You have a unit that hasn't played together with a rookie LG, a new RG, a part-time C, and possibly a backup LT if Glenn can't go. Factor in the crowd noise in Seattle that may make them a half step slower off the ball and you might have a recipe for disaster.
That was why I mentioned the slide and a chip. If we watched all preseason they don't hold the ball long, so I am not sure the pass rush will have much of a chance to get home. All our shots tend to come off play action, which also helps a bit in terms of slowing down the rush. I like the scheme so far I am looking forward to seeing what other wrinkles get added. I have a suspicion that John Ross will be seen in motion a lot looking for ways to free him up at the line and as a decoy.
