Agreed.
Also, for offensive coordinators, you get more NFL attention and looked to be HC candidates when you primarily employ a more pass dominant offensive scheme.
Not saying Waldron is a HC candidate but he wants to showcase his pass offense to the rest of the league in any fashion that Carroll will allow.
The short pass game the OP reference in which he believes the Seahawks are best suited for, I also agree, only problem is Carroll hates the short pass game offense.
The man would rather run, 3 yards, 5 yards, 6 yards, again 2 yards, and again 3 yards, than throw for 6-7 yard quick routes etc. anything that will add to additional defenders closer to the box is what Carroll doesn’t like, because if Seattle plays with that let’s go deep mentality scheme, if a running back breaks into the second level, there may be an added chance, the tailback will get the advantage over the corners and safeties especially if they are lined up honest in off coverage or so giving space because they fear the deep pass.
That’s just my take, but I agree, Seattle’s offensive line is more set to play in a short pass scheme more so right now, than it is power football and play action deep throws. To me it explains why Seattle hasn’t thrown successful deep passes in the past few weeks. Seattle’s offensive line and whatever Geno has in between in his head has prevented Seattle from playing deep ball shots down the field more so than they usually try to play.
Just my thoughts.
