For the first half of the NFL season, the Seattle Seahawks meant to air it out, and so they did. Sam Darnold was quieting many critics who believed he couldn't replicate his success from last season with the Minnesota Vikings, but the veteran QB had other plans.
Instead, he, and with the help of Seahawks' Offensive Coordinator, Klint Kubiak, seemingly looked even better than last year, and the numbers showed it. Before long, Seattle's offense was one of the best in the league — elite, explosive, and dangerous.
That said, one offensive element was missing, and it was covered up by Darnold and the passing attack.
