RW can't win without a great run game...

renofox · Jan 5, 2020

has been PC's philosophy.

Today he finally let the offense partially go away from that and it worked.

Will this game help PC be a little more open minded in future games?

Carroll will NEVER change his mind IMO.

JustTheTip · Jan 5, 2020

He had better be more "open-minded" next week than he was today.

We wouldn’t have won if Russell hadn’t run great tonight!

Popeyejones · Jan 5, 2020

This year's Seahawks are more reliant on Wilson's completion percentage on potential chunk plays than I've ever seen with this team before.

The plus side is that Wilson is probably the best chunk plays QB in the NFL this year. The downside is that even with the best those are low percentage plays that are infrequent. The difference between success on four of five or two of five of those a game is just a razor thin margin.

The best teams left can run the ball. It still works today. With the OL and RBS hurt he has to change.

Went better than last year's WC when they couldn't run the ball, at least this time they realized they weren't going to win the game running against a brick wall and to actually let Russ take over the game.

Yes. Shotty learned from last years debacle. We passed a lot this game and only ran to essentially set up the play action shots.

Much better gameplan.

PC has consistently refused to go away from the run game (until midway through the 4th qtr) in plenty of games that resulted in a Seahawks loss. See last year's WC game.

In this game he minimized the run game beginning in Q1.

I hope this is a sign of better game planning to come.

Agreed if not for oline penalties I suspect t we score even more.

Pete Carroll has always appreciated run / pass balance. That sentiment is a matter of record in his transcripts.

Excellent play calls by the offensive coordinator tonight.

But the offense might have been upstaged by the defense ................ a defense credited with 11 tackles for losses and seven sacks. And then there are all those QB hurries and hits that were not listed as official NFL statistics.

Plays
40 pass

This was not Schotty. He doesn't make this radical of a gameplan - PC does.

PC actually game planned a pass first offense. Don't think I've ever seen this before.

Maybe he read all the complaints in this forum (lol) and loosened up a little.

Even PC is never too old to learn. We can only hope.

Even if nobody wants to admit it, having Diggs back, helped free up the WHOLE Defensive scheme.

Your absolutely right about Diggs return. Huge difference maker. They are a different team with Diggs on the field. [tweet]https://twitter.com/gbellseattle/status/1213997391533223937[/tweet]
Huge Defensive Night :2thumbs:

This year's Seahawks are actually taking more advantage of quick short throws and check downs. Not just chunk plays. 2017, and 2018 the team was more reliant on chunk plays. This year the passing game has been more expanded with short, intermediate, and deep routes. The offense took a step back when Lockett and Brown got injured

Do you have any facts to back this up or is it just pure speculation? Don't answer. It was rhetorical.

I know the defense played great in the Red Zone but although they only allowed 9 points, I was upset with them the way they allowed McCown to dictate the game. Ansah got outrun by a freakin 40 year old lol. Unbelievable.

Sometimes they do, sometimmes they play that old, style run at all cost throw long crap. Here is hoping whatever got into them remains, we play the tempo, quick passing game we can beat any0one, we go back to the run and throw long we will loose...alot.

Yeah, I posted this elsewhere, but they had seven sacks yet somehow managed to get zero pressure on McCown all day long. I think all of them were pure coverage sacks.
