Hawks 12TH

#Seahawks OC Brian Fluery on his offense: "We've improved in certain areas that we wanted to improve. We were able to target some things that we haven't been doing as much. We were able to feature quick game [gain] being one of them, a little bit more efficient there. Tried to show some improvement on third downs; we didn't get the result we wanted, too, but everyone is disappointed in that. In terms of improvement? We are trending in the right direction." Said that the coaching staff came in over the weekend despite most teams taking the day off. But Fluery said that they put in a lot of hours: "Taking the time to look at the film from the first 6 games and evaluate what we are doing well at every level, generally, systematically, even at a position level, highlight some things we can lean into and focus on moving forward to give us something to succeed." Said that there was more process, and more aligned over the weekend States that no one is pounding the panic button so far and that we will see the offense come to life through the season. On being in shotgun a lot during the Broncos game: "Leaned to it during the second half more than I would want to." Basic because he trusted Sam Darnold, wanted to go to Tory and Rashid more because JSN was being doubled, team. On the run gam,e: "Room for improvement, and we can deal with some moving places there. We identify some schemes and movements that we don't have to use as much," Like the block combos, and lean into those more often. Some other stuff they don't want to feature in it. On Zach Charbonnet: "Lots of reinsurance out there. The offensive line has a lot of faith when we give Zach the ball that he is not only going to hit the hole where it is supposed to be, but he can generate and make extra yards, and it's a momentum thing with shared past experience. Not that the other guys can't do that, but they know what they are getting" Also says he looks great and can't wait to get him out there. But excited for that moment to come. On Rashid Shaheed being in the backfield "There are different ways to get him involved. It won't be eliminated from there when Zach gets back here." On Elijah Arroyo: "It is very disappointing to lose Elijah; I was happy with his development. I know that he did not have the pass-catching production that everyone was looking forward to, but he has grown a lot as a player, and we were getting a lot out of using him in different ways of how the defenses were reacting; it is disappointing to lose that element, but I do have a lot of confidence in the three that will have the majority of the snaps now." Fluery says that they have identified what they need to fix and move on. Photo credit: Seahawks Press Pass
