Commentary: The Seattle Seahawks are entering a new era with the departure of long-time head coach Pete Carroll and the introduction of Mike Macdonald, who steps into his first season at the helm and with big shoes to fill.
Last season, the Seahawks boasted an impressive offense, finishing 10th in both overall EPA/play and passing EPA, with a solid rushing attack ranking 14th. However, the defense was a glaring weakness, ranking near the bottom in nearly every defensive metric. The unit’s performance was a significant factor in their 9-8 record, barely squeezing into the playoff picture. The additions of Tyrel Dodson and Jerome Baker are intended to bolster the linebacker corps.
Despite their strong offensive showing, the Seahawks may have overperformed last season, and with the transition to a new coaching regime, there’s potential for regression.
