High-Flying Offense vs. Stifling Defense: This Should be Fun

Canal Street Chronicles: The Seahawks at 4-1-1 are still one of the best teams in the NFL, boasting what I consider to be the best defense in the entire league. Yet, offensively they are ranked 20th overall by Football Outsiders and even more striking, they're 30th in rushing offense. What's going on?


Kenneth Arthur: Number one, I think it's fair to point to the loss of Marshawn Lynch. He's a unique talent and there will never be another player like him. That being said, number two is that Thomas Rawls has been out for basically of the year and he was number one in DYAR for running backs last season, also a number from Football Outsiders.
