It is morbidly funny, right? NFL teams are pretty successful based on the strength of their offensive and defensive lines. The two groups matter. And yet, over the last decade, the Seahawks have won a ton of games with basically a bad offensive line and not a lot of recent depth at defensive line. How can this be?
General manager John Schneider and head coach Pete Carroll have built Seattle into a nearly-annual winner. They have drafted a great quarterback in Russell Wilson, had quite a few very good to great defensive backs, good linebackers, very good receivers and got lucky with running back Chris Carson.
