Seahawks are gonna run spinner

[Tech Worlds]

According to Pat Kirwin (Pete's buddy).

In obvious passing situations Clemons and Avril on the ends, Bennet lining up over the nose, and Irvin being the spinner. Irvin rushing the passer from a stand up position anywhere along the line. They will move Irvin all over creating a ton of pressure on the opponent's offensive line. Especially at home where they can't make line calls do to the 12th man.

Can't wait for Clemons to heal up so we can see this frenzied package!

I just got a huge woody. This is going to be so much fun to watch. I know this sounds so homerish, but pete is a freaking genious. I can see irvin lining up behind those guys and stunting all over the place. I am giddy.

Thanks for the laugh.

Not my choice of words. It is what Kirwan called it. He has special insight into Carroll's thinking and coaching philosophy.

 

[SNDavidson]

Isn't that essentially what Bruce did in college? Should suit him nicely.

This is what they do in Green Bay with Mathews. They call it "Psycho". I thought
that would be a good move with Irvin. In my opinion he has speed and linebacker
size and this would suit him better than any DE position.

We can rest assured that Pete and Company will test several "rush scenerios" during TC and Preseason. I'm looking forward as to which will work the best....then again, he may not want to "show their hand" in Preseason.

Really . . . Cause no football news has ever been so good as to cause that reaction for me . . .

Dude, for real. CHANGE OF SHORTS, AISLE 3!

This has serious potential. Can't wait. Thanks for the update, Dom.

its only a matter of time until the haters say we have a gimmicky special teams (fake punts), offense, and defense!

Just point them to the 2012 Rams. That was gimmicky. Also clever, and effective. : /

How in the world did Kirwan (or whatever his name is) go and stick us with "Spinner". I mean, the Giants have that NASCAR thing (kinda manly), Green Bay has Psycho (intimidating) and we get "Spinner?" Conjures up house parties in the 70s or something. What was he doing drawing straws between that and "Flipper?"

 

[sc85sis]

Spinner because it's going to make the opposing offensive players' heads spin...

 

[PlinytheCenter]

It's March. What's the saying? In like a three-toed sloth, out like a common house cat? Yeah, that's it. :roll:

 

[Lynch Mob]

I love the concept the possiblity's I think Avril and Irvin could fill this role both have the agility and speed to work thru the line to find the gaps into the backfield. Who ever is at the DE spot i could see big holes opening up on which ever side Avril/Irvin line up on their speed and jump off the snap should cause tackles to play catch up, opening up a lane for blitz the i would think.

Next season is going to be ridiculously fun.

 

[Throwdown]

God, that is a lot for an offensive line to handle!
