make the playoffs with a win next week.

What say you?

Offense was terrible. Most yards came on broken plays, couldn't move the ball. Lots of 3 and outs. Defense saved the day and might have had their best game of the year.

25% chance to make the playoffs now. Falcons need to lose and we need to win. This might have been the worst called game bevell has ever had. We were pausing to discuss the horrid route trees and complete lack of options for Russ.

Bev is KILLING us. Nowhere to throw the ball nearly every down.

Ah same as usual probably just trying to convince Pete he still belongs here and not somewhere else as a head coach.

Despite that as usual Rw still had a decent game, 66% complt, 2 tds, 107 qb rating, 89% of offensive yards, 100% of offesnive Tds, leading rusher etc etc But that was mostly despite play calling and design

It's only 25% if you consider the outcomes of the two games as even odds.

Not sure that's the case.

Might be splitting hairs, but I would figure the odds are higher.

for the 13th time this season offense is a straight dumpster fire there is nothing but hail mary bombs or wilson magic 1st half is damn right garbage every game D wins us most of our games. overhaul is needed asap

When it is week 15 and your QB is your team's leading rusher, then YES, the offense is BAD.

And 93 passing yards on 21 attempts. 4.4 yards per attempt is just horrid. Not all his fault, this offense is terrible top to bottom.

One drive we ran the ball three straight times for 8 yards and punted. All that needs to be said about the playcalling.

LolaRox · Dec 24, 2017

The offense was straight trash homie

The offense was great. Cable has done a great job of coaching up the offensive line and I think they've really gelled

Bevell did a great job of mixing up plays and putting the ball in our playmakers' hands

By any given statistical measure Bevell always has great offenses as long and as you don't watch any plays you'll agree he is amazing and fully utilizes our talent

I expect next week we'll surpass penalty yards when it comes to our offensive production. We keep on this path and by week 36 I think we'll have a playoff caliber offense and we'll be talking extensions for both Cable and Bevell.

Where is the like button? Best Sioux impression I've seen.

The offense was actually pretty good! Coleman made a great catch which he turned into a TD and Maxwell made a huge play as well.

mikeak · Dec 24, 2017

We had one Drive after a Dallas turnover that was good. Mixed it up and moved the ball 80 yards for a TD. Only good Drive of the game

How much is it just a truly pathetic OL versus our receivers not getting separation? It seemed to me that Russell - when he did have time to throw - just couldn't find anyone open, like, EVER.

Having re watched it a lot there was very few times anyone was open. The routes they were running were ridiculous, while some times they got open late Rw as already running. Pretty much the same crap we have seen all year.

No chance scheming and formations might play a role in that, I suppose?

I mean, we did have a rookie CB brag about knowing the play we were running at the goal line based on our formation in the Super Bowl, which he intercepted...

Can you give any examples of these plays so the rest of us can see what your seeing please provide down, distance and time so were on the same page. I also rewatched the game and saw Russell missing many open people and not getting the ball out on time but maybe I shouldn't expect him to be elite and just blame the problems on everyone else. Please provide examples and if you find somewhere where he audibles that would be great to note too.

They had one good drive and that was about it. One touchdown was a pick six, and the other came off a fumble deep in Dallas territory. The mainstream headlines are all going to be about how Dallas lost this game. They more than doubled Seattle in total yards but they had a few terrible turnovers, two missed field goals, and some of the worst offensive playcalling I've ever seen.
