Seahawks’ backfield balance is holding back Klint Kubiak’s offense

Coming out of the 2025 preseason, Seattle Seahawks fans had every reason to believe that Klint Kubiak’s offense would be much more impressive running the ball. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case.

Seattle has the 19th-ranked rushing attack in the NFL despite having the eighth-most attempts. That results in the team having the 30th-ranked yards per attempt average in the league, a dismal 3.7 yards per carry.

It’s a frustrating outcome for an offense that carries two promising and talented young running backs in Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet. But for all the promise and talent, Seattle can’t seem to find reliable production from both backs on a week-to-week basis.
