Lynch, 25 rushes, and a few screen passes or outs up the middle when Tenn goes man in 3rd down.
In Indy, sure the calls went against Seattle and our D let the Colts convert too many key 3rd downs but if I had to pick a glaring issue Seattle had that cost them the game, only 17 carries for Lynch? This is the focal point of Seattle's identity, he needs more carries, Pete even has said he gets stronger as the game goes on.
Rice, move Rice around and have him role in the slot a few times, run some trips with screens, anything to get the ball in his hands and get a good look at his movement after the catch.
So far Rice has been a ghost, I don't know if he is done or injured still or what but I have to believe they think he is the #1 guy and the most established vet here. As the only BIG wr on the roster we are going to need him to produce.
Defense, I don't have a lot to say here, I know they gave up some big plays but I'm not going to harp on them fo rthis last game too much but one big thing I hope to see this next week is a return of sure tackling, lots of plays could have been avoided with stopping the guy after he made a play especially in the run game, too many times a scrub like Brown would make 2 more yards after contact when a tackle for a loss or no gain seemed inevitable.
That's all I got, I think they are going to manhandle the Titans this next week even though the Titans D is actually pretty legit I don't have any faith in Fitzpatrick playing close to the level Luck at Indy. Seattle at home is a beast, just want to see more of a grinder Seattle team next week.
