Football is a complicated sport. Winning doesn't have to be. Mike Macdonald has been clear about what type of team he wants to be, and history shows two numbers that reflect that identity and how they contribute to winning. I share those, and some Seahawks news in this episode of HB Mornings.

The Seahawks have two young edge rushers, Boye Mafe and Derick Hall, who have shown promise without being dominant. Seattle did not draft any young edge players. They added DeMarcus Lawrence and hope Uchenna Nwosu can be back to full health. This group will be a key part of whether this team escapes the mediocre middle of the NFL.

One of the biggest issues with the 2024 Seahawks was their flailing in the red zone. Turnovers, lack of rushing attack, poor play calling and more, made them one of the least effective red zone teams in the NFL. They have reason to believe 2025 will be far better. I go over this critical aspect of their outlook in this episode of HB Mornings.
