| |  | SEATTLE: Under head coach Pete Carroll, the Seahawks have churned out yards behind a zone-blocking scheme, first overseen by Alex Gibbs and now by Tom Cable. They use a lot of inside zone plays to free up Marshawn Lynch for yardage between the tackles. Lynch took a huge workload last year, and could give way to Christine Michael and Robert Turbin a bit more often this season. Seattle also gets a lot of rushing yards out of quarterback Russell Wilson, who takes the option to run on a lot of designed rollouts. The red zone is typically all Lynch all the time, as he had nearly two-thirds of their red zone touches. That won't change this year.
Seattle utilizes Wilson's mobility by moving the pocket around a lot'Wilson also moves when it isn't by design due to his lack of size and Seattle's shaky pass protection. They'll move Percy Harvin around and feature him in catch-and-run situations as the likely focal point of the passing game. The other receivers, some mix of Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Kearse, Sidney Rice and rookie Paul Richardson, will work downfield. They'll use Zach Miller as a check- down option, while Lynch is occasionally used in the screen game. When they throw in the red zone, Miller was most often their top weapon in the end zone.
Seattle led the NFL in scoring defense, total defense, red-zone defense and interceptions in 2013. The 'Legion of Boom' may miss cornerbacks Brandon Browner and Walter Thurmond, but All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman and free safety Earl Thomas still remain. The front seven is still stacked with defensive ends Michael Bennett and Cliff Avril, who combined for 16.5 sacks for the Seahawks last season. | | DENVER: Heading into 2013, the Broncos brought back Alex Gibbs as an offensive line coach to revitalize the zone-blocking scheme. The running game is obviously aided by the threat of Denver's passing game and Peyton Manning's ability to adjust at the line of scrim- mage, but the front five deserves huge credit for the ground game. A year ago, Denver used a committee approach, and they'll always have to rotate to an extent due to the Broncos' fast pace on offense and Denver's thin air. But Montee Ball should have a big workload with most red-zone touches. C.J. Anderson and Ronnie Hillman, if he stops fumbling, will battle for scraps behind him. Denver runs the ball often inside the red zone, mostly because opponents put extra defensive backs on the field down near the goal line. Ball will almost surely take the bulk of the red zone and goal-line carries.
This is a pick-your-poison, catch-and-run passing game. Their bread-and-butter is dinking and dunking, often underneath with Wes Welker and tight end Julius Thomas and in the screen game with Demaryius Thomas and Ball. They're the best screen team in the NFL, especially when using wideouts. They will take some deep shots, a result of opponents crowding the line of scrimmage as the game goes on, with Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders slipping downfield when the opportunity arises. When they throw inside the red zone, they'll use Welker and Sanders for his ability to shake free underneath, or play-action for Julius Thomas.
Denver made plenty of personnel changes on defense with the additions of DE DeMarcus Ware, CB Aqib Talib and SS T.J. Ward, and once OLB Von Miller recovers from his torn ACL, Jack Del Rio's unit will be a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks. |
