Seahawks vs Commanders Analysis

[DBoys]

I watched the game tonight and I wanted to share what I saw with the Seahawks.

Special teams looks good

Defense
When they blitz they bring the corners
I think they blitz a ton to gaurd against mediocre corners
They use Hamlin as their blitz CB a ton so I think they will miss him
They had trouble keeping up with Moss
The screen pass ate them up a few times because of the blitz
TE for WAS is ate Seattle alive.
Their DL gets no push they have to bring CB or LB to get a blitz
Portis and the WAS OL are moving the DL really well
Defense plays sweeps and outside runs well but give up runs down the middle

Offense
They throw lots of dink passes
They run the bootleg a lot with Hass rolling to the right
Lots of quick throws
Lots of slants
They use the fake bootleg to setup the draw
Ton of play action sometimes handing off sometimes throwing
WR's don't look fast
OL is protecting Hass well
Commander line started to wear down could be a compliment to the Hawks OL

I saw that game few weeks ago. My biggest worry about them is their TE Stevenson. If Roy is left by himself to cover Stevenson, Seattle will win the game.

They throw very well to the middle of the field. And that's where we usually get killed.

Personally, I think we will contain Alexander but I think Hasselback can kill us with those short to medium range passes all day long.

And watch for them to overload Dallas's left side on blitzes so its harder to hide any mistakes by Tucker.
My guess is that Campbell/Witten/Key will be used out of the backfield to help Tucker but that will be mitigated when Seattle overloads that side. That extra blockers will have to man up during blitzes and leave Tucker one-on-one. Throw in some stunts on that side and Tucker will have his work cut out for him.
