The Drive: Can Michael Dickson fulfill the hype?

In his first regular season game, Michael Dickson outperformed Seattle’s entire passing offense. The Seahawks passing offense was not bad. In fact it was the second best unit as measured by expected points added contributing 9.28, but Dickson and Seattle’s coverage units added 9.66. Perhaps Seattle’s long curse of bad punting was coming to an end. No more would Super Bowl aspirations be Rouen’d, nor would infernal arguments about Jon Ryan rage, and whatever nostalgia we might feel for pound-for-pound strongest man in the NFL Rick Tuten could be mercifully put to rest.
