Before their Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, the Seattle Seahawks were otherwise firing on all cylinders. Or, were they? Yes, their offense was, and still should be, lethal. Their defense? The very same, if not better. However, one element of Seattle's offense wasn't up to par.
Thanks to Sam Darnold and the Seahawks' explosive passing game, it covered up a rather unimpressive, even non-impactful, running game. Seattle jumped out to a 7-2 record before dropping its third loss of the season to the Rams. They got that without a strong rushing attack.
