Hasselbeck became a great quarterback in a system that spread the field, and failed in a system that doesn't.
Jeremy Bates believed Matt Hasselbeck could succeed in his offense. That doesn't seem to be true.
What does a defense not respecting the deep pass look like? Safeties short; defensive backs and linebackers closing on the run every snap.
Red Bryant's role as a strongside run stuffer can be filled, but maybe not his ability to set the edge.
What is the expected level of performance for a deep target? Has Seattle performed particularly bad?
Do defenses that sell out to attack the Seahawks short passing game and run game succeed?

Why does the Seahawks offense fail? Is it because of one player or a whole unit, like the offensive line?
A look back on Raiders dominance.
The Great One is back! 33 points is not a common score. Four field goals and three touchdowns? I mean c'mon man. Well that is exactly what happened and that is exactly what The Master said would...
The blowout arrived late, but Seattle's loss started early, gaining traction after a 3 & out to start the 2nd.
