Passing this much is not sustainable

That's the big flaw. He'll get sacked and pressured and throw ints throwing that many times.

We'll definitely need to clean up the running game.

Is the line capable of getting push? Seattle struggled against the run last year. I know different seasons in the NFL can yield different results.

No doubt, the run game has to get better.

But, pretty impressive AD throwing for over 400 yards at Seattle when take into account:

Receivers were Boyd (proven), a rookie Willis and Ross considered a bust by the majority of fans. No AJ Green and Dalton sets a record on road against a tough defense behind what you described all off season a poor OL, believe you said worst in the NFL and a bunch of negative attacks on the OL. 

The OL pass protection gave up 5 sacks, but how many drop backs? How many sacks did Seattle give up at home (4) against how many dropbacks?

Whose OL was better yesterday? The one they got 233 yards or the one over 400 yards.

Shame, Bullock missed the FG or we likely win the game in a hostile environment against a team that rarely loses home openers.

But, lots to build upon and hope Mixon injury is not serious.
