Can the Seahawks run a more effective offense even with a downgrade at quarterback?

Wilson’s Yards Per Attempt remained good during the 2021 debaclery.However, say Russ throws a 40 yard TD to Tyler Lockett, then goes 0-4 on his next four drives, he ends the day with an 8.0 YPA on third down. That would have been on pace for sixth behind all qualifying quarterbacks last year. It also leaves Seattle with seven points on five drives, and let’s be honest it’s probably seven points on seven drives because I bet they tried to run Travis Homer on a draw on 3rd and 20 twice.

One thing is for certain - this may have all ended as one of the worst parings in the NFL, in terms of skillset / philosophy. It simply will not do to have one of the least effective 3rd down QBs alongside the worst 4th down coach in the league. The team effectively operated like it had two chances to move the ball 10 yards most of the time.

This season teases a revelation that one party was right and the other wrong. It ultimately may not play out that way; but the possibility that “Pete was right” or “Russ can cook” should emerge by season’s end is within reach and it is tantalizing. Regardless, neither Smith nor Lock need to make ESPN highlights, have the “Big Time Throw” numbers, or hit the charts on explosive plays. With a strong run game and even better weapons than last year, either one could reasonably throw for less yards, fewer touchdowns, smaller YPA, and yet if interceptions/turnovers are kept in check, run an offense that’s more conducive to winning the game than what we watched last year.

No.

💯❗️

No. The Seahawks didn’t just downgrade they’ll be starting journeyman at QB in a loaded division with a brutal schedule. This team will be lucky to win 3-4 games. They’ll go 0-6 NFCW.

😂😂😂😂😂

Hahahahahaha!! As a Broncos fan, I’ll give that a 99% chance of being a big no. 😂😂🤪🤪

Low bar

😂😂😂😂

SPOILER: No.

I hate to break it to y’all… but drew lock is uhh…. Not good

I'm hoping that the Ewing Effect kicks in lol

Hahaha. No.

Minus the run game there offense was highly ineffective. Soooo….. at the very least it’s probably gonna be close to the same.

It’s not Pete’s obsession to throw deep balls so as to sacrifice 3rd down efficiencies. Pete, since 2015 has talked about 3rd efficiency in almost all his pressers
