It's long but good. Doug Farrar has been in Cam's corner a lot.

What confused me was the author talking about us getting away from the spread, yet all the comments for Hawks players was about defending the option/spread.

Which tells me the Seahawks are focusing on the wrong thing and there may be something to this move to a more traditional gameplan.

Not only was the read option something that was overused last season, I seen personally at the end of the year that it didn't fit our personnel.  You don't build a team of road graders, and then make them have to zone block.  That is why we were murdered especially during the Giants and Cowboys game.  Their athletic d-lines just out ran our blockers to the point of the attack.  Later in the season though, we went smash mouth and started to turn things around.

First play is a shotgun handoff to Dwill for no gain. I will flip a table.
