Yeah, I meant relative to PFF that has them worst in the NFL. The concerning aspect to me was the tackles regressing. Bob talks about them taking the next step forward where PFF was they better not be as shitty as they were the second half of last season. That's the half empty, half full aspect
We were 9th in points. Seems difficult to pull off with a dogshit O line...

They are not impressed with the line
Seattle’s line largely rests on the development of its young tackles, Charles Cross and Abraham Lucas. While both played well early, each fell off substantially as their rookie seasons wore on. If those tackles play well, this ranking is too low. But if they don’t improve, this is a group that could struggle badly given its interior personnel

Same could be said of Woolen and Geno.....I am happy we have an all new D line.

True, it's definitely a half empty sort of attitude, what does PFF know about O lines anyway

Seattle Seahawks Love/Hate:

Love: Geno Smith’s redemption story shut us all up, and given how he played a season ago, that should definitely continue into 2023.

Hate: He may be back at practice, Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s fractured wrist does not exactly give us the “warm and fuzzies.”
