DK Metcalf reflects on season admits tha

The find themselves a mere spectator as the NFL Al Horford Jersey world gears up for Super Bowl LV after they were upset by the during Super Wild-Card Weekend. Part of the reason they are sitting home at this point in the year is thanks to their offense stumbling towards the finish line in 2020.At the start of the season, and company came out gangbusters, averaging over 34 points per game through Week 9. It was at that point when Wilson was looked at as a prime MVP candidate and, as long as Seattle's defense was able to turn Aleksej Pokusevski Jersey things around, the Seahawks were a legit threat in the NFC at 6-2 on the year. From Week 10 on, however, the same offense averaged 22.7 points per game, which includes a 30-20 lo s to Los Angeles to begin and end the Seahawk's playoff run.Wilson himself also regre sed over that same timeframe. Over his first eight games, he completed over 71% of his pa ses, averaged 317.6 pa sing yards per game and had 28 touchdowns to just eight interceptions. In his final eight games to end the regular season, Wilson's completion percentage dropped nearly five points, he averaged 208.9 pa sing yards a game and threw just 12 touchdowns paired with five interceptions. In this playoff lo s to the Rams, Wilson Ricky Rubio Jersey was held to just 174 yards pa sing, the second-lowest mark for him of the season. "Teams just started to figure us out," Seahawks star receiver told former Pro Bowl receiver on the ."We've been running deep pa s, ever since Pete Carroll got there. Play-action. Run the ball, run the ball Darius Bazley Jersey , run the ball, go deep. Teams just said, 'We're just not gonna let you all go deep.'"By reading between the lines of Metcalf's comments, it seems like he believes Seattle's offense became a bit too predictable and one-dimensional, which is backed up by the stats you saw above. With teams e sentially knowing what the Seahawks offense is going to deploy on a weekly basis, defenses can run Cover 2 with confidence and shut down one of the biggest pieces to Seattle's game: the deep ball. Those struggles on offense did lead to the Seahawks , who held that position since 2018. Whoever Deonte Burton Jersey comes in next as Seattle offensive coordinator, Pete Carroll and the rest of the Seahawks bra s will likely be looking for a bit more versatility in the offense and create different wrinkles to keep opposing defenses on their toes in 2021.
