The Seattle Seahawks offensive line was as Seattle Seahawks offensive line as they could get in the first to weeks, surrendering 12 sacks against Russell Wilson vs the Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears. At least, that’s pretty much what we assumed was the problem given the two-year history of Germain Ifedi and the task of blocking potential Hall of Fame pass rushers in Von Miller and Khalil Mack. Issues ran deeper as the team was without free agent guard D.J. Fluker and was suffering through potential growing pains of second-year guard Ethan Pocic.
Then Fluker returned, J.R. Sweezy took over for Pocic on the left side, and Wilson has gone from six sacks per game to less than two.
