Awesome offensive line play

[TDOTSEAHAWK]

People will say much of this win - but really our offensive line looked good for the first time this season.

Interestingly, our play calling also looked much better.

 

[Sports Hernia]

Yes both of those facets were great today!

 

[Hawkstorian]

Like what I saw when Bailey was in there.

 

[Evil_Shenanigans]

A lot to do with the opponent but the OL looked pretty damn respectable today.

So glad to see an offense that wasn't offensive!

The growth of Bailey and Bowie are making our 1st round pick prime pickings. If they continue to grow, we can do whatever we want with that 1st pick. Awesome. Bailey is making a case to get a start. Looks like a complete steal...and yes it's still early.

We finally played a D-line that isn't "the best D-line in the league" like we do every other week.

The o-line did look a lot better today, was very happy to see that. Also, I am usually not a fan of swapping lineman in and out of the game, but I really like how they did it with bailey today.

Boy, I wish PC and JS were good at getting us line depth.

A week of how genius Tom Cable is?

 

[Leee-roy]

Much improved. They'd be even better if the opposition didn't know the snap count.
A bunch of times today I saw the D line (atlanta's) take off at the snap, before the O line moved.

 

[falcongoggles]

Things back to respectable level. Phew!

seemed like Baily was all over the place.....anyone got a breakdown?

I was thinking all week that the OL was due for a decent game. I had a good feeling the last couple of days but kept it to myself because I didn't want to jinx anything. What really helped was the rotation. Putting Bailey in more helped with keeping guys fresh. Bailey played LT and RT today. They even took out Sweezy for a couple of plays and let Bowie play RG. Everything they did seemed to work.

Balley was a steal. Still don't know why he went undrafted...but I'm glad he's a Seahawk. He has a tremendous upside and hopefully he continues to improve.

Injuries to our starters this year is creating lots of depth on our OL. Lemuel Jean Pierre, Bowie and Bailey really look good. Perhaps after a few more weeks of seasoning and we will be thinking that our first couple round draft picks don't need to be spent on OL after all.

Funny how things are so week to week in the NFL. With Kearse's development I don't know if we need to draft a big play wide receiver. I was super worried about our run D (especially without Red Bryant), but our run D looked great.

Right now I think our greatest need in the draft might be a bigtime TE (especially considering what we are paying Miller).

 

[Happypuppy]

I don't know if it was the players as much as rotation like on the D line. Seems like we played everyone

 

[sedrohawk]

you guys are not allowed to praise the o-line on this forum

 

[capncrunch]

There were actually some plays, not every time, where Wilson had time to throw. Some a lot of time and some just enough time. I also remember seeing some good blocks by the running backs as defensive players broke through allowing for Russ to make a nice throw. It's been a long time since they did this well. Wow, that makes life easier.

Robinson back helps.
