The Seahawks Offense - Not Great But Dangerous

The Seattle Offense

Russel Wilson - QB

A QB that keeps a play alive?  Sound familiar?  Wilson cannot come close to the arm of Aaron Rogers, but he keeps the play alive & is always looking downfield to throw - sound familiar?  At 5'11", short by today standards, throwing in the pocket is not his first choice, so I say, keep him in the pocket!  Easier said than done, Wilson very illusive - Matthews & Peppers, must make plays!

3,475 yards passing - 63.1% - 20 TD's - 7 interceptions

Very efficient, very illusive, & very smart!  Stop the big play & 3-4 sacks & 2 interceptions would be nice! The Packers must win the turnover battle!

Marshawn Lynch & Robert Turbin - RB

The Packers second issue - tackle Lynch!  We all know he runs hard, we all know he is a strange dude, so, just tackle him!  The Packers will need Morgan Burnett to have a BIG game!  He needs to help at the line of scrimmage on 1st & 2nd down!!  Our D-line must be "gap" secure & allow our linebackers to stay unblocked!  Bend, but not break, NO runs over 20 yards!

Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Kearse, & TE-Luke Wilson - Receivers
Not fancy, but effective!  This group will not scare you, they do not have big stats, but they get open enough to move the chains!  I would gamble & play a lot of one-on-one press coverage, to free up Burnett, & our LB's to rome the field.  It is not time to be conservative, rush 4-5, cover, & track down Wilson when he scrambles!

Seattle O-line - Okung, Carpenter, Unger, Sweezy, Britt
Again not flashy, but effective (sound familiar with this offense!)  Unger is back at center & that is a big help for the line!  It comes down to one-on-one match ups!  Beat the man in front of you!  Time for Perry & Jones to earn they high draft picks for the Pack!  And Mike Daniels!  Lead the way!  He has been the voice of the D-line this year - NOW it s time to show it!!!
