The Seahawks will really need Carlos Hyde this year

Marshawn Lynch once ran the ball for 285 times in a single season.

Then he ran the ball over 300 times in a season, twice. In a row.

Then he really eased up (280 carries) but gained more yards and had more receptions than the previous year.

The point is this: the Seattle Seahawks have never run the ball the same since prime Marshawn Lynch. Throw talent out the window, they’ve never had any one runner carry nearly as many teammates on their back as Lynch did. Chris Carson has not yet hit 280 carries, and he absolutely will not do so this year.
