Five takeaways from Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer: The magic number for winning, Arizona’s blitzing, and more

The last two Thursday’s, Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer vowed to do a better job when he met with the media for his weekly press conference.

He didn’t have to do that this Thursday with the Seahawks coming off their first win of the year, a 24-13 victory over Dallas in which the offense began to finally look a little like what Seattle coaches had promised all offseason.

Seattle ran it 39 times, didn’t commit a turnover and got a rushing touchdown from a running back (Chris Carson), the first in almost a calendar year.

The Seahawks also hit one of Schottenheimer’s magic numbers, of having more than 50 combined completed passes (16) and rushing attempts (39).
