Seahawks LT Charles Cross Feels ‘Very Confident in Our Run Game’
The offensive line may be the Seattle Seahawks’ worst-performing position group so far in 2024. Seldom, if at all, has the unit looked confident playing with one another or played a complete game.
Seattle has relied on the passing game to make up for an inconsistent rushing attack and lack of dedication to establishing it by offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb. That’s only put more pressure on the offensive line as they are constantly dropping into protection instead of playing in road-grader mode.
Stone Forsythe, Seattle’s third-string right tackle, has allowed 35 pressures — 16 more than any other offensive tackle in the NFL. Former first-round left tackle Charles Cross is tied for the second-most pressures allowed by a tackle with 19.
The Seahawks’ guards, Anthony Bradford and Laken Tomlinson, are both bottom-10 in their position group in pressures allowed. The lack of a run game is becoming a critical weakness.
Two weeks ago, versus the New York Giants, the Seahawks had just seven carries by running backs. Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet picked up 4.29 yards per carry. In Week 6 versus the San Francisco 49ers, the duo averaged 2.74 yards per carry on 19 carries. That falls on the offensive line not opening up lanes for Seattle’s backs.
“I still feel very confident in our run game,” Cross told reporters on Thursday. “You know, just cleaning up the details, just being focused, and everyone just being together.”
When asked whether those three aspects were all it would take to shore up Seattle’s run blocking, Cross said “Every defense is different,” and the offensive line needs to be “on the same page.”
It’s understandable the offensive line hasn’t fully gelled to this point in the season. The coaching staff hasn’t settled on a long-term right guard, as rookie third-round pick sometimes rotating in for Bradford. Veteran center Connor Williams is dealing with inconsistency around him via the poor guard play. Forsythe is the team’s third-string right tackle.
Cross said offensive line coach Scott Huff has been coaching them on “clean communication” to help make sure all five players are on the same page.
“I feel like we stay together,” Cross said. “We do our best to control what we control. Just trying our best to keep the offense going.”
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Friday they have to develop a more consistent run game to help the offensive line. The offense has been too predictable through six games, and that’s only hindering an already battered front line.
Geno Smith has 27 more pass attempts than any other quarterback in the NFL this season. Walker has missed two games, but he’s also 34th in rushing attempts (51) among running backs while Charbonnet (49) is 39th.
“I think they’re playing really hard. That’s stuff to build off of,” Macdonald said. “I think as a team, we’re putting them in too many situations where just like we want to be on defense. We want to be in situations where we can pin our ears back and rush, rush, rush. But right now, we’re in too many situations as an offense where we’re in obvious pass situations. As a team, we can help our offensive line out.”
Cross’ confidence in the run game is encouraging, but mid-season is approaching quickly. If the Seahawks are going to sort out that area of their offense, it’ll need to happen soon.

SEATTLE – Western Washington is staying locked into a cool and unsettled weather pattern as we head into the second half of the week.
Showers will continue to rotate through the region over the next several days as a series of weather disturbances move overhead, keeping skies mostly cloudy and temperatures running below average for mid-May.
Thursday will bring a brief break in the action before the next weak system arrives later in the day. Expect scattered showers to redevelop with plenty of cloud cover sticking around. Temperatures will remain cool, with highs near 60 degrees.
It will be cool on Thursday in Western Washington with increasing clouds and showers. (FOX 13 Seattle)
What’s next:
The weather turns a bit more active Friday as the next system swings into the Pacific Northwest. Western Washington will see widespread showers and even the possibility of a few isolated thunderstorms. While not everyone will hear thunder, a few heavier downpours and small hail can’t be ruled out if any storms manage to develop during the afternoon.
Rain showers will push through Western Washington again on Friday afternoon. (FOX 13 Seattle)
Saturday will be cool with scattered showers and another chance for isolated thunderstorms, especially near the Cascades. Afternoon highs will struggle to make it out of the 50s across many lowland Puget Sound area communities.
Mountain travelers should also be prepared for a dramatic change compared to the recent warm spell. Much colder air will filter into the Cascades this weekend, and while significant snow accumulation looks unlikely, higher elevations could still see snow showers and sharply colder conditions. Anyone planning outdoor recreation in the mountains should be ready for winter-like weather at times.
Snow levels will drop to near pass levels in the Washington Cascades Friday through Sunday. (FOX 13 Seattle)
Looking Ahead:
The pattern finally begins to improve late in the weekend and into early next week. High pressure is expected to rebuild over the northeastern Pacific, bringing a return to drier weather and some sunshine. Temperatures should gradually rebound back into the 60s by Monday and Tuesday, although the ridge may remain weak enough to allow for occasional clouds at times.
Temperatures will be cool the next three days with showers in Seattle, but next week will be drier and warmer. (FOX 13 Seattle)
