    Bevel must commit to the read option ... Or it's all over.

    Too bad Seattle didn't keep RB Rod Smith on the roster

    Looking back with 20-20 vision, it all makes perfect sense: Marshawn goes down and Jackson gets banged up, so Seattle promotes RB Rod Smith from the practice squad.

    Why have the Hawks scaled back the read-option play?

    Last year, Wilson used to run the read-option much more often than he has the last half of this season. Russell also used to sprint off to the side after the mesh even if Lynch had the ball. Sometimes he'd sprint 10 yards down field on a fake. There were also many more planned sprint-out and...
