Offenses ran. And scored.
So final evening Joe researched what to anticipate from new Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales.
Canales, 41 was on Pete Carroll’s employees on the College of Southern California and left USC in 2010 for Seattle with Carroll. He’s been a fixture there since however has by no means been a playcaller.
Carroll is an old-school defensive coach. And that reveals in his Seattle offenses. What do previous defensive coaches love to do? Run the ball although it’s a passing league.
Solely 3 times since 2010 have the Seahawks completed the season within the prime half of the league in move makes an attempt. Even then, the high-water marks had been two separate seasons the place the Seahawks completed fifteenth within the league in move makes an attempt.
Regardless of Carroll overseeing largely a ground-and-pound offense run by his offensive coaches (together with Canales), Seattle discovered a option to rating factors.
Since Carroll and Canales got here to Seattle, the Seahawks discovered a option to end within the top-10 in factors per sport eight occasions. Whereas the Bucs had been top-four in points-per-game annually Arians coached, they plummeted to twenty fifth underneath failed offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich final season. It was one of many deepest single-season scoring plunges in NFL historical past.
And that was with Tom Brady!
