Coaches Film Analysis: 2019 Season

Not to sound like a suck up. But I really do enjoy watching your videos. I appreciate the time you put into them. The newest Seattle review was great. And I'm totally on board with you about Jimmy G.

Agreed, I already love what Jimmy's brought (brings) but thanks for breaking down the nuances. Makes me even more appreciative and excited!

Great stuff as usual! This is becoming my favorite aspect of the Webzone.

Which brings the million-dollar question: What did Seattle do differently in the second half (on offense) that made this game closer than it felt?

And how correctable were our mistakes on defense? In real time, it simply looked like Akhello was the weak link.

Lol. No doubt, but we contained him well in the first half -- or more appropriately, shut him out.

In the Seahawks vs. Rams and Seahawks vs. Cardinals games, Wilson looked human through all 4 quarters. I'm curious what we didn't do [schematically] in the latter 3rd and 4th quarters (on defense).

Johnny, let's see what adjustments Seattle made in the 2nd half to be able to move the ball. If we play them again in the playoffs, what counter adjustments should we make?

The adjustment is Dee Ford. I feel the need, the need for speed.

The list is long and distinguished.....like my Johnson.

Just looking at the numbers, the big difference is the sacks. Rams and Cards got 5 sacks each. He was able to get away for 7 scrambles vs the Niners and was only sacked once.

In my observation it had to do with how patient SEA was in the second half. They did a good job of attacking the flats and being content with 6-8 yard throws. Sometimes it was quick throws, sometimes Wilson would allow the underneath zone defenders to drop into their zones then take the short completion. His elusiveness extended the play to where the secondary gained depth, then he took what the defense was giving. There weren't many chunk plays that the 49er defense surrendered.

It's not just sacks but scheme. Here, JD highlights a few things the Cards did to pwn Wilson all game.

Starts @ 3:20


Scheme:
1. Late defensive rotations (S) to confuse RW when Seattle wasn't in a large personnel package
2. Plan for Fann as an extra TE (dial up blitzes with man)
3. Run blitz and used a favorable alignment esp. to Fann's side

I love knowing that Shanny and Salah are watching this film, preparing for the same matchups next week.

Enjoy Philly, Pete!

In contrast when Seattle put a man in motion versus the Niners in the 2nd half we didn't disquise anything and gave a clear indication to RW what we were going to do. So basically the exact opposite of the success AR had And they were aggressive and sending folks after RW instead of us being passive and having g guy spy on RW.

So more on Saleh than player execution?

My main issue with Saleh is that he just doesn't seem to adjust fat enough and on the fly. The 4 man rush just isn't getting home like it was earlier in the season but he seem very slow to adjust to that. Injury is a part but also the guys have probably tired out some as well and just aren't having the success they had earlier. So it's a combination of both. Seems like in the 1st half of the Seattle game we brought more pressure especially on 3rd downs. I thought Warner and Greenlaw were overly passive at times spying Wilson. Instead of them just attacking RW they were waiting and reacting and letting Wilson attack them.

Some of it was that when you're in zone, the longer the QB has the ball the more those zones are stretched. We got Seattle into a ton of 3rd downs but lost containment on almost all of them, which stretches zones and they had guys open.
Then, when in mam-coverage, we didn't play tight enough. The frustrating thing is that K'waun William's got beat hurt the exact same play on 2 3rd downs on the same drive.

Like, it was literally the same plays. Same formation, same pre-snap movement, same concept.
