Seahawks tape study: Run blocking mistakes doomed offense vs Lions

The Seattle Seahawks were barely able to escape with a 13-10 win over the 0-4 Detroit Lions on Monday. Seattle’s offense simply couldn’t get anything going against a less-than stellar Detroit defense. Anyone who watched the game can tell you that the reason for Seattle’s struggles was the play of their offensive line.

The book on Tom Cable lines are that they are generally poor as pass blocking, but they are great run blocking units. That simply isn’t the case right now. While the pass blocking remains poor, the run blocking was far worse.

Going through the tape, it is painful to see just how bad this group is playing.
