The final numbers for yards before contact are out for the 2017 NFL season, and as expected the Seattle Seahawks finished near the bottom. However, they did not finish at the absolute bottom, simply very close to it.
In fact, while nowhere near good, the Seahawks line created nearly twice as many yards before contact as the worst offensive line in the league in this category, that of the Miami Dolphins. However, as fans may recall, the Dolphins experienced some unanticipated midseason turmoil with their offensive line coach Chris Foerster, following the leak of a controversial video just weeks into the start of the 2017 season.
