Will the LA Rams face a mirror image of offense in the Seahawks?

Russell runs that offense

I suppose using the term “play-calling” and the Seahawks offense is a bit of a misnomer, anyway. Every team in the NFL pretty much realizes that it really doesn’t matter one iota who’s calling the plays from the sidelines.

Their entire offense has been, will be (and probably ever shall be) predicated on QB Russell Wilson running around like the proverbial chicken with his head cut off and evading would-be tacklers just long enough to chuck something, anything (can you say a prayer?) downfield and hope that either Tyler Lockett or D.J. Metcalf might run under it.

You know, that whole “Let Russ Cook” mumbo-jumbo nonsense. How’d that work out for y’all?

Indeed, worked so well, that the little petulant QB whined all off-season that he was getting hit too much by the likes of the Aaron Donalds and Chandler Joneses of the NFC West. Waaaaah!

On the other hand, you could envision that the Seahawks’ running game will be less smash-mouth and predictable under Waldron and Dickerson than it was under former Seahawks’ OC Brian Schottenheimer, who was fired after last season. But then, his between-the-tackles, straight into the line approach was little more than the old “three yards and a cloud of dust” Woody Hayes school of football approach, anyway. I further suppose that team will now rely more on its running backs catching short passes out of the backfield, as Waldron likes to do.

Too bad injury-prone RB Chris Carson got two Roberto Duran hands. Ya know, “hands of stone.”
