In years past, the Seattle Seahawks' offensive attack would conjure images of a smash-mouth running game led by Marshawn Lynch, an athletic quarterback in Russell Wilson and a host of weapons in the passing game who were honestly a bit underwhelming. The keys to beating those teams were to limit Lynch’s effectiveness as well as contain Wilson in the pocket. If you did those two things, you were in good shape. The 2016 Seahawks are a completely different team, however, both physically and philosophically.
Gone are the days when Seattle would try to ground and pound defenses with a battering ram at running back.
