    If you can't see that the Seahawks have a smashmouth reputation and mentality and the Huskies do not then no one can help you

    Here's some statistics that aren't subject to small sample size bullshit:

    Seahawks rank in NFL

    Rushing plays: 1st (13 more than anyone else, 103 more than the team in 16th place)
    Rushing yards: 3rd
    Yards per carry: 5th

    UW's rushing statistics (Pac 12 ranks)

    Rushing plays: 6th
    Rushing yards: 8th
    Yards per carry: 8th

    The Seahawks rushing attack rates better across the board in the 32 member NFL than the Huskies rushing attack does in the 12 member Pac12.

    'Nuff said, case closed, class dismissed, end of discussion.

    Not so fast......Bro!!!!

    QB Rushing Attempts
    Sea- 98
    NE - 23
    Hou - 21
    KC -27
    NYJ - 54
    Minn - 60
    Den - 23
    Chi - 41

    Use RB rushing attempts and they are close to being out of the top ten.

    Seattle threw the ball 402 times. Seattle handed the ball to RB's 430 times. Not exactly as smashmouth as some want to make it out to be.

    The play calling is very similar between Seattle and UW. Seattle definitely is better at running the ball than UW, but that's not because of the plays being called. Might just have something to do with OL talent.

    What do the top 10 rushing attempt teams in the NFL all have in common?





    Wait for it...........................





    They didn't win the Super Bowl!!!!!!

    Good point. It's too bad the Seahawks never use designed QB rushes or the read option. Those 98 QB runs should just be added to the passing total. What a pansy finesse team Carroll has put together.

    The eye test shows that the Seahawks are a smash mouth team while the Huskies are soft. The Seahawks have an attacking defense and they run the ball down people's throats.

    The Huskies........well I don't know what they do well and neither does Sark why he's always changing everything up.
