So I've been up here in Seattle for a little over a year and a half and have become all too familiar with this team. When I moved up here I found common ground with their focus on teamwork, good defense, solid running game and a passionate fan base, but primarily with their defense. However, as our defense has struggled with dynamic offenses with mobile QB's, the seahawks have thrived and have pretty much shut down everyone who's come in their path. Watching the Panthers game is when they said Pete Carroll has a formula for what type of players he wants at each position and the biggest takeaway I got was from how he went after certain types of defensive linemen. He wants his line to be long and fast to swat passes and take away passing lanes. Which is something you see all the time from their line. I noticed at one point they had 2 down linemen to rush the QB and they had a DE/LB spying Cam at all times.
Do you think Saban could learn from Pete?
