Football 101: Jamal Adams, Quinton Dunbar solve a play that has been a problem for the Seahawks

Something that has been an issue in recent seasons for the Seahawks’ defense is the fly sweep.
The play is kind of like it sounds – a wide receiver sweeps in from one edge of the field to take a handoff from the quarterback, then keeps flying towards the other sideline and turns upfield looking for some positive yardage.
It has worked a lot against the Seahawks, especially when employed by the NFC West rival Los Angeles Rams. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that in Week 1 of the 2020 NFL season, the Atlanta Falcons – who are coached by former Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn – gave the fly sweep a shot. One big difference, however – Seattle’s secondary doesn’t feature the same defensive backs as before.
